Get to Know Sharon Huang

Ministry Description

In Taiwan, we only have 4% Christian. We can choose any gods and many gods, but not Jesus. The culture of honoring our parents and ancestors is often the reason that stop people from changing their beliefs to Jesus.

Taiwanese people love building relationships with others. They welcome people with genuine warmth and heartfelt hospitality. Among these lovely people, about 96% do not know or recognize Jesus as their Savior. As a result, countless souls will be separated from the heavenly Father. For Taiwanese Christians who come to know Jesus later in life, this becomes a painful reality, which is losing their family members and friends for eternity.

At Word of Life Taiwan, we have designed a program called SYME. We teach Taiwanese students English through the Bible. While they improve their English skills, we also plant the seeds of the Gospel in their hearts. SYME is a two-month program where missionaries live with students, and many Taiwanese students become curious about our God because of the love and dedication of these missionaries. The SYME program satisfies Taiwanese students' English needs of education, while also introducing non-Christians to Jesus and helping Christians grow in their relationship with God.

In Asia, there are many places filled with spiritual darkness. There are so many people who don't know God, or their cultural background prevents them from making a decision, just as in my situation. I invite you to learn more about what He is doing in Asia and to be a part of His work through prayer, financial support, sharing, and caring!

About Sharon

I grew up in a family which has two religions. There have been many Christians on my mother’s side for many generations. When I was young, I went to church with my mom. My dad has a strong faith in Taoism. Out of respect for his beliefs, I was worried that he would be sad because no one will be able to worship him after he dies. So I went to temples with my dad to worship his God and our ancestors. I struggled to decide what to believe for many years.

My grandparents were Christians. When I was 21, my grandmother passed away from cancer. I had many questions about life after death because I really wanted to know where my grandma is right now. As a Christian, I know they will go to heaven once they die. But what about people of other religions, like Taoists? They believe in reincarnation. Or do people simply cease to exist? I felt that there had to be one ultimate truth, not just different beliefs based on personal faith. I was so confused and eager to find the answers. After I talked to the elders in my church, I challenged them with many questions. Through these conversations, I came to understand that reincarnation is not real. There is only one life, and the only way to receive eternal life is through Jesus Christ. I asked God to be my Savior after grandma passed away. From that moment on, I never worshiped any other god. I find peace and joy in our powerful God.

Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest. Luke 10:2
