Singapore’s Year of Jubilee

Posted by jonathan on August 7, 2015 · Leave a Comment

EAST celebrates with Singapore on her year of Jubilee and stands with the nation as she celebrates the 50th anniversary of her founding. Majulah Singapura! Onward Singapore!

We look back to give praise and thanks to our God for the leaders He has raised to lead the country for the past 50 years. We look at the present and are filled with gratefulness for the blessings He has bestowed on us as a people. We look forward to the future with hope and humility before our God as we trust him for the next generation and pray for our nation to be a blessing to many more.

“I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them. Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity. This is good and pleases God our Savior.” (1 Timothy 2:1-3, NLT)

Jubilee Clapper shown above is originally from the Singapore Jubilee Day of Prayer 2015.

Evening Courses @EAST (July to November 2015)

Posted by jonathan on July 6, 2015 · Leave a Comment

Do join in one or both of EAST Evening Courses beginning the week of 20 July 2015:

Theology of Missions – by Dr. Raymond Song (IS540A, 2 credits)
Tuesdays: 7.00 pm – 9.15 pm

Will you join a mission trip in the future or mobilize others to go? This course will better equip you through a study of the underlying principles and theological presuppositions of the global Christian mission. It provides theological foundations for the global mission of the church, and will attempt to help you unify and integrate a wide range of theological themes in and around the issues of mission. Basic issues that confront the missionary will be investigated, as well as the more complex and contemporary issues.

Physical Settings of the Bible – by Dr. Keith Shubert (BS531, 2 Credits)
Selected Thursdays: 7.00 pm – 9.15 pm

Have you gone on a Holy Land tour in the past and would like to learn more about the places you visited? Or would you like to go sometime in the future? This course will help you better understand the biblical geography, history, and culture. The evening seminars are designed to enhance your personal understanding and study of the Bible.
