My Reflections on "Facing the Giants"...

Although the movie screened last night was purely fictitious, the reality of God in our lives isn't. We may not identify with the drama, after all life isn't really all that dramatic. In fact, we often find ourselves caught in the humdrum of life, its like a spiral that goes round and round in a lifeless and boring manner. However, what I would identify with in the movie was its creator's passion in trying to convey the wonder and marvel of our God. That message is not far from reality; we often box up and limit our God too much in the big things of our lives. Tag to further comment and discuss!

rEaL cHrIsTiAn ReAl WoRlD - mEtAmOrPhOsIs

Metamorphosis 2007 (26~28 Dec) was truly a breathtaking experience. This is where some of our crusaders have learnt life-transforming lessons about their own walk with God. Well, here is the necessary correction - it is rather the actions and steps crusaders have been challenged to take during the lessons that are truly life-transforming. So what are you waiting for, get out of your seat and spring into action!

You can catch the crusaders who attended the conference, hot in action! (Alvin, Christine, David Mak, David Chow, Joel Swee, Joel Wong, Lee Huan, Richard, Sherlene, Stella, Janice, Yi Qi, Eudora, Yong Chuan, Wilfred, etc) I hope I have not missed out any!

Anyway, for the crusaders who have missed this valuable opportunity, this is a brief sketch of the exciting programme that took place:

Interested to find out what really took place in each of these sessions? Want to take yourself deeper into understanding beyond the mere titles of "guys' and girls' time" and "workshop".

You can have a true first-hand recount by asking any of those lucky participants of Meta '07! Better still, why not get yourself in the thick of the action for Meta '08! Do consider, and see you next year!

META!

Hi everybody...guess what? Amidst your exams and stress, there is something to look forward to! Its none other than META 2007 this December! So why not register today at today?

La Busqueda!

Thank God for delivering! Some highlights from La Busqueda...

A warm invitation to all...
