EAST Chapel: Talk Show on Love

Posted by on January 23, 2018 · Leave a Comment 

The EAST Chapel theme for this semester is “The Greatest Of These Is Love” based on 1 Corinthians 13. Each Chapel Service is organized by a different Mentoring Group (MG) of faculty and students with the freedom of format but focused on the theme.

1 Corinthians 13 begins with: “If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal” (v. 1, NIV). The last chapel service saw the organising MG using a talk show format to creatively introduce the biblical theme of love. There is perhaps no better way to start a semester with a resounding call and timely reminder to love each other selflessly especially within the body of Christ as expressed locally through the EAST community.

Hear Pastor David Sun’s story of his journey of grace with a stopover at EAST. David (MDiv, 2019), like other mature students at EAST, comes with a rich set of experiences in life and ministry. Those experiences are then reviewed through fresh biblical-theological lens of Scripture, reflections, holistic application, and habit formation in the context of a multi-cultural missional community at EAST. Shalom.

Grow your head, heart, and hands at EAST in the second half of your life. For more information about EAST’s holistic learning journey, visit: www.east.edu.sg/number-our-days/

EAST Mentoring Group Retreat 2018

Posted by on January 8, 2018 · Leave a Comment 

How does one experience shalom peace and pray without ceasing in busy Singapore as student, staff, and faculty of a Bible school?

Dr Alex Tang, the plenary speaker, led all at the EAST Mentoring Group Retreat 2018 on a “Spiritual Tune-up” in the first week of the new year. The spiritual formation retreat helps each to discern the different ways one connects with God, to do a check-up of one’s spiritual inventory, and to begin developing a soul-care action plan. Praise God!
