3. The Meaning of Marriage (for Men)
Many are interested in marriage but few understand the true meaning of it. Recently, I studied Tim Keller’s book on this topic with a young couple who were considering marriage. After the study they got engaged to each other, understanding the meaning of marriage. This session is not a Bible study. It is a topical discussion about biblical teachings on marriage. This session will be very helpful to those who are praying and preparing for their marriage, and to those who have questions about marriage. We will think and discuss about the secret, power, essence, mission of marriage, and the love & respect principle, and have plenty of time for Q&A.
Session : Dates has been changed. --> September 12 and 19 (It is recommended that you register for both sessions as they are a series.) – Time TBD

What does it mean to be a disciple of Jesus, especially in the context of UBF ministry? Is every Christian called to be a disciple? What is God’s hope and vision for me as Jesus’ disciple? How should I understand life and mission as Jesus’ disciple? In this series of sessions, we will think and discuss about ‘Calling and Commitment’, ‘Growing in a Christ-centered life’, and ‘Make disciples of all nations’. Anyone interested is welcome.

7. TCK (Third Culture Kids): Identity and Navigating Inner and Outer Worlds
Growing up between worlds in the context of ministry, young people often ask, "Who am I? Where do I belong? What's the purpose of my life?" By looking at important aspects of MKs and TCKs, we will create a space where they can be known by God and others, as we understand one another, together with some fun and fellowship.
We will explore the topics on “Foundation of Identity, Feeling and emotion, Fellowship and Relationship.”
These sessions will prepare MK/ TCKs for life ahead and equip them to thrive in their strengths and manage challenges.
There are three main sessions with various topics simultaneously: identity, sadness, fear, emotion, conflict resolution, and a sense of belonging.
Session : August 1: Identity, August 8: Feeling and Emotion: sadness, fear, a sense of belonging August 15: Fun fellowship and Conflict resolution

8. How to Study the Bible (English)
Some people are scared off by the term “Systematic Theology.” But what it really means is “How to Study the Bible?” in a way that one begins to see and understand God’s plan for creation, humanity, sin, salvation, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, angels, church, and end times. Through this session, you will be blessed to understand the revealed counsel of God in the Scripture. You will gain a brief overview of theology in general and systematic theology in particular. Romans 11:33 says, “Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable his judgments, and his paths beyond tracing out!” This session will stimulate participants to search God’s purpose for the meaning of our existence in the world we live in and find direction for our future.
Session : August 8 and August 15 (Please sign up for one or both session(s)) – Time TBD. The first session will focus on how to interpret the Bible and God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. The second session will devote to humanity, sin, salvation, angels and demons, church and end times. The session will be interactive with Q and A and can be expanded more sessions depending on the response of the participants.

11. Study of Ephesians – Being a Christian in the Real World
Through the study of Ephesians, we will be raising questions and seeking answers about how to live as a Christian in this world, e.g. on campus or in the workplace. The bible is relevant only if it is lived out in practice by those who believe in Jesus. As we study Ephesians, I hope that we will find strength in the bible to live out our faith in a real way in the real world.

(the purpose and meaning in life) What will happen when I die? The focus will be on the purpose in life.

14. Dating/Marriage Topical Bible Study (for Women)
Birth, marriage, death are the three most important events in life. But marriage is the only event of the three where one has to decide. This marriage decision reflects one’s value system. In this bible study, we will attempt to understand the biblical overview on Godly dating and marriage based on Genesis chapter 2. Then we will have definition of marriage by faith (MBF). After that, we will have honest discussions about the questions and challenges young people face today when it comes to dating and marriage. By the end of the workshop, we hope that students will have a better understanding of what the bible says about dating and marriage, and feel encouraged through discussions with their peers who are thinking about similar questions.

17. Evidence of Biblical Creation New
It is a misconception to think that the creation-evolution controversy is a battle between “science” and “religion.” Christians are often caught up in evolutionism because they think that evolutionism is proven, without realizing that such a worldview is incoherent and inconsistent with Scripture, thus contrary to what they believe. It should also be noted that most scientists believe the world is old (the evolution is true) simply because they believe that most other scientists believe it! The idea was just “in the air” ever since their youth, as it was for me, and most of them believed it because it had never occurred to them to question it. In this lecture, I will provide critical issues to consider and provide a critique of theistic evolutionism. I will also present critical evidence supporting biblical creation.

Thank you very much for sharing your Bible-based wisdom and advice with us all! I learned a lot about what it means to be a woman of faith who waits on God's timing and goodness for my marriage
Thank you Msn. Esther, for the clear and biblical bible study. I really got a lot out of it and it cleared up a lot of misunderstandings. It also gave me assurance and hope.
As I was telling my sister, I am surprised that I never deeply studied this before. After your session, I really think that knowing this biblical truth earlier would’ve saved me a lot of confusion and regrettable past mistakes. I am thankful to learn this now and I appreciate your time and effort! Praise Jesus :)
One thing that I think the most meaningful to me was the question, "How did man co-work with God?"
The answer was, Adam was busy co-working with God, naming all the creatures. It gave me an answer when I know I should get married. A husband and wife both should have a clear life purpose and be working hard for the mission. It gave me a more clear idea of the timing and attitude for a marriage.
Personally I liked the way how you gave your stories and examples. To me, it was good even though we didn't have discussion time. Thank you so much!

20. How To Study the Bible (Systematic Theology)
This sessions will provide how to study the Bible through the systematic theology. In August sessions we covered the doctrine of the word of God and the doctrine of God and the doctrine of the Trinity and the doctrine of Anthropology and the doctrine of sin. This November session will cover the doctrine of Christ (Christology), the doctrine of salvation (Soteriology), the doctrine of the Holy Spirit (Pneumatology) the doctrine of the future (Eschatology).
People have misconception that theology is boring and dry. They think that it belongs to seminarians and theologians. But it is the story of the Bible and ordinary people like you. It belongs to all lay people like shepherds and shepherdesses and missionaries and students.
This is a plain theology talk series which will stimulate your Bible study and change your life and give you the right understanding of the Scriptures and restore your characters to be like Christ and assist you to make the right decision for your future direction. Come and enjoy the Bible study and have spiritual fellowship with your peers.
Session : Friday, October 23 at 8:00pm EST and Saturday, October 24 at 10:00am EST; Friday, October 30 at 8:00pm EST and Saturday, October 31 at 10:00am EST.

21. #Missions: Unreached peoples
“Declare his marvelous works among all the peoples!” (Psalm 96:3). Reaching the 3.2 billion unreached people with the gospel of Christ.
Are missionaries even necessary anymore? Aren’t there plenty of people around me who don’t know Christ? Shouldn’t I just focus on reaching them? All of these questions and more will be answered in this session on unreached peoples and places. By the end of the session it is my prayer that attendees will be able to define what an unreached people group is, be able to distinguish between unreached people and lost people, be able to point out on a map where the unreached are predominately, and be able to justify from the Bible why Christians should care about the unreached peoples and places of the world.
Session : October 17th. Time TBD. Open to more sessions if there happens to be a lot more to say, and if there is a demand for it. 2 hour session.
