  • Faithful Roots, Flourishing Generations - Daniel & Irene Chui (Pt. 2)
    May 31 2025

    Daniel shares how a childhood love of investing became a calling in finance—and how his workplace is a space for quiet, faithful witness. Irene reflects on the process of supporting Daniel’s call to church eldership and how they discern ministry decisions together as a team. They also open up about the daily realities of parenting and the challenge of balancing work, church, and family. Through it all, they remind us that we don’t need to escape the mundane to encounter God—He is at work in the ordinary, shaping us and using us right where we are.
