Personally, I think one great way to help children remember bible verses is to teach them through song.
Not to say bible classes and memorizing memory verses are not important. They are definitely very important.
But one thing I’ve discovered is that children can remember a song they’ve learnt for many many years.
You’d be surprised, even when [...]

True Wealth
Wednesday, 8 October, 2008
“All man’s efforts are for his mouth, yet his appetite is never satisfied.” - Ecclesiastes 6:7
Tonight I was particularly moved by the Pastor’s bible exposition, in a way that I have not been for a long time.
It seemed as if almost every word cut right to the bone.
On a day when the markets in Europe [...]
Christmas Rant
Tuesday, 25 December, 2007
I think it’s lamentable that many a times it’s so easy for us to lose track of the true meaning of Christmas.
To most of us, Christmas means one or more of the following:
- A time to show your loved ones how much they mean to you
- A time to make merry
- A time to reflect [...]
Our Daily Bread - “Herd Instinct”
Wednesday, 18 April, 2007
(Taken from Our Daily Bread, RBC Ministries, 17th April ‘07. Visit www.rbc.org.)
Near the village of Gevas in eastern Turkey, while shepherds ate their breakfast, one of their sheep jumped off a 45-foot cliff to its death. Then, as the stunned shepherds looked on, the rest of the flock followed. In all, 1,500 sheep mindlessly stumbled [...]
These Are Tough Times…
Saturday, 3 March, 2007

Y’know, you used to read in 1st Corinthians chapter 3 about factions in the church and all that, and you used to think to yourself that this kind of thing only happened in those churches back in those days…but it’s times like these when you realize that such things are so much [...]
The Nativity Story
Friday, 29 December, 2006
I watched The Nativity Story at the cinemas recently.
You can read the reviews here, but here are my thoughts on the movie:
I really liked how the movie manages to flesh out certain aspects of the nativity story, aspects which I normally tend to just gloss over when reading the Bible.
It highlighted certain scenes of the story [...]
Christmas ‘06
Monday, 25 December, 2006
Have a blessed Christmas everyone.
…
And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you [...]
The Bible Verse Outside Tangs
Wednesday, 15 November, 2006
Was walking along Orchard Road yesterday, and I noticed a huge decorative banner of a bible verse that was put up as part of this year’s Christmas decoration for Tangs Plaza (at least I think it was Tangs Plaza…it was one of those buildings opposite Wisma Atria).
My first reaction was “wow, it’s nice to know they’ve put up [...]
