连训

By -
今天在教会里听到了一些道理，深深地感触了我的心。Jasmine 在讲道时说了些话。她拿了圣经彌迦书第三章第一到第十二节，来说明如果我们对上帝的话语做出了妥协，那么我们将无法得到上帝的揭示。她叫教会里的精神领袖如果我们的校园部要成长的话，我们绝对不可以对上帝的话语与指示做出妥协。我深深能体会到这一点的重要性，因为国大部的成长正是我心中最牵挂的一件事。看着国大的弟兄姐妹们，我真的希望上帝能给我们带来更高一辰的成长。要不然。。。可能以后真的会没有国大部。。。 而成长一定要有人来带动，而这些人就是渴望看到国大部成长而不及一切地想为此部寻求更多的突破，不对上帝的话语做出妥协的弟兄姐妹。我想，我自己想，我渴望着有一天可以看到国大一百的成立，但是如果我们没有足够的精神领袖，那么就算是有一百个人，那么谁来照顾与看顾这些人的精神成长？

今天，打保龄球突破了自己，打出了182分，赞！！ 但是我能像这样继续着在自己的精神成长取得突破吗？对于此事，我也只能交托给上帝了。

阿门。

Parable of the 'Good Samaritan'

By -
Once there was this man traveling from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among thorns, and the thorns spring up and choked him. And as he went on, he didn’t have money, and he met the Queen of Sheba, and she gave him 1,000 talents of gold and 100 changes of raiment. And he got into a chariot and drove furiously, and when he was driving under a big juniper tree, his hair caught on a limb of that tree, and he hung there many days, and the ravens brought him food to eat and water to drink, and he ate 5,000 loaves of bread and two fishes. One night when he was hanging there asleep, his wife Delilah came along and cut off his hair, and he dropped, and fell on stony ground. But he got up and went on, and it began to rain, and it rained forty days and forty nights, and he hid himself in a cave, and he lived on locust and wild honey. Then he went on ‘til he met a servant who said, “Come, take supper at my house.” And he made an excuse and said, “No, I won’t. I have married a wife, and I c...

Of Teaching and Learning

Over the past two weeks, I was invited to attend a block class on "Learning to Teach." After two weeks of class, here are some reflections that I have. We thank God Bro Casey is a pretty humane teacher... :P  Firstly, teaching needs to meet the changing challenges of the 21st century. This is especially pertinent with all the advancements in technology as well as the worldview changes with the generation today. There is simply no room for the teacher to remain stagnant and not be able to keep up with times so as to engage their students and to facilitate learning. Applying to theological education and Bible school, we have to consider what kind of ministers we are training for the churches in the 21st century. If we are training ministers who are able to engage today’s generation, then we need to review the current methods of teaching and train ministers to be savvy in social media and technology and be able to make use of them in their ministries. Reflecting back on...

Of Exegesis, Wedding Preparation and the Whole Lot of Things: Another Reflection

By -

To those who know what happened, the past months since the start of 2016 had been very stressful to me. In the preparation to my impending wedding this coming October, my future father-in-law decided to throw a few spanners into the wedding preparation by declaring that he was not comfortable with me as a life partner to his daughter because I am a full time Christian worker and more importantly because I come from a different family background from her.  The latter means that there are certain practices in my own family which are unthinkable in his worldview on how a family should function. This led to intense tensions between Angelina and myself. To compound the stress, NT Exegesis class was not that easy also and the stress of meeting the deadlines mean that I sometimes did not have the time to reflect deeper into the situations I was facing in my relationship.  However, studying the text of Philemon 15-20 reminded me of the way we should conduct our relationship ...
