Soon I'll be living in one of the most amazing nations on earth, enjoying the delights of the Chinese language, Chinese food, Chinese ingenuity, and Chinese society. I'm moving to Shanghai, China. I'll be there for one to two years as I make a dramatic and exciting career change that will later bring me back to the United States. My wife will be joining me there and will be involved with a humanitarian foundation helping children and migrant workers while I work on intellectual property strategy and innovation for a large company hungry to improve, grow, and excel.

Details and photos to follow.

The Chinese firewall may make it difficult for me to post as often as I would like. I'll also be careful to respect Chinese law regarding proselyting. I'll participate in a branch for expatriates that the government allows to meet. While organized religion will have limitations, opportunities to serve in other ways are wide open, for human needs are abundant in spite of the incredible prosperity of that beautiful nation. Wish me luck.
