One of the blessings & benefits of the Internet is the sharing of resources and especially personal discovery and learning. I read through Winn Griffin’s essay Foundationalism & Story: A Penchant for Minutia and Its Antidote and found the way he integrated his reflection and practical outcomes to be refreshing. I’ve downloaded Jason Clark’s essay…

Dialogue for Dummies!
I’ve always appreciated Brian McLaren’s Conversational tone & dialogical approach in the way he speaks and writes. We need more of that in Malaysian Christianity to move forward.

Positive thinking vs. Constructive Thinking
Got this from my bedtime reading book, New Thinking for the New Millennium by Edward De Bono because I felt I was overdosing myself with Theology, so try something not so “Christian” for a change … and it was fun. I got back to this book on “thinking” because I was reminded in the “Ecclesiology…
Communicating Change
Communicating the process of change and where to go from here is much harder than I thought. I take my hat off to how Cedar Ridge Community Church did it in the light of Brian D. McLaren’s growing role to the wider Christians community. The caption put up was this: The Church was not created…
