  Name: ( ZHANG ) Pen name: Kaiming Zhang
  Born in 1978 in an ordinary family in Luoyang, Henan, Central Plains, the third generation of Christians, strictly speaking, my mother was the first person in the family to accept the salvation of Jesus Christ. God's grace led my grandparents to Christ through my mother's testimony. When I was young, I accompanied my mother to attend Sunday meetings every weekend because of obedience or curiosity. Although the round-trip distance to attend the meetings was nearly 7 miles, I almost never missed Sundays. I clearly remember that there was no children's Sunday school at that time. During the meetings, adults and children were very lively together. After a long time, they would sing and pray.

• My faith is my mother's. Simply put, Jesus Christ belongs to my mother and the pastor, and it seems to have nothing to do with me. Although I have learned a lot of songs, I can pray for myself and others, and I actively participate in meetings. I clearly remember that the pastor gave many lessons at a meeting during the summer vacation. I still remember that the pastor used many examples to prove the existence of God, talked about God's creation and the creation of man, the fall of man and God's judgment, and God gave Jesus Christ to complete salvation and other information. This gathering made me realize that I am a sinner who needs the salvation of Jesus Christ, especially when I heard the pastor talk about the prodigal son. At that time, I knelt down with tears in my eyes and confessed that I was a sinner who needed the salvation of Jesus Christ and accepted Jesus Christ as my personal savior. After that, I deeply experienced that the faith in Jesus Christ was not only what my mother told me, but also not only what the pastor preached. It was my own faith and my own savior.

• When I was young, I gave up my studies based on my enthusiasm for faith and the support of the church, my mother and my family. In 1992, I studied for theological training in the church (respectively: short-term Christian life course, complete Bible course, systematic theology course, practical theology and other series of theological courses). After graduation, I served as a preacher in the Central Plains and other regions. In 1997, when Hong Kong returned to China, I was sent by the church to Fujian to plant churches as a preacher and youth Bible training teacher. During the service in the Fujian church until 2002, I was blessed and merciful by God and met my current wife. In 2003, he moved to Shanghai and started his workplace ministry. During his workplace ministry, he studied in Hong Kong theology courses and obtained a master's degree in theology and a master's degree in divinity. In 2005, he went to the Philippines to receive the ordination ceremony arranged by the church pastor. He was ordained as a pastor by representatives of Asian churches, American and Canadian church pastors. In the same year, he served as the head of the house church in mainland China and a lecturer at the Hong Kong Correspondence Theological Seminary. In 2012, he was greatly restricted by the domestic government because of his workplace ministry and church pulpit ministry. In the same year, he was invited to the United States and traveled back and forth between China and the United States to participate in missionary ministry from 2015 to 2016. In 2016, he moved to Los Angeles, USA with his family. Since then, he has spent more time with his family and run a cross-border e-commerce platform. He hopes that future missionaries can become self-supporting and self-propagating in cross-border e-commerce. He is currently the assistant pastor of the Chinese Baptist Church in the residential community, leading his family to attend Sunday gatherings, and his family is involved in church service. Looking forward to learning more and following the footsteps of the Lord, and running the heavenly road hand in hand with brothers and sisters……………………………….
