People We Like: Lars Dunberg, Global Action

Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010

Lars Dunberg is one of those people you wished you met long before you actually did. I met him in Colorado the other year, and was instantly impressed, not only by Lars himself, but also by what he has accomplished, and continues to accomplish. In his book “Risktaker for God” (which comes highly recommended) you can read about Lars’ life-long quest to serve, and the amazing things he has accomplished. A true entrepreneurial spirit in a field that knows too few. So we asked him a few questions who he is, and what he does.

The new kid on the block

Monday, February 1st, 2010

Let me introduce myself. I’m Hui Hui, also known as Chris, the spanking new marketing and communications manager for Voxbiblia.com. It’s a privilege and joy to be working here at Voxbiblia, where our common goal is to make the Bible more easily accessible to the masses.

Just in case you’re wondering, this blog post came about when we decided to start a blogterview series, and realised, “Horror of horrors! She hasn’t been introduced!”

Exaggerations, of course.

But yes, this explains why this post has been backdated to the time when I started at Voxbiblia. If you have been a loyal fan of our blog, we truly apologize for sneaking in a post.

Just a few snippets about me – I’m a “made in Singapore product”, which basically means that I was born in Singapore, raised on a huge variety of food from all cultures and am adept with both English and Singlish*.

*Singlish=Singaporean English, for those who are wondering :P

Oh yes, I can speak some Mandarin as well, but (unfortunately) it probably sounds more English than Mandarin.

So, after 15 hours on Qatar Airways, I’ve finally settled myself into a new home, here in Stockholm. I am blessed with the opportunity to work in Sweden itself during this one year period!

I’m in an exciting company with fantastic colleagues, working in a beautiful office while enjoying my Swedish meatballs. And I’m probably the luckiest girl in the world right now :)
