From Facebook posts of friends all around the world, I am made aware that it’s spring – not exactly obvious in one-season Singapore; two, if you consider ‘dry’ and ‘wet’ as seasons. Through this, I am duly reminded of how the Lord affirmed the assignment of Archippus Awakening for me one year ago. Before I share how He …
This week, at 3:18am, on 23 March 2015, Singapore lost a great leader in their founding father, Mr Lee Kuan Yew. For the past few days, tons of tributes and accolades have been posted and shared, and appropriately so. In the words of PM Lee Hsien Loong, “we won’t see another man like him.” Clearly, there will …
This has become a concern as I interact more with various Christians facing challenges and difficulties in their situations and spiritual walk. In the course of our conversation, I would always ask them where they worshipped at. This would indicate at least three things to me: one, if they belonged to a local church; two, if they …
A Positive Church Experience Is Nice; But Not Enough Read More »
Have you ever had one of those moments when an idea pops into your head and it really excites you? You think to yourself, “Whoa, man! What an idea! This must be divine inspiration!” Without any hesitation, you dash out to announce it – prophetically declare, in Christian speak – to the whole world (well, almost), everyone says …
Have you ever felt inadequate? We know that as Christians, we should be the most confident people on planet earth (and some say, in the heavens too). And yet, there are times when we experience doubt. We look to men and women of faith for encouragement only to feel worse. These, we feel, are to …
Can you believe it? At the end of the Special Introductory Session last night (4 Feb), a sister excitedly declared, “Attendance was 101 tonight!” Not that I wouldn’t have been happy if more turned up but I just marvel at how the Lord has allowed certain numbers to be significant in this on-going journey of …
101 Turned Up For Introductory Session of KINGDOM101 Read More »
After a year of baby steps in 2014, Archippus Awakening shifts gears in 2015 through its very first initiative in KINGDOM101. “Er, what is that?” you ask. That’s a really good question. And that’s why I am hosting a Special Introductory Session on 4 February, Wednesday, 7:30pm to introduce the heartbeat of Archippus Awakening and the …
Special Introductory Session of KINGDOM101: Hall Too Small? Read More »
This is the time when people all over the world take stock of a year that has gone by possibly all too quickly. I am prompted to do the same for Archippus Awakening and I invite you to review and reflect with me. It was in October 2013 when the Lord first laid the word …
I’d be the first to admit. The word “awakening” is not original at all. It’s been around for centuries, used so often that it has become part of Christian-speak and jargon. That explains why I was not exactly thrilled when this word was dropped into my heart just over a year ago. Awakening? Ya, right, Lord. Been there. Done …
I’ve always loved reading Garfield and this little strip caught my attention last evening. I know I am a tad biased – ok, very – but doesn’t it remind you about the message of Archippus Awakening? Last October (2013), after the Lord instructed me to step down from my pastoral position, I sought Him for …
