These days, we have coined the term “Adulting” to describe what previous generations has just accepted as the normal part of growing up and being a responsible adult. Often too, we struggle to “adult” in the church. Thus, many of us struggle with “adulting” in the church. How can a young person strive for godliness in the church?
Reading, in general, is a good habit and so is reading good Christian literature. In this new blog series, we hope to periodically feature books that fellow “young people” have taken the time to read. This review features Making All Things New: Restoring Joy to the Sexually Broken by David Powlinson.
Marie Kondo has recently introduced the phrase “spark joy” into popular speech. Christians often speak about joy too, but what does it really mean? What if I’m not really feeling the joy of Christ now? What if He just isn’t sparking joy for me? Does it mean that I’m not a Christian, and what should I do?
Is this your struggle? Has it crossed your mind before? If so, you are not alone.
One-on-one. Life-on-life.
Perhaps you’ve heard these phrases used to describe Christian discipleship. But what exactly should one do when we meet another?
It’s not that difficult, and a lot of it is quite intuitive. Here, we’ve split it into 3 categories: before, during and after the meeting.
The Holy Spirit — is it something that Christians “agree to disagree”, where some are more “Bible people” while others are more “Spirit people”. Not quite. Jesus Himself taught on the Holy Spirit in John 14-17, and the Spirit as a member of the Trinity is a person with a unique role. But in our modern church circles, we may have drawn a division when the Bible does not have such a dichotomy.
What do we do when the Christian life feels less than awesome? This is a common question that we all struggle with and here, we’re taking a deeper look at what the Bible says joy is, how we are to experience it, and also what are some obstacles in our lives.
There is much confusion outside the church and also within the church about God’s design for gender. Too often we subject ourselves to cultural norms, either in the secular sense, or also within the church. It is important to wrestle with what the Bible says.
In 2013, Chinese leader Xi Jinping proposed a bold vision for globalisation and economic development – the Belt Road Initiative (BRI) also known as “One Belt, One Road”. More than just a political move, what does this mean for Christians and Christian mission?
This is often a busy time of the year, and amidst the flurry of activities, we also tend to be pensive and reflect on the year that has just passed. We take some time to reflect on all that has happened in 2017, and thank God for His blessings and provisions!
How do we follow Jesus in the mundane things in life? In this new blog series, we'll explore how we can be disciples every day and fight for obedience in faith in the seemingly small things. We'll begin with reflecting on Paul's words to young Timothy.
In Judges 6:11-40, the life of Gideon shows us a man who was too fearful to stand up when God called upon him to do His will. Repeatedly, God had to show him His power, and redefine him by His grace. Grace makes us grow up.
We live in a highly connected world but despite all the social media, this generation seems to be lonelier than ever. Articles have been written on this issue, but what does the Bible say about this?
