Decisions..decisions...
Counting down the number of assignments i've to hand in. In the midst of churning out paper after paper, I'm bogged down with many issues to handle. Major decisions to be made, problems to be settled. By God's grace, I'm still surviving. Things are not that bad..just that it's not convenient to mention here..but some of you may know what is happening (with regards to either one or both issues).
Visited ARPC Mandarin ministry on Sunday. Was a last minute decision cos Dad suddenly mentioned that he wanted to go in the morning. The topic was “我们都是罪人吗?”.
Boon Yong preached from Romans 5:12-21 and referred to Genesis 3 as well. Though I've just done this passage in English, understanding it in Chinese is slightly different. Slower, I guess. Haha.. After the sermon, we had a group discussion to reinforce and clarify what we have learnt. Thought it was really helpful and also provides a warm environment for seekers, no pressure at all. The small congregation gave us an opportunity to get to know more people, a few whom I've met at Project Timothy and the Friday service as well. Glad to find out that my dad found the preaching clear and it challenged him to study the passage even more. To my surprise, met Dr. Ng (the guy who shared at the recent Teachers' Retreat). That makes it 2 NIE lecturers. The other one is my current lecturer Ms Foo. Small world...Boon Yong invited my dad to join them for Bible Study class every Tues, hope he will attend and grow in knowledge of God. :)
