The story of the founder Wilma Lin
Wilma Lin, a little girl who grew up in a drug-addicted family. She converted to Christianity when she was in junior high and attended church for two years. Her spiritual life never grew, put God asid, and led a life of self-indulgence. She had to face the family's drug issues and verbal abuse everyday. She was totally alone.
God was always there and waited for the right moment. After 15 years of the lonely battle, she opened the Bible again. God's radiance shone into her darkside. The bitter tears began to wash away her darkest sins. Jesus Christ's love and sacrifice for humanity rained down and began to rebuild Wilma's once-tormented life. Jesus Christ rescued her from the darkness of death by His own holy words, and He used the blood of His crucifixion to wash and blot out all her transgressions, so that she could truly regain the freedom of life.
She realized that only a life renewed by God will have the true joy and peace. For sure no one can take it away. From then on, she experienced a colorful life in Christ.
Jesus said to the crowd: "I am the light of the world. Those who follow me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."

We can know God's wonders from nature, and God is the source of artistic color. All living things, tangible and intangible, are unique and unique in the hands of God.

Introduction to Art Evangelism:
Many people say, "I'm not artistic..." Is this true? Let me share a testimony. I grew up in a poor family, and luxury goods such as art are absolutely out of reach for me. But ever since I got to know the Lord who created all things, I often have a feeling of admiration for the source of life and the wonders of nature. People live until they are more than 40 years old before they realize what they said, and they are full of artistic cells early in their bones. It is to illustrate the real existence of God through the paintings created by mixing colors.
Creation inspiration comes from the understanding of the Lord who created all things—God. He is the source of artistic color. All living things, tangible and intangible, are unique and unique in the hands of God. Everyone is a perfect work of art in what he designed. God intends to place people in the world he created. In order to enjoy his presence, they are more gifted with the instinct to create art and can create different works of art to glorify him. God wants people to live with art and rich life, but unfortunately, people are separated from the holy God forever because of sin, but because of God's unchanging love and justice, He has prepared salvation. How to state it alone? It can start with art. Believers only need to paint the true meaning of love through the five patterns and five kinds of love in the picture with different colors. "Love" established their salvation and greatly enhanced their evangelism and skills. Use patterns and colors to draw unbelievers into the Gospel content in a playful way.
