"I talk about things that matter, with people who care." Jim Rohn Unlike seminars and workshops where you sit in an audience, listen to a presentation, take some notes, or participate in a Q&A session, we invite you to participate in a conversation. Our hope is not to disseminate information, but to spark transformation.   Our events are centered on a topic and include a short presentation from one or more hosts, but the goal is just as much to hear your thoughts, questions, and experience …

We wanted a chance to explore the difficulty of faith in our culture. Many in our community are interested in living a "Christian" way of life but also value the opportunity to explore our questions and doubts. We tend to think that for most New Yorkers, (non)religion is a fluid reality.  There is often doubt in the midst of our faith, and faith in the midst of ou …

As many of you know, there are several different Chinese meetup groups in New York. At most of these meetups, speakers of all levels are welcome. This means that quite a large percentage of the conversation tends to be in English. To learn and improve, it's necessary to immerse oneself and not to feel as if you can just switch to English anytime you want. I have started this meetup to create a place where intermediate, advanced, or native speakers can go and speak entirely in Chinese. Sure, you …
