There’s something special about walking through the Stations of the Cross … even lighting up the candles to set the stations up and blowing them out before I go home is part and parcel of the whoel experience for me. But the greatest sense of fulfilment is when I see people coming and having the…

It’s been a while since I did random thoughts and I haven’t blogged the few series I had in mind “slow cooking”. These are “strange times”. Glimpses of grace here and there – very often when i least expect them. where does our credibility in the constructive work of theology, spirituality and ministry come from…

I’m not into “controversies” … I find it draining. And yet I know perhaps I will still need to face them when they come. so far, I’ve only deleted comments that are “spam” and also one or two where someone else was accused of something I don’t know anything about. Yesterday, I upon the advice…

I love Dave Walker’s cartoons like the one above. I like the free hand style and the content. It was wonderful to have my aunty from the USA come and join us for worship yesterday. Because of her, my other aunty Alice and uncle Jack came along as well. Aunty Grace has been a catalyst…

I thought the discussion on the KJV Bible tonight at a lay preaching class was interesting. It’s good to feel a little stronger after multiple trips to the toilet Wednesday Night and Thursday.

I thought this picture above is fun …. I call it “Three Men and a Toilet” (or more precisely – Bathroom?). Up to you what your imagination might spur you to think. It was a humorous moment during a break at our church refocusing day last saturday. I was thinking about some things I don’t…

I’m glad the outline and basic frame for the STM course on Youth Spiritual Formation & Discipleship is out But I still have a lay preaching course to complete this weekend first 🙂 So, I’m learning to celebrate one little task completed while bearing in mind another is just around the corner. Listening to Brian’s…

I was reminded by my good friend Sherman that often the answers we get are from the questions we ask. It’s plain simple but nice to be reminded of that. BTW, it was amazing to see how his blog died and rose again! It’s nice to send the “Family” category in this blog to friends…

Today was another one of those LONG LONG meetings … lots of important deliberations, discussions, and decisions made. Sometimes, one is tempted to move on faster but we need to work through the issues and concerns as well. I’m learning to laugh as well as try to listen to not just the words from people’s…

I noticed that since I’m “fasting” from potato crisps, they glare at me when I’m in the supermarket. Or wherever I go, somehow … there’s a hold on me 🙂 Glad I could still make it for the LiFE Group today even though at the last moment. It was good to see the group keep…
