One Fellow Traveller, Sharing the Map

In early 2004 I was struggling with work in Singapore. One day I bumped into a long-lost friend, Don. When I knew him years before, he was a football bookie — but the name card he handed me that day said Managing Director. I had to know what happened.

To my surprise, he kept saying it was the Lord who brought him to where he was. I couldn't understand it. But I was curious enough to visit his church — and on 26 August 2004, at New Creation Church, I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior.

Weeks later I was going for job interviews. I walked out of one convinced I had missed it. Standing right there in the lobby, I talked to Jesus — I didn't even know yet that this was called praying. I told the Lord I wanted that job. And boldly, I asked for a salary higher than what I had put in my resume.

I got the job — with $500 more than I had asked for. Praise the Lord! That was the day I learned that Jesus is not just my Savior. He is my Provider.

I may not even be alive to write this without His protection. Once, driving my family to a T-junction on a green light, I was prompted to stop — no reason, no car behind me. A split second later a white Mercedes tore across the junction right through our path. If I had gone ahead, I or my eldest son, seated right behind me, could have been seriously hurt. Another time, a green arrow that should have appeared didn't — and an oncoming truck sped through the junction. Hallelujah!

Walking with the Lord for more than twenty years hasn't meant a life without challenges. It has meant never facing them alone.

Somewhere along the way I discovered something that changed how I handle money: the Bible speaks about money and possessions in over two thousand verses. More than faith. More than prayer. Money was never just math — it's a heart matter, and Scripture lays out a whole system for it: renewing your money mindset, breaking free from debt, saving diligently, giving generously, and multiplying what God puts in your hands.

That discovery became my book, What the Bible Really Says About Money, and this site. No hype, no guilt, no get-rich promises. Just one fellow traveller sharing the map.

Everything on this site flows from that one decision in 2004. If you'd like to invite Jesus into your life, you can pray this simple prayer, honestly, right where you are:

"Lord Jesus, thank You for loving me and dying on the cross for my sins. I receive You as my Lord and Savior. Thank You for forgiving me and giving me new life. Amen."

If you prayed that prayer, welcome to the family. Find a Bible-believing church near you — you weren't meant to walk this road alone.
