I have a confession to make.
When I was a kid, I didn’t like taking a bath.
It was my unique solution to the water shortage of the world. I felt that taking a bath was totally unnecessary—a vanity that modern people invented.

Remember that my mother is 85 years old—and anything about her life is Philippine History.
When I was a little boy, I asked her, “Mom, did you see Jose Rizal?”

In order to flow in abundance, you need to wish God’s wishes.
Let me begin by talking about Science.
I Flunked Science
When I was in school, I was never a fan of Science or Math.

To make it, Daddy Eagle picks up sturdy twigs and sharp thorns to build this special home. But to make the nest comfortable, he’ll cover the twigs and thorns with soft grass.

May I disturb you?
Last Sunday, I disturbed the 6000+ people attending the Kerygma Conference.
Because that morning, God disturbed me too.
He woke me up and told me to totally change my talk. Just like that. I had barely a few minutes to prepare, so I didn’t even know everything I was going to say.
On stage, I opened […]

This morning, Tita Neneng died.
My dearest friend was 83 years old.
Who was she? She was God’s love to me. Really.
