Its a stressful place to live. I walked in education and I am expected to exceed expectations because government demands excellance.
Singaporeans in general don't know how to relax unlike our neighbors in Malaysia.
Cost of living is high because we import almost everything.

Part 3
The nation’s first Prime Minister, Lee Kuan Yew, understood that Singapore was small, vulnerable, and without natural resources. His dream was to build a secure, disciplined, multiracial, and corruption-free nation where success depended on merit and hard work. He was strict because he...
Part 2
During the early years of British settlement, many Christian missionaries came to Singapore and established schools such as St. Andrew’s School, Presbyterian High School, and Methodist Girls’ School. Christian ministries were active in these schools, and as a result, many students...
@bobinfaith and @hazel I will divide my description of Singapore into 3 parts. This is part 1. Part 2 and 3 to follow in due course.
Part 1
Singapore was established in 1819 by Sir Stamford Raffles as a British trading post, at a time when it was a small fishing settlement inhabited mainly by...
@bobinfaith and @hazel happy to tell you more. I presume you reside in USA? May I ask why the interest to visit a tiny red dot in Asia? It is not normally in someone's list. 😊
Yes call me Andrew, the name my parents gave me. Thank you for sharing. The story of the elderly man hit me. It is something I can do since I am semi-retired.
Thank you.
I wonder if Jesus' disciples would do that in the streets of Athens?
Christian witness is not validated by how it feels to the speaker but by whether it reflects Christ’s character and actually leads others toward understanding the gospel (Matt 7:16; 1 Cor 14:8–9).
If an approach creates...
What are your thoughts about this kind of evangelism: an elderly man at the corner of Oxford Street with a sign that says Jesus. Will this can of evangelising be appropriate? What are your thoughts?

Hi Linda
I am not here to 'preach to the converted'.
When I explained what a dispensationist is, I was merely replying to your question. It was never my intention to sway you to my point of view. And I respect your viewpoint. There are other arguments too the differ from ours.
Let us agree to...

Here is some more information about the building of the 3rd Temple.
When I was in Isreal some years ago, I learned that certain religious groups in Israel (not the state) have made preparations for a possible Third Temple—including crafting ritual vessels, priestly garments, and studying...
It's not that how well I make my home somehow measures me but rather homemaking is an opportunity to sew to the Spirit and serve God. It is the hidden person of the heart that God treasures. So if I serve in my home with a good attitude, love, and view to honor God, the temporary engagement of homemaking becomes my spiritual advantage.
Jesus spoke in a way that exposed pride and blindness. “Every one that doeth evil hateth the light… lest his deeds should be reproved” ~John 3:20. When someone resists the truth, it is not because the truth is unclear. It is because the heart does not want it.
