Blessed Lunar New Year 2014
For this Lunar New Year, may you be refreshed by a heartfelt poem inspired by Jeremiah 12:5 and composed by an EAST student, Ms. Koh Li Ting.
How to better receive, process, remember and pass on God’s truths?
Since 80% of people globally are oral preference learners, how do we help them better receive, process, remember and pass on (transmit) God’s truths? An answer is to shape our communication approach holistically with the disciplines of orality-framed content.
Rev. Samuel Chiang (Executive Director, International Orality Network) was recently at EAST to teach and consult on “Orality for Learners and Teachers.” He taught a session at the school’s Principles and Practice of Teaching course, during Chapel, and at an afternoon Seminar with staff, students and guests.
Rev. Chiang demonstrated expository preaching through story-telling of the blind beggar healed by Jesus (see photos below).
EAST Retreat as we Restart for the New Year
“Learning lessons on REST with an amazing Family whom I feel at home with… EAST!” reflected Winnie, a student.
At the start of New Year and new semester, EAST staff and students gathered at the City Beach Resort, Labrador Park as part of the EAST Mentoring Groups Retreat 2014. This was a time to…
• Regather – after a long school break,
• Reconnect – for fellowship and fun together,
• Refocus – aligned at the start of 2014 and the new semester,
• Reflect – to consider how God is at work in our lives, and
• Rejoice – in worship of the Lord.
Classes for this semester has just started and we look forward to great times of learning and growing together! Would you like to join us?
Do you lead teams with members from diverse cultures?
This course explores various aspects of Christian leadership within the context of multi-cultural teams especially in a Church/Christian organization setting. Students will begin to evaluate their own cultural biases and grow to adopt a posture of leadership that will enhance the strengths of their multi-cultural teams. This helps fulfill their God-ordained call and in expanding the Kingdom of God. Dr. Kwa Kiem Kiok and Mr. Mark Suredhran will co-teach this class.
