Download or read book Money Matters written by R. Paul Stevens and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-26 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide to investing in heaven and being “rich toward God” Christians often hesitate to talk about money in spiritual contexts, but in the gospels Jesus talks more about money than about “religious” topics like prayer and heaven. Money Matters advocates following Jesus’s lead in engaging with matters of economy and finance in a faith-driven way, in both our individual and our corporate lives. The authors draw on their contrasting life experiences to offer a well-rounded look at money in the twenty-first century. Paul Stevens, who grew up well-off in Canada and worked as a carpenter, a banker, and later a pastor and professor of theology, finds a complementary voice in Clive Lim, who grew up without money in Singapore, and now works there as an entrepreneur and head of a family investment firm. With frequent scriptural references, Stevens and Lim offer insight into navigating the economic systems of today, aiming to help individuals, churches, and societies become faithful stewards who store up “treasures in heaven” by investing in the kingdom of God. Money Matters is a comprehensive yet accessible guide to integrating one’s faith with one’s approach to money. Just as the Bible variously treats money as a blessing, a sacrament, and a problem, so do Stevens and Lim approach this matter judiciously—avoiding the prosperity gospel on one side and the demonization of material wealth on the other. Capitalism is treated as what it is: a system that has created widespread opportunity and relieved poverty for millions while also exacerbating the gap between the haves and the have-nots. The authors’ wisdom is at turns theological, historical, and practical—and always focused on what it means to live with faithful integrity in our contemporary global economy.

Book excerpt: A wonderful new novel from Catherine Lim - a modern love story of east meets west set in the author's native Singapore. Never before has Yin Ling appeared in such splendour. Perched in the bridal car with her mother-in-law to be, in layers of unaccustomed make-up, bedecked with the jewels of her fiance's family, she is about to marry into one of the richest and most influential clans in Singapore. But on the way to the ceremony the car passes through a destitute area of the city and Ling catches sight of a scene of death - a terrible omen for a bride. Instead of looking away, Ling stops the car and goes to look. It is a dead baby, abandoned. Despite her finery Ling picks it up. So begins Catherine Lim's new novel. Ling - poor, beautiful, an outstanding student and a poet - is to marry Vincent Chee, a rich PhD student from a very traditional, upper-class family. She will become a dutiful wife, not the existence of her dreams, but the Chees' money and influence is essential, for her mother has cancer and they cannot abandon a faithful old servant, Ah Heng Cheh. However, the mapping out of Ling's future doesn't proceed smoothly. Almost against her will, and through her poetry, she meets outspoken American professor, Ben Gallagher, who threatens to overturn everything. Ling must make her choice: east or west, head or heart. The birth of a son makes her moral predicament even more agonizing.

Download or read book Son of Singapore written by Tan Kok Seng and published by Epigram Books. This book was released on 1974 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A publishing sensation in the 1970s and 1980s, Son of Singapore traces the extraordinary upbringing of an Everyman. As a Teochew farm boy coming of age during the Japanese Occupation, Tan Kok Seng enters the “university of the world” at only 15, becoming a coolie at the Orchard Road market. On his rounds to the homes of the “Red Hairs”, he befriends a group of Chinese dialect-speaking Caucasians who inspire him to improve himself beyond his humble roots. Set against Singapore’s push towards self-governance, Tan’s engaging autobiography reflects the pioneering spirit of the times. Written in deceptively simple prose, notable for its English transliteration of Teochew adages, Son of Singapore sensitively captures fast-disappearing places, people and everyday ways of living.

Download or read book Experience the Living God written by Lily Liu Wong and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-01-13 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I was born in Taiwan. In 1974, I came to the United States of America for my graduate study. I received two master's degrees, one in music education and the other one in piano performance. My whole life revolved around the piano. It was my mother's will that she dedicated me to serve the Lord with this instrument. At age six, I started learning to play the piano. I was baptized at age twelve. At age fifteen, I served as the Sunday worship service pianist at my local church in Taiwan. The year 1990 was my turning point back to God. I thanked God for the crisis that happened in my life. By his guiding and loving hand, he changed me from a lukewarm Christian to a disciple of Jesus Christ. I have lived in Norman, Oklahoma, for thirty three years as a piano teacher. I am a member of Southern Oklahoma Chinese Baptist Church and have served as choir director, Sunday school teacher, chair of the mission department, and Sunday worship service pianist. In 2004, God led me into Bible Study Fellowship International. Two years later, I was called by God to step out of my comfort zone and into the leadership circle by becoming a group leader where I still serve up to now. Through serving and walking with Jesus, I have experienced so many miracles from our Lord, just as Jesus promised abundant life for his believers. Philippians 3:13""14 (ESV) says, "I do not consider that I have made it my own, but this one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus."
