Some Christians doubt that December 25 is the real birthday of Jesus Christ, but there exists no sufficient and credible evidence to prove otherwise. Rev. Dr. Tyson Chang, in his native Chinese, preaches that the four "theories" supporting Jesus' birthday is not December 25 are all either weak or wrong. Therefore, he urges, people should celebrate Jesus' birthday on December 25, traditionally dubbed as Christmas. Don't let Santa Claus or Frosty the Snowman steal the spotlight. Jesus is the hero of the day!

Jacob, the second son of Isaac and Rebekah, became the father of the twelve tribes of Israel. Despite the honor and status, he actually led a bitter life. He admitted this while talking with Pharaoh. Rev. Dr. Tyson Chang preached that Jacob's bitter life had three forms: hardships, agonies and loneliness. He failed because of trying to grasp worldly things, but he was successful after he grasped God. Pastor Chang, in his native Chinese, encouraged Christians and non-Christians alike to grasp God rather than the world and believe in God's promises.

Luke described how Jesus persuaded a woman by a well in Samaria that He was the Messiah and she testified for Him and invited her villagers to hear Jesus preach. Rev. Dr. Tyson Chang saw both Jesus and the unnamed woman as bridges, one leading us to eternity while the other, leading neighbors to Jesus. In his native Chinese, Pastor Tyson delivers an unforgettable sermon by challenging all Christians to be a third "bridge".

Life is full of happiness, bitterness, joys, pains...etc. When we are in agony, suffering from life's setbacks in health, career, relationships...the only solution is Jesus Christ. Rev. Dr. Tyson Chang, in his native Mandarin Chinese, shares his experience in dealing with life's most challenging lessons when he suffered migraine and almost killed himself to stop the pains.

Thanksgiving Day is a day reminding us to give thanks to God, and to those who help you, support you, and oppose you. The hero of this special day is not the Indians, nor turkeys, but Jesus Christ, whose teaching improved human moral and quality. Rev. Dr. Tyson Chang, in his native Mandarin Chinese, elaborated in his sermon.

In the Bible, Satan has at least 33 names, such as the evil one, devil, liar deceiver, ruler of this world, angel of light...etc. But let no one be deceived: his purpose of existence is to separate human beings from God. His final demise, however, is announced in the Book of Revelation. Rev. Dr. Tyson Chang, in his native Chinese, delivers this sermon.

Christians should not be satisfied that they have strong convictions, and they should also pursue evangelical results. "Believe in Jesus and spread his words and deeds," Rev. Dr. Tyson Chang emphasized in this sermon delivered in his native Mandarin Chinese. 基督徒光是信教還不夠，必須負起宣教的任務。宣教可以從家人做起，進而鄰居、同事、陌生人...，更可以提升到外派至其他地區長宣或短宣。章台生博士/牧師以其牧會經驗說明宣教的重要性以及關鍵點。 引用經文： 但聖靈降臨在你們身上，你們就必得著能力；並要在耶路撒冷，猶太全地，和撒瑪利亞，直到地極，作我的見證。』(徒1:8) 1, 定位： 族內：在本族佈道 外邦族人：一種文化障礙 外邦：二種或更多文化障礙 2, 成立團隊、擬定方案、編列預算、慎選人選 執行範例：撒瑪利亞婦人、約拿 1, 家門口：家人、鄰居、新移民… 2, 短宣：一個月至兩年 3, 長宣：至少兩年 評估：交談對象、決志者、宣教對象的生命改變、自我衝擊與變化…

李牧師說：基督徒是聖徒、在基督裡的人、有信心的人、我們是領受神的恩惠與平安的人。 Pastor Lee said that Christians are "saints, people of faith, in Christ and recipients of grace and peace".

More Americans are displeasing God by going crazy for Halloween. This pagan festival of 2021 is attracting two thirds of Americans to participate and pumping consumer spending to about $10 billion with individual spending of $102.74. All three figures set new records. This means the U.S. is further sliding down to the Lake of Fire. Rev. Dr. Tyson Chang, in his native Mandarin Chinese, preached this seldom heard sermon, urging Christians to avoid this anti-God event marking death and ghosts, freaks ad horrors. In addition, Pastor Chang called upon Christians to take up the full armor of God's (Ephesians, Chapter 6) to defeat all evils! 更多的美國人參與【萬鬼節】(俗稱萬聖節)的活動，使神不悅。今年有三分之二的美國人參與這個異教節日的活動，消費高達一百億美元，平均每人消費$102.74。這三項數據都創新紀錄，顯示美國進一步滑向火湖。 章台生博士/牧師以中文證道，以罕見的主題呼籲基督徒避免參與這個違背神旨意、慶祝死亡、鬼魂、怪胎和恐懼的節日。不僅要避免，更要穿戴以弗所書第六章記載的神所賜的全副軍裝，擊敗邪惡勢力！

世上有兩種人：一種眼盲心不盲，一種卻是「睜眼瞎子」。章台生牧師解釋了這兩種「盲人」與聖經的教導。 There are two kinds of "blind" people in this world: the visually impaired with a sharp eye in the heart, and the "eyes-opened blind". In his native Mandarin Chinese, Dr. Rev. Tyson Chang quoted the Bible to help us understand more about these two kinds of people. 約翰福音9章記載了這兩種人：耶穌醫治了前者，一位生來失明的人得以看見，並用心靈的眼看到了真神耶穌。耶穌也譴責了另一種人：視力正常卻看不見真神耶穌以及自己的罪的法利賽人。 你有遇見過我們這個世代的「睜眼瞎子」嗎？ 今天證道的另一個重點是：耶穌說，生來失明或殘疾的人，不是因為他們犯了罪，也不是因為他們的父母犯了罪，而是因為神要顯出他的作為。章牧師舉出了在台灣六龜基督教育幼院長大的楊恩典女士，她生來無雙臂，經過當年行政院長蔣經國的鼓勵，靠著雙腳成為口足畫家，激勵許多人。 約翰福音第九章給我們的啟示包括： 1, 趁白日作工：勿「等到…」才傳福音 2, 耶穌醫治：憐憫、神蹟、救贖、見證 3, 暴露世界之暗：畏懼權勢/睜眼瞎子 4, 法利賽人：身在罪中，定別人罪 願神幫助我們既不眼盲、也不心盲，趁著白日，趕緊做主的工，傳福音！

李秀全牧師 (Rev. Morley Lee)以多年經驗，分享基督徒在社交及人際關係方面應注意事項。李牧師台灣大學外文系畢業, 1977-1994 擔任美國波士頓郊區華人聖經教會主任牧師18年, 1995-2000 教會差派到海外宣教，及加入中華海外宣道協會，擔任總幹事及工場主任，在東南亞參與跨越文化宣教事工6年. 2001-2006 擔任美國校園福音團契宣教部主任；同時創立國際關懷協會推動普世宣教事工。 2006年至2011年擔任世界華人福音事工聯絡中心總幹事。

Jesus told us "Do not judge so that you will not be judged." (Matthew 7:1) We must not disobey His words. But we can criticize with a good intention. Judgment and criticism may seem alike, but they are very different and we should be mindful in this. Rev. Dr. Tyson Chang preached this topic in his native Mandarin Chinese. 耶穌交代我們：「你們不要論斷人，免得你們被論斷。』(馬太福音7:1) 這裡的論斷，意思是評斷、審斷，也就是不要以自己的價值觀去論斷別人的言行。但是我們可以依據聖經的標準去善意批判別人的錯誤。章台生博士/牧師在證道中勉勵我們多說造就人的話。

摩西的傳人約書亞帶領以色列人一路打進迦南美地，鏖戰至少十二場戰爭，屢戰皆勝，唯獨在艾城吃了敗仗。他為何戰敗？又如何自我調整，事後屢戰皆捷？我們可以學得甚麼樣的人生功課？章台生博士/牧師在證道中分析。Joshua, Moses' heir to lead the Israelites into the Promised Land, fought at least 12 battles to conquer Canaan, winning all of them except one. He started the journey with a handsome victory at Jericho, but lost the next one at Ai. He learned his lessons and achieved the final goal ultimately. Why did he lose at Ai? How he corrected himself to win the ensuing battles? What can we learn from his lessons? In his native Mandarin Chinese, Rev. Dr. Tyson Chang delivered a sermon to help us answer these questions.

馬太福音24章3-14節記載了耶穌向門徒說的「末世十現象」，值得我們警惕。章台生博士/牧師在證道視頻中分析，現世的紛亂，不是末日已近，其實末日還很遠，但我們必須嚴加提防，至死對神忠心。The 10 phenomena Jesus told his disciples as recorded in Matthew 24:3-14 alerts us that although the "End Day" of earth is still very far away from us now, we must be on guard against Satan and his plots and remain loyal to God while on earth. In his native Mandarin Chinese, Rev. Dr. Tyson Chang preached this and other teachings in this sermon. 馬太福音24:3-14 3 耶 穌 在 橄 欖 山 上 坐 著 ， 門 徒 暗 暗 的 來 說 ： 請 告 訴 我 們 ， 甚 麼 時 候 有 這 些 事 ？ 你 降 臨 和 世 界 的 末 了 有 甚 麼 豫 兆 呢 ？ 4 耶 穌 回 答 說 ： 你 們 要 謹 慎 ， 免 得 有 人 迷 惑 你 們 。 5 因 為 將 來 有 好 些 人 冒 我 的 名 來 ， 說 ： 我 是 基 督 ， 並 且 要 迷 惑 許 多 人 。 6 你 們 也 要 聽 見 打 仗 和 打 仗 的 風 聲 ， 總 不 要 驚 慌 ； 因 為 這 些 事 是 必 須 有 的 ， 只 是 末 期 還 沒 有 到 。 7 民 要 攻 打 民 ， 國 要 攻 打 國 ； 多 處 必 有 饑 荒 、 地 震 。 8 這 都 是 災 難 （ 災 難 ： 原 文 是 生 產 之 難 ） 的 起 頭 。 9 那 時 ， 人 要 把 你 們 陷 在 患 難 裡 ， 也 要 殺 害 你 們 ； 你 們 又 要 為 我 的 名 被 萬 民 恨 惡 。 10 那 時 ， 必 有 許 多 人 跌 倒 ， 也 要 彼 此 陷 害 ， 彼 此 恨 惡 ； 11 且 有 好 些 假 先 知 起 來 ， 迷 惑 多 人 。 12 只 因 不 法 的 事 增 多 ， 許 多 人 的 愛 心 才 漸 漸 冷 淡 了 。 13 惟 有 忍 耐 到 底 的 ， 必 然 得 救 。 14 這 天 國 的 福 音 要 傳 遍 天 下 ， 對 萬 民 作 見 證 ， 然 後 末 期 才 來 到 。

被遺忘的英雄迦勒，在八十五歲時仍然鬥志高昂，分得神所應允的西伯倫山地後，奮力擊敗當地巨人族，並傳承功業給女兒和第一代士師俄陀聶，成為神僕榜樣。章牧師詳細分析講解，揭開迦勒的英雄面紗！ Caleb, a forgotten hero eclipsed by his comrade Joshua, fought fiercely against the giant tribes on the mountains of Hebron where God promised him the land he was allocated. Caleb, 85, declared that he was as strong as 40 years ago. He is indeed a good example of God's servant. Pastor Tyson Chang analyzed Caleb's heroism in his native Mandarin Chinese.

Nowadays we see many "Christians" (pastors, ministers...) attempt to remake Jesus according to their design. They proclaim the "Prosperity Gospel", assuring followers that Jesus will make you rich and happy and there is no sin to repent and no hell to fear. They even teach that Jesus was a black man born on the Tabernacle Day, and follow Jesus to enjoy the worldly pleasures. Rev. Dr. Tyson Chang, in his native Mandarin Chinese, explored this nonsense and urged people to get to know Jesus better. 有些「成功神學」人士企圖改造耶穌，以「信耶穌，得財富」以及其他誤謬理論吸引人走向地獄。他們甚至竄改耶穌的生日、膚色、福音，不提認罪悔改、不教聖經真理...。章台生博士/牧師仔細分析這項陰謀，並且呼籲世人多多認識真的耶穌。

The common belief that we are too familiar with the stories of the Garden of Eden helps us ignore the important details in which God's unrevealed mystery hides. This sermon by Rev. Dr. Tyson Chang in his native Mandarin Chinese attempts to answer some interesting questions concerning God, Satan, the snake, Adam and Eve. 章台生博士/牧師在這篇證道中探討了以下的問題： 1,伊甸園在哪裡？ 2,園中有何物？ 3,神創造的伊甸園裡怎麼會有蛇？神為何不築牆防止蛇和撒但入園？ 4,神造萬物皆美好，各適其用，蛇為何不美好？蛇天生就邪惡嗎？蛇所適何用？ 5,蛇和撒但做了何事？有何後果？ 他也提出了這五點觀察： 1,明白：縱容並跟隨犯罪者，刑罰可能更重。 2,熟悉撒旦伎倆：說謊、挑撥、引誘、試探… 3,犯錯後，不要躲避神，而要親近神。 4,神造你我，非為慵懶享受，而是為辛勤工作。 5,取悅於人，代價甚大；取悅於神，身心安康。 章牧師強調： 以神賜軍裝抵擋撒但 用真理作帶子束腰，用公義當作護心鏡遮胸，又用和平的福音當作預備走路的鞋穿在腳上。此外，要拿信德當作盾牌，用來撲滅那惡者一切燒著的箭；要戴上救恩的頭盔，拿著聖靈的寶劍，就是上帝的道；要靠著聖靈，隨時多方禱告祈求。 (以弗所書6:14-18)

大衛王、祭司亞倫、撒母耳、以利都是失敗的父親，他們失敗的共同原因就是對兒子缺乏管教，正所謂「子不教，父之過」。願神幫助我們從他們的失敗中學習，做個稱職的父親！ King David, Priests Aaron, Samuel and Eli were all failures as fathers. Their common cause for failure is a lack of discipline rendered to their sons. May God help us learn from their lessons to be good parents.

Apostle Paul was full of pride as a young Pharisee, but Jesus helped him turn into an apostle of humility. Dr. Rev. Tyson Chang preached on this topic in mandarin Chinese. 使徒保羅原本高傲主耶穌卻使他謙卑，成為傳播福音的器皿。章台生博士/牧師以中文證道。

The Gospel of Matthew exclusively recorded Jesus' parable of wheat and tares. While either in the world or church we will encounter tares nd wheat, we ourselves might turn from wheat into tares, hence the title of this sermon delivered in Mandarin Chinese by Rev. Dr. Tyson Chang, senior pastor of (Los Angeles) Christ Chinese Baptist Church at La Verne, California. 馬太福音獨家記載了耶穌所說【麥子與稗子】的比喻，其中的田地除了比喻世界、教會，也比喻人生。我們一生努力做麥子，卻可能長成稗子。章台生牧師精彩講解【稗麥人生】。

批判種族理論 (critical race theory) 最近成為美國媒體關注的焦點之一，華人不可不知。美國已有超過二十個州採取行動，禁止該州學校教導此一理論。前任華視新聞主播/駐歐洲特派員章台生博士精簡分析了這個理論的源起、要素以及對美國的影響。他同意許多學者的看法：此一理論不但無法降低美國種族衝突，更造成社會仇視並動盪不安。The U.S. media has been focusing on critical race theory as more than 20 states have taken action to ban schools from teaching CRT. Dr. Tyson Chang, former news anchor/Europe correspondent of Taiwan's Chinese Television System, analyzed CRT in Mandarin Chinese and agreed with other commentators that CRT cannot soothe racial tensions, but can cause racial confrontation in the U.S.

King David wrote Psalm 51 to manifest his repentance over his sins, iniquity and transgressions. When we sin, we should learn from David to win back Father God's heart. Rev. Dr. Tyson Chang delivers a sermon on this topic in Mandarin Chinese. 大衛寫詩篇51篇，表達他對罪孽的懺悔。我們犯錯時也應學大衛的懺悔，以挽回神的心意。請分享章台生博士/牧師的主日證道。

King David's nephew, Joab, stayed loyal to his uncle until the last days when he joined Adonijah in his unsuccessful revolt. Joab murdered David's third son, Absalon, David's would-be commanders Abner and Amasa. At his death bed, David ordered Solomon to kill Joab which Solomon did. 大衛的外甥約押對大衛愚忠，卻由於心狠手辣、流無辜人的血，最後遭所羅門處決。

Jesus told Jairus and friends "Do not be afraid; only believe!" when he heard Jairus' 12-year-old daughter had died. Then He resurrected her. We must have full faith and believe in God before defeating fears created by the environment. In an Independence Day sermon, Rev. Dr. Tyson Chang encourages his friends and folks not to fear the more and more serious hate crimes against Asians and believe that Jesus can deliver them from harm.this 耶穌告訴管會堂的葉魯「不要怕，只要信」，並使她女兒復活。 章台生博士/牧師在美國國慶日的證道中，以這段經文鼓勵同胞不要畏懼於日趨嚴重的「仇恨亞裔犯罪事件」，要相信耶穌必救我們脫離兇惡！

Juneteenth became a federal holiday in 2021 to mark the end of Black slavery. Dr. Tyson Chang, in his native Mandarin Chinese, explained its origin and significances. 美國政府由2021年開始將六月十九日訂為聯邦假日，以紀念黑奴終結。章博士解釋了其來源及意義。
