LIM AH PIN CHURCH OF CHRIST

The theme for the Lim Ah Pin congregation for the year 2026 is “Ye Are The Light Of The World”. This theme reminds us that each and everyone of us must be involved in the work of personal evangelism. Yet, some may feel inadequate or uncertain as to where to start the discussion with a friend or family member. Each of us must be ready to give an answer / defense regarding our beliefs (cf. 1 Peter 3:15), and so over the next few months, I hope it will be useful to examine the t

It is a time to see those who we do not meet as often, to catch up and rekindle family ties and friendships. Nevertheless, we are mindful that there are those for whom a reunion is difficult, if not impossible. There are those whose family members are in another

It’s nearly the new year, and the Chinese community will be celebrating the “Year of the Horse.” As Christians, we do not believe in zodiac signs and horoscopes.  However, we may enjoy it in a casual way, and we may even feel a special connection to our “animal sign.” Personally, I might say that it’s a special year for me because I was born in the year of the horse. In relation to the year of the horse, there’s a famous saying: “马到成功.” Literally, it means “Success arrives as

The role of the parent is often a role that is underappreciated and ill-compensated. Yet, it is arguably the most important work in this world. There is a saying, "The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world." Like it or not, our role as parents will have a vital impact on our children. Unfortunately, we do see children who grow up, and they fail to become the faithful Christian that their parents wished them to be. How can we succeed as Christian parents? Let us learn 7 p

I was gifted a book entitled Big Panda and Tiny Dragon by James Norbury last December. Though it contains only a few words, the book is rich with beautiful illustrations and conveys deep, profound messages about friendship and hope. At first glance, it appears to be a book that can be read through in less than thirty minutes. However, to truly benefit from it, one must slow down and take time to reflect on the underlying messages. I have therefore chosen to approach the book

“And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the LORD fought for Israel” (Joshua 10:14) There was not a day like this one. It was a day when the sun stood still. It was a day when God fought for His people. It was a day when God listened to the voice of a man. Joshua and the Israelites were fighting their enemies in the land of Canaan. It seemed that they needed more time in order to utterly defeat their foes. Jos
