Stephen Wolfram has made the complete text of his New Kind of Science (a 1000+-page treatise on the way that virtually everything in the universe can be explained with cellular automata), which he self-published a couple years back with some of the squillions of dollars he’s earned on his seminal Mathematica software program, available for…
Emerging Church
Jason Clark was kind enough to invite me to join the emergent group blog. Haven’t put up my maiden post yet, maybe little shy? Most of the voices on the “Emerging Church” are from UK, USA, Australia, New Zealand, and maybe parts of Europe. The “language” is mostly framed with the however-you-define-it “postmodernity” in mind….

Influence
Just came back from a speaking engagement with HELP Christian Fellowship. It’s great to have a closer relationship with them last year and especially this year. Shared from the book of Daniel today and considered how we can be of any influence in an environment where we seem to be “powerless” in the face of…
CoachNet
After a couple of days with a Natural Church Development coaching seminar with Christoph Schalk probably 2 years ago. I decided to subscribe to CoachNet because I tend to operate with intuition and I felt some strategic-process-linear thinking would do me some good. And I think it has …
FreeMind

ALLELON
What a fantastic “mandarin-orange-red” coloured face-lift and lots of upgrade … a wonderful way to approach the last day of Chinese New year tomorrow called “Chap Goh Mei”!
Scripture Listening
Eugene Peterson drew my attention in one of his writings (possibly from his pastoral theology series) that the Scriptures are meant to be heard. There’s a “personal encounter” somehow when one reads aloud and another listens which is diffirent when one sits alone and reads a passage silently. One of the comments at the “Sabbath…
Sabbath Retreat
We just came back yesterday afternoon from a Two-day-one-night “Sabbath Retreat” at Selesa Hillhomes. It all started some years ago when BLC got “resurrected”. I always wanted to bring a small group of about 10-12 people for a kind of “restful” retreat where we could sleep, play a little, eat, pray and enjoy a taste…
