EAST MG Retreat 2016
At the EAST Mentoring Group Retreat 2016, speaker Dr. Robert Solomon shared how one can be “apprenticed to Jesus.”

In Solomon’s three messages on Matt. 11:25-30, he spoke on “Come to Me,” the central paradigm to the Christian life is not “doing” or “being,” but “being with.” “Take My Yoke” differentiates between holy restlessness vs. neurotic, nervous restlessness. “Learn from Me” is becoming like Jesus as we deeply imbibe His Word and imitate His Walk.
“The pew cannot rise above the pulpit,” declared Emeritus Bishop Solomon. The minister must spend adequate time in the open bible.
Besides the plenary messages, the staff and students were able to spend rich time with the Lord personally, in worship as a community, enjoying the fellowship and food, and having fun together as a school. Praise God for a great “soulful” start to a new semester!

Blessed New Year 2016!
May God’s presence and favour rests on you daily in the New Year to produce spiritual growth and much fruitfulness in your life, studies, work, and ministry. Have a most blessed New Year 2016!
In this New Year, may we echo the words of Paul: “My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” (Galatians 2:20, NLT)
“You can never finish learning about God’s Word.” – Vonette Bright, 1926 – 2015.
