In 2 Samuel 23:8-13, we read an interesting account concerning David’s 3 mighty men. Their names were Adino, Eleazar, and Shammah. The Scriptures record their acts of bravery and might. In particular, there was something incredible that they did for their king. In 2 Samuel 23:15-17, we read that David was thirsty and desirous for a drink from the well at Bethlehem. Unfortunately, during that time, Bethlehem was in the hands of the Philistines. To fulfil David’s desire, his 3

In 2017, I had the opportunity to travel to Uganda, Africa, with my colleagues in business. The mission work was organised through a denominational group. At that time, I was still relatively unfamiliar with the scope of global evangelism. The trip was truly an eye-opening experience. Coming from Singapore and the Philippines, I had never fully realised how diverse the world is and how many communities remain spiritually under-served. As we visited different places and met pe

Today, it is not always clear what most people mean when they use the term “quality time”. Sometimes, parents may use the phrase to make themselves feel better when time with their children is in short supply. Yet children do not only need occasional moments fitted into our schedules. They need the steady presence, attention and guidance of their parents. Ronald Levant, a psychologist at Harvard Medical School, once observed that “quality time” can sometimes become a way of

"Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths." — Proverbs 3:5–6 (NKJV) If there is one thing that the past few years have taught us, it is that life is full of uncertainty. Even in Singapore, uncertainty has become part of everyday life. The cost of living continues to rise. Electricity bills, groceries, and transport fares are more expensive than they used to be. Companies res

After 27 years of being off the shelves, pig blood products have made a comeback to supermarkets and restaurants in Singapore. Animal blood food products had previously been prohibited in Singapore due to the 1999 Nipah virus outbreak. With the comeback of such food, what should be the Christian response? Can we eat such? Symbolism of Blood Under the Law of Moses, the Israelites were prohibited from eating blood. They were warned that those who ate blood would be cut off from

We have just concluded the June Camp 2026 last week, and I hope that it was a great period of fun and fellowship with brethren from both congregations, building and renewing friendships and creating memories together. Amidst the fun and games, we also heard many great devotions and lessons throughout the camp, and how we can apply these lessons in our daily lives. The theme of this year's June Camp is “Making Hard Choices”. One of the more memorable lessons that I still reme

I read this interesting story: This particular family had three small children who were determined to have a puppy. Mom protested because she knew that somehow or other, she would end up caring for the critter. True to form, the children solemnly promised that they would take care of it. Eventually, she relented and they brought their little puppy home. The children named him Danny and cared for him diligently - at first. But, sure enough, as time passed, Mom found hersel

Aside from God’s divine love, there is no greater love than a parent’s love. A parent’s love is arguably the most natural form of love that exists in this world. Parents would do anything for their children. Parents sacrifice much in order to provide a better world for their children to live in. As we prepare to celebrate Father’s Day soon, we give thanks for all fathers who love their children sacrificially and unconditionally. As great as a parent’s love may be, all parents

“It gets easier. Every day it gets a little easier. But you gotta do it every day — that’s the hard part. But it does get easier.” ― Jogging Baboon from BoJack Horseman. The above famous quote from the Jogging Baboon to Bojack after Bojack collapsed while running perfectly captures the brutal truth of building habits and overcoming personal struggles. It implies that building good habits, healing, or improving your life gets less painful over time, but the real challenge i
