This week has been a good week …On Monday, Andy Morgan’s little book packed with bite-size wisdom Under Pressure: How to Avoid Getting Squashed By Pressure arrived. I like it … in fact I think there’s loads of goodies there we so called “adults” could use! Thanks Andy. Then of course, the package above with…
Month: September 2004
A-boy with Yeh Yeh
This is a rare shot by John Kit (my younger brother) of my Dad and his grandson Gareth during Dad’s birthday on the 9th of September. We also managed to have time for dinner together last night (which was mooncake festival!) These are precious moments we treasure.
Facing the Fury Within
From SacredGateway this morning (cf. Luke 9:51-56, when Jesus’ disciples told the Lord to command fire down to burn the unwelcoming Samaritans), “When we calm down in prayer, similar furies and indignations can rock us. As we stop moving, and quiet our bodies, resentments can bubble to the surface of our mind. Let them bubble…
Emergent Malaysia Notes (one more)
I’m delightfully surprised by the responses “generated” by our so called first pretty informal gathering actually.

Random Thoughts in the Growing Room

I told Andy Morgan that I’m “100% with you on “whatever your view, i do think that the church and its leaders must start to think theologically. ” Especially, in…
Emergent Malaysia Notes
These two individuals just have the amazing ability to construct beautiful paragraph art pieces with words. In short, they take better notes than me! Here goes some excerpts … From Messy Christian’s Emergent Malaysia’s first meet (click the link for some cool pictures from her point of view) Wah, sound so grand but actually it’s…
Emergent in Malaysia … baby steps
At first I thought could it just be me? I dont’t think I’m the only guy who resonates with a big chunk of the stuff in Emergent Village right? Then some emails exchanges transpired. The next thing is three of us young men met up – three pretty good looking I must say (all praise…
