What’s the Point of Church? (mp3) I was laughing and brought to some simple deeper reflections after listening to my UK friend Jason Clark He asked a great question, “What if community is a by product of being and doing church?”. A great antidote to the consumer streak in us! Simon Mayo interviews Rowan Williams…
Jesus: hero or zero?
I like this poster from Churches Advertising Network which I found in rejesus. It’s my personal theme picture this Christmas season and kind of for my church Christmas Worship gathering … as I consider the Christ whom I adore is actually a revolutionary! For those who would like to join us, our BLC Christmas gathering…
Numb?
Here’s something I scribbled (I mean typed) for our church Christmas edition newsletter .. minimal editing here just some raw reflections – as usual. 🙂 ________________________________________________________________ “Few of us can do great things, but all of us can do small things with great love.” ~ Mother Theresa “So the Word became human and lived here…

Little Drummer Boy
These photos were taken more than one year ago November 4, 2004. Wow! I remember being amazed that Gareth held “matchstick” position for the drum sticks so well and he has good posture even though he can’t reach the pedals … It’s such a delight to look at these pictures and recall the joy hanging…

The pig is committed.” ~ Martina Navratilova, interviewed in 1982. My prayer is that as we’ve passed the last sunday of Advent moving towards Christmas .. we…

When the son writes you better listen …
I got an interesting email today where my young friend writes RE: Mr. CHEAH MISREPRESENTS MY FATHER’S RELIGIOUS POSITION. I wonder whether Gareth would do the same if I was inaccurately described as a New Age pastor because I appreciate Michael Hedges and Will Ackerman (now that’s another story). Apparently, the response is triggered by…
Random Thoughts with Pink Floyd Music on itunes
My physical body cries out sleep … arrested a runny nose with one pill. Decent meeting with BLC’s Children ministry core team today. There’s still a lot more work to do in 2006. We’ll start more tidying up on the 31 December 2005 🙂 My exhaustion might be due to “too much” decibels a while…
