這幾年，筆者一直在教會群體裏聽到一個詞——「接地氣」，強調基督信仰和神的子民不能彷彿空中樓閣，總是談發生在地球時空以外的事。沒錯。儘管神學有時候聽起來、討論起來很玄奥難明，但筆者一直深信且經歷到其對生活的貼切性，且努力嘗試拉近神學與生活在一般人理解中的距離。要做到這一點，就必須努力將真理落實，以致我們可以經歷，並且要不住觀察和反思周遭的現象。神不單藉着聖經向我們說話，也藉着我們周遭的人、事、物，以及內住在我們裏面的聖靈持續向我們說話。

In the past few years, a phrase is being used in church community, that is: "down to earth", emphasizing that Christians, as the people.of God, cannot be "like castles in the sky", always talking about things out of time and space. That's right. Although theology sometimes sounds mysterious and difficult to discuss, personally, I have always believed in and experienced its impact on life, and thus am trying hard to narrow this imaginary distance between theology and life in the understanding of ordinary people. To do this, we must work hard to implement these truths of the Bible, so that we can experience them, as well as to constantly observe and reflect on the phenomena around us. God not only speaks through the Bible, but also through people and things that we encounter and through the Holy Spirit who lives in us.
