I thought the title was pretty engaging … a brief skim through the article had some statements that caught my attention. Some food for thought, the business world often pushes us to think further 🙂 or at least know what people are thinking so we’re more aware *grin* All in all … my favorite part…
“Open Source” Planning
I found the Emergent Convention Planning Blog to be a wonderful way of “eavesdropping” and “peeking” into the whole process of planning an “event” or “Learning Space” so others can be introduced to new ideas, refined in existing reflections, or challenged in other ways, etc. As one who’s in a traditional denominational education commitee setting…
A Pregnancy Cannot Be Hid
With two new births the last few weeks and two more coming, the whole “image” of pregnancy is just too glaring for me not to ignore. Thanks Christ Erdman for a great follow up post A Pregnancy Cannot Be Hid | From Acceptance to Martyrdom? Here’s the second paragraph to wet your appetite: ___________________________ I…

Thanks Stephen Shields for the links to get the full conversation…
Three Strands of Emergent Thinking about Church
I was drawn to read THREE STRANDS OF EMERGENT THINKING ABOUT CHURCH, and was happy to find there’s a place in the article that encourages “soft voices”. Awesome stuff here! _____________________________ …Building church community is not just a “moral responsibility,” it’s also a formational responsibility, a missional responsibility, a pastoral / incarnational responsibility to care…

Home Alone
I’m home alone tonight, miss a-boy Gareth and mummy May Chin (thankfully they’ll be back from Singapore tomorrow) … wonder how I’ll survive being away for a month 🙁
Hope & Help for the “Institution”?!
(Thanks David Berry for this energizing photo entitled little blessings) Thanks to Maggi Dawn for reminding me of this post I love My Mega Church The post cautions me from”mega-church”-bashing … even though I don’t “feel” called to lead BLC in that “model”. Of course, I’ve given up on “traditional church” basing when I realized…
England Boleh!
Nice to witness England getting a decent win 3-0 over the Swiss at Euro 2004 after being defeated 1-2 by Zidane (opps I meant France right?) in the last game! “Boleh” means “Can” or “Able” in Malay! *grin*
Different Point of View
It’s always encouraging to read from others how they experience BLC whether it’s the worship gathering or LiFe Groups (which is merely the surface of deeper stuff that’s happening). Some from our own members as well as visitors. “A different point of view” is not necessarily an opposing point of view but one that’s just…
