Proclaiming the Risen Son in the Land of the Rising Sun: Boots on the Ground in Osaka!
http://brentkooi.blogspot.com/2014/09/boots-on-ground-in-osaka.html
Saturday, September 13, 2014. Boots on the Ground in Osaka! But until then, this is an inexpensive place to live. I ventured out on my second day to find Mustard Seed Church, a three year old bilingual. Congregation. It was so good to worship in Japan, and to sing praises in Japanese, even if. It was just singing sounds that are mostly unintelligible to me right now! I will be involved. At Mustard Seed as much as possible until the GIC team is able to launch a church plant in a year or two. Thank you to ...

But some helpful reflection on something we all do every day, should help let us down a little easier…. We have no clue. Nada. None. Zip. Zilch. Hours pass each night as we lie there as passive passengers on this planet as it hurtles around the sun. There is no control while sleep happens.

Proclaiming the Risen Son in the Land of the Rising Sun: Reflecting on my Travel in Western Japan
http://brentkooi.blogspot.com/2011/08/reflecting-on-my-travel-in-western.html
Wednesday, August 24, 2011. Reflecting on my Travel in Western Japan. Why Kyoto and Hiroshima? Although all my English students warned me that Kyoto and Hiroshima are just too hot to visit in the summer, I chose to visit these cities because I love history - I was a history major in college. Both cities have rich, long histories; perhaps Hiroshima's earlier history is now overshadowed by the atomic bomb, but this is arguably the most significant moment in their history. Final Comment on the A-Bomb. More ...

Proclaiming the Risen Son in the Land of the Rising Sun: Languishing in Language
http://brentkooi.blogspot.com/2015/01/languishing-in-language.html
Thursday, January 29, 2015. It's happening. I'm in full-time language school, and it is what I expected - difficult. Muzukashidesu! Classes started January 13, and I am in the "J1" class, the lowest level. I assumed the first couple weeks would be really easy for me, since I have lived in Japan for nearly three years total, and took Japanese classes in Chiba - even if I didn't really study very much there. But class was actually difficult the very first day! However, I was reminded recently that it doesn...

Proclaiming the Risen Son in the Land of the Rising Sun: Japan Relief Work - Report from Dan Iverson
http://brentkooi.blogspot.com/2011/03/japan-relief-work-report-from-dan.html
Tuesday, March 15, 2011. Japan Relief Work - Report from Dan Iverson. Dear Family and friends,. People were so desperate for water that when we ran out, they wanted the not-so-clean spill-over can water. It was very sad to run-out with people still coming with plastic bags and trash cans and anything they could bring to get water. I could not help but think:. May the Japanese people come to thirst like this spiritually, and be this desperate seeking Living Water (Isa. 55:1-2; John 4). Youve probably hear...
