| Introduction | I grew up in Thailand and later spent a signficant portion of my life in Hong Kong. I speak Cantonese, fluently enough to woo and marry Elena, who is HK Chinese, and we've been married now for 20 years. We have three kids - Jessica (17), Stephanie (14) and Jordan (12) - who are the joy of my life. I am on the pastoral team at Evangelical Community Church, in Melbourne, Australia, and I am president of the Online Bible College. |
