    Amen! Great timing on this article! My wife and I are about to arrive to Tokyo and start language school as we prepare to be church planters. Im bookmarking this article for sure. Thanks for the reminder and encouragement!

  2. Yes, this would have been helpful to have read while I was in language school. But even now, 5 years on, it is still relevant as I’m not done learning Japanese!
    Thank you, Simon.
