My Vision

My vision is to someday be a missionary in China. God called me there when I was 10 years old. He used a youth pastor and told me that I would be missionary in China someday. I did not really feel like that is what God wanted for me at the time, but now I do. There is a great need for missionaries. There are many people there that have not heard about the gospel yet, and the people that do, do not have the Bible and Christian literature to grow in their walk with the almighty God that loves them so much. I want to be used by God in bringing them the things they need.

My Preparation

Though I am only 15 years old, I feel that I should start preparing now for the mission field. First, God is preparing my heart through Bible verses that I have read and through people I have met. I want him to help me love the people of
China like He loves them. Secondly, I am preparing mentally, by going to the Bible college, and learning and memorizing more about the Bible. I am learning Chinese through high school to better equip me to communicate with people there. The rest of my studies are teaching me the skills I will need to have living there. The mission field can be very aggressive, so I am also preparing by training physically, by running, lifting weights, eating right, and many other things. I practice survival skills and camping in the wilderness to better help me in the mission field of China.

Current Spiritual Conditions


Christians in China have a hunger for God’s Word and desire to learn more about Him. They are currently under a communist government that does not let them worship God in their own way. The government has lightened up somewhat by creating government run

    The Poisonwood Bible is a book about the reactions that can be made with the burden of collective guilt; to be specific, to our complicit guilt as citizens of the United States for the misconduct by our nation in the Congo. The Poisonwood Bible is an allusion of an event that triggers the life of a family to be burden with guilt in the Congo. The title of the book is what describes the whole book. The Poisonwood Bible is an increased prosecution of Western colonialism and post-colonimalism, an expose of cultural arrogance and self-indulgence.…

    The birth of a child seems natural to the physicians that help with the delivery process. Yet, religious midwives believe that it is a natural miracle caused by God. Unlike naturalist, the Christian, Fall, and Redemption (CFR) approach adopts the Godly and natural view. According to author Angela M. Sabates, the naturalist approach is that reality compromises material substances, and the immaterial (God, soul, mind) either does not exist or is irrelevant to an empirical investigation because it cannot be measured. The unseen is a hoax that cannot be proven real. Evidently, the reality of naturalism consists of observable facts and solid material explanations. Life origin, the purpose of life, self-seeking tendencies, fundamental need for…

The two dynasties we will be looking at are the Han and Yuan dynasties. During the Han and Yuan dynasties, religious played a major part in their culture, government, and politics.…

    I gladly accept my call to serve in the California Rancho Cucamonga Mission. I have been super excited thinking about where I will go to serve and teach the gospel. Thoughts have been running through my mind about how my friends and I have received our mission calls in the past couple of weeks and the similarity of the sons of Mosiah in the beginning of their missionary years. A good righteous group of friends going to serve the people and bring them unto Christ. Thinking about the idea of serving and wanting to be an excellent missionary like Ammon and the other sons of Mosiah has made my heart leap for joy. The scripture Mosiah 28:3 has been running through my head as well (3) Now they were desirous that salvation should be declared…

    I felt that this was God's calling to follow my childhood passion, but unfortunately it has not worked out the way I had planned or thought. I have tried to make my time here a mission that God has instilled in me and to remain positive among all negative situations, but it has not been easy. The school I work at has many problems within the administration and staffing and it is far from a safe situation to be in. I left my family and all I knew to perform this position and am extremely disappointed of what has come in it, but know that God has a plan through all I do. I miss and crave the servant lifestyle and youth ministry greatly. I have tried finding weekend services and churches to go to, while here, but nothing has worked out, partially to the fact that my time is all put in to my job. Serving in TC was the time of my life, in each ministry- Teens, Kids, Hospitality, Baptism, Care-Kids, and Groups- Assistant Leader. I long for it, and hope to come back to…

    The Rise of Christianity by Rodney Stark offers a sociological view of the growth of Christianity during the first four centuries A.D. The book provides a new perspective on how Christianity won the West. According to Stark, early church historians and the New Testament itself claimed that Christianity grew in number despite an unsuccessful plight to the Jewish population of Rome. Stark rejects many of conventional claims such as this one, and claims that Christianity grew rapidly because of miraculous demonstrations that drew large numbers of converts. Mr. Stark uses a quantitative approach to explain his theories on how Christians could have gained so many converts without miraculous methods.…

    In china religion is the subject of persecution. Just last year a man by the name of Cai Zhuohua was convicted of conducting " illegal Business Practices" (Pan 1) for simply printing copies of the bible and giving them away for no profit and was sentenced two to three years in prison. But the Chinese government did not see it that way; the government viewed it as "Infiltration" (Pan 2). The Chinese government claimed the reason he was prosecuted was because only the "official state controlled church is authorized publisher of bibles and other religious works" (Pan 2). Cai's wife and brother in law were also convicted, but their sentencing was much lighter, two year and eighteen months sentences. Even though the State Bureau of Religious Affairs knows about this case they still state "' there is no so-called persecution of religious people' in china" (Pan…

    Situated upon a small hill in Shatin, Tao Fung Shan is the perfect location for a missionary site. However, Tao Fung Shan struck myself, and undoubtedly any other new visitors, as its appearance does not reflect its Christian roots. Instead, the context was wholly Chinese with the buildings constructed in the typical Chinese traditional style. The gardens were in a typical Asian-Pacific style which involves having the garden enclosed within the outer walls as opposed to the surrounding the structures. The purpose of the mission was also highly interesting as the targeted audience of the mission were not laymen but instead, Buddhist monks and practitioners.…

    Since I actively participate in church activities, I begin to acknowledge that Christianity is not allowed in China. I heard from my church friend if one was caught by preaching the gospel or participating in underground church activities, one will be detained, interrogated, beaten and tortured. I fear for myself that I would be suffering from the same persecution if I were returned to China. I do not want to lose my freedom of religion. Some of church friends were persecuted by the Chinese government and escaped to the U.S.…
