Culture and Transformation (Online)
IS530, 3 Credits
9 January – 8 May 2026, Wednesdays, 7.00 pm – 9.00 pm

This course examines how cultures change, the dynamics and processes of change, the place of change agents, and the speed and intensity of change. The implications of such processes are examined in the social, political, economic and religious aspects of society. This aims for students to examine how their own cultures, societies and communities may be effectively transformed for God’s Kingdom purposes.

Hello, You’re Muted – InterGen Dialogue

Posted by eeyuing on March 2, 2022 · Leave a Comment

Hearing every voice in the inter-generational dialogue

Relationships and communication across the generations of leaders are sometimes filled with tension and misunderstanding. Each generation often carries certain unspoken assumptions about the other, and we may have default ways of communicating that can hinder inter-generational understanding. EAST and Capelle are hosting a face-to-face dialogue to bring the generations together for a time of honest conversations. Hear from the panel members who are in their 30s to 60s, on how we can unlearn and relearn healthy ways to relate to one another, build a culture of inter-generational dialogue, and affirm the unique value that each generation brings to the family of God.
