Dr. Fou-Sen Chang
This morning my boss shared a story with after a mini-sales meeting. He told me how he became a Christian.
Fou-Sen: I became a Christian my 1st year in college. Before that I was one of the biggest anti-christians. I believed in science. I hated all forms of religion. I hated that most of the Chinese around me were so superstitious with Buddhism, and Taoism, and God knows what.... But I felt like I was one of the elites that were going to get China and Taiwan Out of poverty by science. But along came with the western thought, the western superstition..... Christianity. So for about 2 1/2 years I argued with Christians all the time. I thought that some of my friends were influnced by the western science and their relilgion was part of it. To battle the Christians in debates, I read the bible 10 times.... Cover to cover looking for mistakes and flaws.
Jung: You couldn't find any?
Fou-Sen: No I found some... Like when Jacob went to Egypt and...(some thing about number 70 and 72) (I had no idea what he was talking about) . Some insignificant flaws... So I thought to myself, I got'em...
Jung: Hahahaha
Fou-Sen: But one day I was arguing and one of my friends said to me... "since we will not get anywhere by arguing, How about we do this. We will do a role reversal. I will read the bible as a non-believer, and you(Fou-Sen) read the bible as a beliver and see what kind of a argument that we can have". I agreed... As I was reading it again with an open mind I saw it in a different light. When I came to Romans Chapter 7.... It was the part about being wretched and not baing able to do what I want to do and doing thing I don't want to do, and how only in Christ we can do thing that are righteous, I was crying. I confessed my sins and here I am forty some years later."
As I was listening to my boss this morning in his Chinese accent, I was extremely blessed and thankful. I was so thankful that my boss is a brother in Christ. It was awesome. Don't you wish you had a boss like mine? Sometimes I am so blind to all the greatness that surround me.
