If you don't know where you fit in this white evangelical spectrum, you don't know when you're (as AAPI) are being used. #aapijesuspolitics

TBH It's incredibly healing & hopeful to be in an intergenerational gathering of AsAms to engage in faith & politics #AAPIJesusPolitics

When we respond out of fear, we have difficulty thinking rationally. We go to binary thinking. ~Dr. Jessica ChenFeng #AAPIjesuspolitics

Fascinating to sit in a room of mostly people who I don't recognize, thinking/discussing/learning about my own AAPI lens. #aapijesuspolitics

saving knowledge at open.djchuang.com

What I like to do is share freely for the good of humanity. There are plenty of people that want to make money from the things they do for other people. Make no mistake, I need to make money to pay the bills, too. I am not financially independent. But, in my free time, I like to be generous in sharing information and resources. That’s why I do what I do at open.djchuang.com – which is powered by the New Google Sites.

Not salvation in the Christian sense

Not to be confused here, I am not using religious jargon and terminology when using words like saving or knowledge, or good, or evil. In a certain context and in a certain book, those may have specific particular meaning. On this blog post and in that website, it’s mostly just the generic meaning of those plain English words.

What is your personal calling or vocation?

What previous generations searched for in life was its meaning, significance, and purpose. You know, the timeless question of what is the meaning of life. In recent years, there’s a lot of chatter about calling. In my life experience, I’ve found the word calling to be varied and broad in its meaning and application.

The most powerful process I’ve experienced to date that helped me to discern the essence of my personal calling is related to this life visioning process now called Younique.

Get Bible Based, Personal Breakthrough with a Plan to a Dream Job

Will Mancini explained this process was 10 years in the making: Younique launched as a new training company that brings a simple and powerful Life Plan experience to believers everywhere. It’s not just a brand new life planning process. It’s the first personal calling and life visioning experience for the church, thru the church to release the church.

The official website for this Younique company that helps churches and individuals discover their personal callings is lifeyounique.com – Younique is a life-long process of discovering and living out your unique life call.
