Lukewarm Christianity | Fight against Lukewarm Christianity

Today is Valentines day and here are 10 things on what women want from their men. From what I've learnt over the years of dating and months of marriage, my wife is the same. Thankfully, I learnt this early on and have been applying it since. When I was growing up, I never received much compliments, encouragement or affection from my parents. My dad believed that complimenting me too often… [....]

My wife and I got married in Korea and we decided not to throw another reception party when we got back as our expenses were out of control. But once we returned one of my wife's friend started criticizing and scolding her for being disrespectful to our friends and elders. She didn't even consider our situation (one job, school & credit card debt, honeymoon debt...), we felt hurt and angry… [....]

Had a rough day today but thankfully instead of complaining and whining, I remembered a verse from our family devotion yesterday. This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. (Psalm 118:24) As bad as the day may get, God made the day for a reason. I don't understand why but in due time he will let me know. Until then, there is a need to… [....]

I finally learnt what it meant for the Christian life to live according to the Bible. For so many years when I went to churches, conferences, cell groups and retreats, I always felt good. I felt so alive and free. It was like honey in the mouth. However, I must have always spat out the honey when I got back to daily life because I never fully digested it. By digesting… [....]

On Saturday night I had the chance to attend an open worship for Wagner Leadership Institute (WLI) which is a new type of ministry school. It's not the typical seminary where you learn about the theory of the Bible, but it is a school that also deals with strategic impartation and activation. I'll try to explain what I heard that night which should explain what "strategic impartation and activation"… [....]

I came to learn another method of worshiping my fantastic God. By writing songs. I've always felt this urge to write a poem or song and one Saturday morning, as I was having breakfast and reading Every Man's Battle,I was in awe of God. So I put the book down, grabbed pen and paper and started writing. I showed my wife and she was so excited. She immediately sat on the… [....]

I don't believe I've ever handled stubborn and ignorant people very well, because I was one of them. There's the saying that "it takes one to know one". Well, I am ashamed to say that I do not have a very good relationship with my boss. Since I work at a pure Korean company based in USA, upper management is always filled by people from Korea who are… [....]

Doesn't it seem like today's churches are just so friendly and pleasing on the ears? No one talks about real, life crunching issues and it seems like too many churches preach only on the things that we want to hear like how God will bless us and how He will our love and wealth on us. These messages are all great but what about sex? the power of the internet?… [....]

I am the type of person where once I start something, I go deeper and deeper into it. e.g. I'm not the greatest on the guitar but I still play regularly and spent a fair amount of time trying to improve. Same goes for photography which has now become one of my dominant hobbies which eventually led me to other disciplines in photo editing, videos and a little graphic design… [....]

So what is a lukewarm Christian? To put it briefly, it is a person who desires his own personal agendas above God's. It is a person that compromises God's standard for his own. But since you are like lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth! (Revelation 3:16) Why is this important? Because I believe a lukewarm Christian can lose their salvation. By definition a Christian… [....]
