Amidst the turmoil of the world and the harshness of life, where can we find peace? To whom should we turn?


Rev. Christian Tirtha is a staff chaplain at Heathdale Christian College in Melbourne. Rev. Tirtha believes that humans throughout the ages have actually experienced or faced the same problems, but in different forms.

Our lives are like eating fairy floss or candy; although it tastes sweet, once consumed, it's nothing more than a tasteless, nutritional mess.

If so, are we all simply chasing something better, more abundant, more productive, and so on? Rev. Tirtha said that because we're so focused on achieving these desires, we forget to ask ourselves what the meaning of it all is.

In an interview with SBS Indonesian, Pastor Christian Tirtha addressed this.
