Letters from the Equator

6 Months Working
Friday marked the 6th month my wife has been at her job. That’s a good cause to celebrate, though I screwed up our dinner date coming home late from work Friday night. So we went out for a nice dinner at Tupelo Honey tonight, instead. Check out the restaurant from streetview.
I realized that [...]

update: This isn’t a post about proselytizing/evangelism/converting people. It’s about people understanding who I am.
One of the things I do very rarely on this blog is talk about my faith. And I admit it’s because of the expectation I think people have of me (which isn’t always as expectation I place on myself), and I [...]

I just got back from Port Dickson over the weekend. We were at a cell group camp, and the theme was discussing families, and it was good, and I got a bit of that nap time I wanted, though I think I would really love 24 hours of non-stop sleep.
Things are really picking up at [...]

My wife and I would have gone through 2 years of matrimony in a few days’ time. Some people say that it’s the same as having a girlfriend come stay with you. But I don’t see it that way.
The past two years have been quite “easy” on us. [...]

I was facilitating a bible study group for young teens the other day. We were studying about Spiritual Growth. And as usual, everyone struggles to see how their faith takes place in their daily life, as though going through the motions without thinking anymore.
