This is a good post from Pastor John Piper (taken from DesiringGod.org). The article was written back in 1998 but just like the Bible, the words stand true through out ages and many generations.
Note: This actually applies to Sunday afternoon and evening as well :)
Glo Bible – the Bible goes digital!
Oct 16th
This is probably the coolest Bible software that I’ve ever seen (well, based on the trailer though). It’s the Bible plus other great information you’ll ever need in studying the history and the facts on the Bible events/history. The Glo Bible software includes tons of High Definition Videos, pictures, real maps, and other factual information about things that happened during the early church and when the events in the Bible took place.
Worth checking the video trailer below:
Overcome laziness, learn from the ants!
Sep 29th
I was sharing this to our Youth service last Saturday so I thought I might share it here as well. In the Book of Proverbs, we were told to follow the ants (Proverbs 6:6-8 which was written by King Solomon). King Solomon was the wisest king and it is interesting to find out why such a wise king asked us to look at the ants. It is also interesting at first to know that the Bible on Proverbs 30:24-25 actually says that the ants “are small” and have “little strength”.

When God Made You song
Sep 22nd

I went to a friend’s wedding party on Sunday night a couple of days ago and a couple of our friends were singing a song “When God Made You” originally sang by Newsong and Natalie Grant. I couldn’t really hear the lyrics at the party but when I looked at a YouTube video and the lyrics… wow, it moved me.
If you haven’t heard the song before, have a look at this embedded video with the lyrics + song. Whether you already have someone by your side or not, it doesn’t really matter as this song has blessed me who is still waiting for His perfect time. I hope the song can be a blessing to you too.
Fireproof movie review
Sep 14th
I was watching a movie titled Fireproof last weekend on a Youth service at our church. I really recommend you to watch this movie too if you haven’t!
It’s the same maker (Sherwood Baptist Church) of the movie “Facing the Giants” which I saw on our Easter camp last year. If you like “Facing the Giants”, you’ll love Fireproof (I think Fireproof is even better than Facing the Giants). It has a great storyline, great actors/actresses, and also great biblical values (much better than Facing the Giants).

This was a cell group resource that I shared to my cell group members a couple of weeks ago based on Ephesians 4:1-6. Feel free to use, give a feedback, and modify to your cell group needs.
Why do we have to maintain the unity of the church?
How do we maintain the unity of the church?
Hopefully you can share and teach your cell group members how important it is to maintain the unity and teach them why it is important.

Lisa, the owner of Christian-Single-Woman.com interviewed me through some series of questions via email last week. The questions were quite specific and challenging but they remind me of a few things, especially my main motivation on setting up this blog through her question:
Though you’re not new to blogging, please tell my visitors a little bit about yourself, why you decided to create a Christian blog and how it has blessed both your life as well as the lives of others.
The whole interview can be read on Lisa’s website at Christian-Single-Woman.com.
A boy and the nails on the fence
Aug 11th

There once was a little boy who had a bad temper. His father was very concerned for his son’s future and thought hard about how he could explain to his son why relationships are so important and controlling his temper is a key factor in this.
After much thought his father gave him a bag full of nails and told him, “Every time you lose your temper, hammer a nail into the back of the fence.” His son did not understand but knew that his father was wise so he agreed.
On the first day that the boy received his bag of nails he ended up driving about 37 nails into the fence. Each day he learned little by little to control his temper. He discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence.
Finally the day came when the boy didn’t lose his temper at all.
