ADHD Support Group
Christians often have access to resources for managing ADHD from the greater ADHD community, but can struggle to find support within our faith community. This group is to support Christians who want a safe place to reconcile our Christian faith and ADHD, and who want to support the neurodivergent community in church. We will meet weekly or biweekly to share about our lives as Christians with ADHD, exchange strategies for living fruitfully with ADHD, and pray for one another. This…
Understanding the New Testament
Have you ever received a package, opened it, and thought, “Wait, I didn’t order this. What even IS this?” Sometimes we have a similar feeling while reading the Bible. We struggle to see how certain passages have anything to do with us, as if parts of Scripture have surely arrived at our address by mistake. Even though the New Testament is often studied in church, there are still many confusing passages. To better understand the Bible and make sense of…

My Testimony as Evangelism
Sarah, a curious skeptic, met Jake, a passionate believer, at their local Beijing gym. One day, over post-workout smoothies, Jake shared the transformation he had seen in his life after coming to faith. Intrigued, Sarah agreed to visit his church. She sensed a genuine atmosphere of community and love, and felt a profound spiritual shift. Over time, inspired by Jake’s testimony and the hope it offered, Sarah embraced Christianity. Interestingly, sharing his testimony wasn’t something that came naturally to Jake.…
Who is God the Father
John had always struggled with understanding who God the Father truly was. His prayers felt distant, and he often wondered about God’s character and attributes. Seeking clarity, he decided to attend Discipleship Class offered by his church, which promised to delve into the nature of God. During the sessions, John learned about God’s holiness, love, and justice. This new understanding made God feel more real and approachable to John. If you have the same struggle as John, of simply want…

Who is God the Son
After completing his master’s in the UK, Roger returned to Beijing, excited to share that he found Jesus. But, as Roger shared more of his story, it was obvious to a friend that the Jesus Roger was introduced to is vastly different from the Jesus of the Bible. After a few probing questions, this friend realized Roger had unintentionally joined a cult called the Jehovah’s Witnesses. Of course, you can encounter cults and false teachings about Jesus anywhere you go,…
Singleness
Have you ever received a gift you didn’t want but had to use? Maybe a tacky Christmas sweater to wear in those yearly family pictures, or an ugly mug from your boss that has to stay on your desk at work? Singleness is a gift that many consider far worse than a tacky sweater or ugly mug. For many, it’s impossible to see its beauty, use, or how the God who gives it could possibly understand them if THAT’s what…
