In the Apostles’ Creed, which was in circulation during the early days of the church, the section specifically concerning the Holy Spirit was very brief, consisting mainly of the profession: “I believe in the Holy Spirit”. By the 4th century, with the development of Trinitarian theology, the divinity of the Holy Spirit and His relationship with the Father and the Son became increasingly important theological issues. It was not until the early 20th century, with the rise of the Pentecostal movement, that discussions concerning the gifts of the Holy Spirit, being filled with the Holy Spirit, and the work of the Holy Spirit gradually gained wider attention within the modern church.

In fact, every Christian ought to have a thorough understanding of the Holy Spirit. Since Jesus’ ascension, the Holy Spirit has been carrying out important work within the church and in the lives of believers.

This book is divided into four sections, comprising a total of 43 chapters. It is hoped that this book will help believers gain a fresh understanding of and trust in the Holy Spirit, and that in these last days, they may come to have a deeper and truer knowledge of Jesus Christ!

The history of the Puritans constitutes a pivotal chapter in American history, forms part of the history of missions, and serves as a mirror through which we may discern God’s redemptive history.

Abraham Chan reveals the impact of Puritan history on America, and the insights their faith and values offer us today. Presented as “life’s final lessons”, the book invites us to immerse ourselves more readily in these people and events. Through a resonance of spirit with spirit, we may together savor the flavor of the Lord’s grace.

Modern life resembles a tiny screw in a rapidly spinning gear. For those living in today’s bustling cities and facing intense pressures, “retreats” offer precious healing for the soul!

Over the years, a group of brothers and sisters longing to draw closer to the Lord have organized retreats on multiple occasions. These retreats with Christ’s presence serve as verdant oases in the wilderness, offering weary pilgrims a respite for body and soul.

This book chronicles the faith journeys of over 30 retreat participants—their encounters with the Lord and their growth experiences—which may inspire readers to return to rest.

The church today is facing the urgent challenge of spiritual confusion. Many believers are inadvertently exposed to the spiritual realm but lack the ability to distinguish between the true and the false. At the same time, the church generally lacks a systematic method of testing and expulsion, which allows demons to lurk for a long time without being detected.

This five-part book is based on the Bible, and it establishes a practical system for distinguishing the true from false in the spirit world, effective testing and exorcism, and with a variety of practical illustration tools, in-depth analysis of multiple real cases, both theoretical and practical, to equip the church with the “spiritual examiners” needed in the spiritual age.

Many times, the world is full of unexpected difficulties that one can’t prevent. This book “Tea and Talk” illustrates the various difficulties and obstacles encountered on the road of life. It contains 20 life stories, all of which are true stories. The protagonists of each story experience different difficulties, such as the trouble of self-identity, the breakdown of a marriage between Hong Kong and China, the problems of a single-parent family, the conflicts with children and family members, the love song with a disabled person, and the collapse of a family pillar, which all make the protagonists feel frustrated, helpless, angry or anxious.

The author is a professional counselor. She used “Bottom of the Cup” as her pen name to express her willingness to be a vessel to contain people’s life stories, and to give them a sip of tea when they encounter difficulties, so that they can regain their strength to move forward. When counseling different cases, the author enters into the lives of the recipients, greeting them with care and listening to them, triggering their ability to solve problems and finding a way out together. Reading this book may bring tears to your eyes, but the love it contains will make you feel that there is love in the world!

The author is a veteran writer who has been involved in the Christian publishing ministry for years, studied in seminary, and has always been fond of poetry. He has published the first volume of “Daily Meditation with 365 Devotional Rhymes”, and the second volume has been published after two years!

The unique feature of this book is the use of rhyming sentences to summarize the spiritual insights and outline the key points of the scriptures. The words are clear and rhyming, easy to remember and understand, thus adding a rhythmic flavor to the daily devotions! As Dr. Wilson Chow says in the preface, “The verses are listed every day, the key verses are pointed out, and there are concise rhymes. Readers can read and meditate in this order, and devote themselves to listening to the Word of God and entering into the experience of spiritual fellowship with Him.”

May the Lord use this book to lead people into His Word and deeply experience spiritual fellowship with Him!

Christianity is actually a “cross-cultural” faith. To fully understand it, the “cross-cultural” experience is indispensable. Christianity originates from ancient Israel. Although Judaism has undergone many changes, it has still maintained a lot of traditional cultures. This dictionary has about 1,200 entries from Yiddish, Hebrew, Aramaic, and English. They cover the Jewish customs, traditions, festivals, history, beliefs, and religious documents, which help us understand the Jewish traditions, and thus help us understand Christianity more, and lead us to love the Word of God.

What do young people look for today? When reading History in early high school, they learn the Reformation Movement in the 16th century, of which Martin Luther was a key figure. This book is easy to read, being neither long nor dogmatic. It explores how the life of Martin Luther can fit into the life of young people today and what they can learn from him. For example, Martin Luther was a gifted student with his own way of looking at things. He was inquisitive, critical and able to think independently rather than follow the generally accepted trend. He would go to the bottom of issues to form his own views. All these are positive attributes that young people should seek today. May this book inspire young people to reflect on their situation and encourage them to seek the truth of the Gospel to benefit the world.

Why did an English teacher give up her stable job in a band 1 middle school to pursue Christian ministry in a completely strange land in Uganda? This teacher writes about her experiences in Moody Bible Institute, the difficulties she encountered, God’s guidance in each step along the way and how she responded to God’s calling to serve African orphans. In this book, she talks about how she followed the example of stone pitching by the Israelites after crossing River Jordan as recorded in chapter 7 of Joshua. She pitched 7 stones to symbolize the attributes God revealed to her in her journey of faith, namely omniscience, faithfulness, wisdom, omnipotence, beauty, mercy and love.
Published in both Chinese and English, this book is suitable for students in high schools and tertiary education. Apart from sharing her valuable experience, the writer also encourages readers to step out of their comfort zone with confidence, broaden their perspective and extend their love and care for orphans in the famine-and-war-stricken African countries.

How despairing bereavement could be! After her beloved husband, Rev. Fred Cheung, went to be with God, the writer was devastated and felt that her world had collapsed. At times, she thought that God was not with her any more or was silent. But she clutched tight to God’s hand which guided her through her difficult times. In the process, she turned darkness into light and despair into hope, learning how to live meaningfully for the rest of her life on earth and prepare for the eternal life thereafter. Her life experience is certainly a great encouragement to others who are bereaved like her.

This book is a valuable account of how the writer sailed through and emerged from her hard times following the passing away of her husband. Her writing is full of emotions expressed in fine details and with precision. Her recollection is succinct, but to the point, deep and touching. She also appends the book with a self-help guide which provides specific, practical and objective suggestions for people in grief.

Population aging is becoming an increasingly prominent social issue. As more and more Christians are reaching the end of their occupational career or have already retired, they need to adapt to and cope with this major turn in life. Can the church help them turn this threat into opportunity? Also, many of the retirees are still in good shape, both physically and mentally. They can well start another page in their life. How does the church encourage them to contribute to God’s ministry with their skills and experiences?

This book targets at readers who are retirees or about to retire. It encourages them to enter into a closer relationship with God and, as they start a new phase in life, to share and pass on their grace of life with the missions and dreams they have received from God. The book comprises four chapters, namely “Me in Retrospect”, “New Wine and New Wineskin”, “A Blessed Life” and “Eternity and Passing On”. It is good for personal reading and even better for group study and sharing at fellowship meetings. It is aimed at helping readers to achieve the following goals:

• Stocktaking and reflecting on life so far, refreshing spiritually in God and starting the next phase in life;
• Experiencing the joy of walking with God, shaking off all the secular conventions and restraints and sharing the Gospel freely with others;
• Encouraging retirees to work hard to promote the kingdom of God while they may.

A wheelchair-bound lady who turned her weaknesses into strengths by the grace and blessings of God; what then precisely were the driving forces behind her perseverance?

• I must persevere in living;
• I must persevere in serving as a missionary;

With a strong will to serve God, the writer came over from Macau to start her evangelical life in Hong Kong. What appeared to be an impossible mission initially turned out to be a blessing to many. With God’s guidance and care, she experienced one miracle after another.

This book is about how, with the driving power of God, a life warrior gets over the numerous hurdles in her path to become the first wheelchair-bound missionary in Hong Kong to proclaim the kingdom of God.

Can see without eyes the spiritual needs of others and the value of eternity!
Can go out without feet to bless others and walk by the will of God!
To many, the writer’s life may be a complete tragedy! Because of delayed treatment, she lost her sight at an early age. Added to this were the repeated onsets of cancer in recent years which ended up with the amputation of both of her feet. Still, she rises to all these challenges with joy and faith, living her life to the fullest and kindling the lives of others with her sharing. She is able to do this because of her faith in God who turns curses into blessings, walks with her in the valley of death and wipes away her tears. By the grace of God, life to her is a stage on which she is dancing with God and acting out the many blessings in disguise she has experienced.

This book fully testifies how the grace of God is perfected in man’s weakness and how what seems impossible to man is perfectly possible in God. May readers of this book get to know the God from whom the writer draws her strength, place their faith and thanks in Him, walk with Him and live out their lives in abundance regardless of whether they are in good times or bad.

What has art to do with devotional? In this book, the writer takes us back a few thousand years to the time around the exodus of Israelites from Egypt through 40 Chinese paintings of Painter Chim Yuen Wong to experience with the Israelites the wonderful salvation, guidance and provision of God. The book comprises 40 paintings, each for reading and meditation in a daily devotional. Based on the scenes depicted in each painting and the awakening written remarks, we may draw inspiration from the past experiences of the Israelites and ponder how far they can fit into our current situations. By so doing, we may get strength, comfort and hope, and immerse ourselves in the endless grace of God.

Many Christians believe in Christ, but are not necessarily His disciples. Believers may rationally agree to the truths in the Bible and may sometimes feel the presence of God, disciples, on the other hand, are fully moved by such truths and the reality of God to the extent that they centre everything they do on Jesus in their lives.

This book lists the differences between believers and disciples and encourages us to do more to experience God. It also explains what is the key to the source of power that the church needs, namely the drive to groom believers to become disciples, thereby exerting far-reaching influence on the world. This is precisely the kind of zeal and enthusiasm that most churches have lost.

As the world in which we live is nearing its end, we often feel powerless to cope with the daily challenges we face. Followers of Jesus may overcome these challenges and triumph over their enemies like Superman with the supernatural power from above. Even then, there is still the problem that such power is often taken away from us by a kryptonite, with the result that time and again, we fail in our struggle to break free from our obstacles. This is not the way God wants us to live. He expects us to emerge more than victoriously from every hardship.

In this book, the writer shares his own story of how he experienced breakthroughs in his life. Through his testimonies, he introduces to you the life-changing truths in the Bible which can arm you with power and confidence to influence the world around you.
