Bridging the Gospel

J. Peterson was in town in March. We had the privilege to listen to his sharing during his visit. He shared about bridging the gospel in our relationship. Why do we need to bridge the gospel?

One has to acknowledge that God created man in His likeness (Gen 1:26) and thus, God is the creator. The Bible also acknowlegdes that God exists long before the creation (Ecc 1:10) and He has a plan for human since the creation (Gen 2). In the New Testaments, we are told that we are chosen to be holy and blameless before Him (Eph 1:4). And we bear this image of God to bridge the gospel to our surroundings. It doesn't take much effort like being the salt and light (Mat 5:13-14). It needs some initiative, prayer, serving and seeking together.

Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route

Just came back from Japan last week. Went to Tokyo for conference and added side trip to Tateyama Alpine Route and Kanazawa. I must say that Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route was great. You can do the trip either from Nagano side or Toyama side. For us, we did it from the Nagano side. Took the Shinkansen to Nagano early morning. Then boarded the express bus to Ogizawa. From there, we boarded the tunnel electric bus to get to Kurobe Dam. From the dam, it was all the way up to the peak (almost). Murodo is the highlight of the route. This is the place where you get to see snow covered peak and lake. In spring, there's snow wall nearby Murodo station. From Murodo, we descended to Bijodaira and Tateyama Station to catch the local train back to Toyama. The fare for the entire route is not cheap, but it's worth it. A hike from Bijodaira to Murodo should be interesting, which can be considered in future. View from the tunnel electric bus, onward to Kurobe Dam Arrived at Kurobe Dam View of t...

Trip 01-06: Day 8-9 (The end)

Day 8-9 (13-14 May) We proceed to Thailand in the morning. The immigration process was the easiest. We crossed the river by boat and reached Chiang Khong (the border town of Thailand). Then a mini van to Chiang Mai. Arrived in Chiang Mai about 4pm. Looked for a cheap room and then had an excursion around the town. The next day we will depart and back to M'sia. It has been a pleasant trip for the whole week. Laos is a beautiful and peaceful country with abundant of unspoiled forest and mountains. Now we have to get back to our real life. End of the trip.
