Hi God's children,

I’m Boby from Indonesia. Here in my blog, I want to share with you about God’s heart to His people through Chinese calligraphy and painting. It has been my vision years ago since I decided to give my life for His glory alone.

My simple faith story

My story began when I was 12 years old, my mom told me that my grandfather is a Master Chinese Caligraphy he also mastered in Chinese writing and speaking. When she told me the story about my grandfather, I was thinking ‘‘maybe one day I become like my grandfather, because it cool.“  Since that day onwards, I was curious to learn about Chinese calligraphy (I was in junior high school at the time); even after my grandfather passed away, I believed that his seed and anointing were flowing in me. I’ve learned about Chinese calligraphy for more than 8 years until now, without no mentors teaching me about this.

I remember how God led me to choose the university I had to go. One day, I was walking and looking at the university’s brochure in Bandung. I saw a Chinese painting on the brochure of the 'Design Communication Visual' program. When I saw it, my heart leapt up with joy! There’s a voice in my heart that said "this is the one, the best university that God had for me." I went to register myself right away. I follow where God leads me because I know God does speak through my heart.  

Boby Chen - Chinese Calligraphy and Painting - Story

I joined CREA (a branding & marketing consulting company) in December 2010 and applied as a graphic designer. After 3 years of working, I was promoted to become an Art Director.  I thought it was the highest level I could achieve in the company, but it turned out that My God had a plan that is greater than mine. And the rest is history.

The founder of the company, also my spiritual father, papa Jeffri, said that my calligraphy was a special seed from God. He was the one who released me to pursue my dream of being a Chinese Calligraphy artist. Day to day, I've been learning to experience God’s voice through my heart. I came here as a fresh graduate & graphic designer. It has never crossed in my mind that God would make me download His revelations, words & pictures through Chinese(ART) calligraphy, in order to bless others in hope of hearing the voice of God. I just simply follow what my heart said every time I need to decide something.

I believe HE has the best plan for each of us, His children. When we listen to Him & follow our heart, we will surely arrive at our favorite harbor, the Destiny that God has prepared for us.  Starts 2017 until now, there's always a perfection coming to my life.

Grateful Moment

Here are some grateful moments from people who are truly blessed with my prophetic arts. They feel His love and also His confirmation of their needs.

Boby Chen - Chinese Calligraphy and Painting - Testimonial Stefanus

Stefanus Irwanto - Melbourne

I’m soo grateful to receive this painting by Boby of the JDCG team. I live in Melbourne, Australia, and was in Indonesia in Jan 2020 to visit my family and for a short mission trip in East Java.

The painting is a big house on solid rock and it is titled “Safe Place”. I just happened to be on a similar type of house on a mountain in East Java the day before I received this painting. I was contemplating on a number of important decisions for various situations. The painting gave me the confidence that God knows my thoughts and the assurance that the heavenly Father is my Safe Place with every step. This painting is now placed in the main hallway at my place and it is definitely a great reminder of the Lord’s faithfulness.

Thank you, Boby and the JDCG team!
