Abstract
Chapel opens with a worship song that emphasizes themes of life, love, light, hope, and restoration, declaring the greatness of the Lord and expressing praise through the metaphor of breath in our lungs. This is followed by a reading from Acts 22, where the apostle Paul recounts his transformation from a zealous persecutor of Christians to a key witness for Christ after encountering a blinding light on the road to Damascus. Paul describes his background as a knowledgeable Jew educated under a prominent rabbi, his initial fervor against Christians, and how he was chosen by God to spread the Gospel to non-Jews. The message touches on a personal journey of faith shared by Dr. Ted Song, illustrating his struggles with identity and purpose during his academic and spiritual life, culminating in a deeper commitment to serving God and helping others, paralleling Paul’s own transformative experience.
