I am excited to have come up with another edited book project. I have long thought about this kind of book. I will seek formidable, potential scholars for this one. I do what I can and want to do, no matter how long it takes. We'll see to it then.

My mind is blown, erupting like a volcano. One idea trails another, and every proposal evokes the next; everything happening in my mind is chemically reacting. This morning, in that space before waking, my mind was at work for two hours. Out of that, I developed this book idea: Rethinking Jesus.
This fact corroborates my current period of high productivity and scholarship. I received an invitation for the volume yesterday, and within one day, I developed a chapter title and a 200-word abstract. Itβs exciting progress. I will let you know more about this as the project develops further.
I revised my essay titled "Justice Amidst Tragedy: Jesusβs Parables in Dialogue with Itaewon and Sewol." Demonstrates the contemporary resonance and profound challenges of justice by bridging parables with modern crises.

We've received very positive initial feedback from a potential publisher. This is incredibly encouraging! Our quest to understand Paul is far from over, and I'm confident this book will be a vital, long-lasting contribution to critical discussions.
Thrilled to announce significant progress on the book proposal for "Rethinking Paul: Critical Conversations for Our World!" I'm editing this volume with invited, respected colleagues, and the introduction chapter (which I've just refined!) is now ready. The book cover is only imaginary.
I need a bit of rest now until my mind clears. Then, I will explore other chapters, including some important yet challenging biblical texts, such as the Book of Ruth, "hebel" in Ecclesiastes, Matthew 15:21-28, John 14:6, and Romans 3:21-26.
I am glad that I drafted a sample chapter for my new book project, titled The Fourth Horizon: The Mental World as a Critical Lens for Hermeneutics and Homiletics. The sample chapter title is "Genesis 19: The Trauma of Sodom and the Psychology of Violence."
Authoring a monumental book, The Activated Mindβa milestone synthesis bridging biblical studies, neuroscience, cognitive science, existential philosophy, and neuropsychology.

I asked how my article, "Lex Talionis in Exod 21:22-25: Its Origin and Context," in the Journal of Hebrew Scriptures, is accepted and used in the field.

Poem: "Fusion, Not Fission"
This poem reflects deeper truths of spirituality, moral ethics, political theology, and my love for meditation. It also reflects the teachings of the Dao De Jing.

Encountering a student's testimonial always feels like discovering a fresh oasis β a brief, welcome moment of rest. Take a look at what they shared; it's this small yet tangible reward that fuels my passion for teaching.
