TTL (Through the Lens)

Posted by Manson Yang on

Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Romans 12:2 As someone who loves photography, I love to explore different settings on my camera in the hope that I can take better pictures! The challenge, or in fact the fun part, in low...

Wake-up Calls

Posted by Eric Farmer on

I’m confident if we all thought for a moment, we could remember some close calls in our life. Events that could have easily gone either way and changed the fate of that day, that trip or that relationship. Maybe you were a teenager and almost got caught by your parents, maybe you were a...

Posted by Derrick Liu on

Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask Him! Matthew...
