May Mentality - The Rise Of A New Breed

It's a new month. May
It's that month. May.
It's that word. May. Allow. Permit. Let.
It's the signal. Time to take action.
It's the clarion call. Hear. Heed.
It's that song. Moving. Forward.
It's the new breed. Takers. Overcomers.
It's the new mentality. Away with the norm.
It's the rebellion. The usual gives way.
It's the emergence of a new system.
It's that time. Time is now. Act.
It's the rise of a new breed. Strong. Determined.
It's the time to march. To Battle. Be Brave.
It's that feeling.
The heart is at the weakest
The battle is at its hottest
Fret Not!
Victory is near!
No time for tears.
Speak to yourself.
Encourage yourself.
May.
Allow.
Permit.
Emit.
Let.
New Month
New breed.
Enlist.
Be the light.
Bring the peace.

Song by Israel Houghton   - Moving Forward.

Event Review: OASIS AprilFeast 2012 - What else can happen?

There's a sense of excitement, anticipation and anxiety that seems to build towards the third saturday of every month. In this case, it's the first "Lunch" edition of Oasis - your place of refreshing. (Sigh of relief for non-early risers). What else can happen - we've seen it all before! Afterall it's been 6 editions, so there shouldn't be so much fuss. 
The theme keeps getting bizarre - "War Cry - The Awakening" - ugh?

Poem: Herein is the love that we feel

Herein is the love that we feel
a deep stiring in our souls
a longing desire to make
to break
to explore
to feel
to transcend

Herein is the love that we feel
an inner longing for something deeper
someone true and passionate
to enter the place
where everything works out
where everyone feels loved

Book Review "Ears Wide Open" by Malachi Talabi

There have been timeless controversies around the theme "I heard God" or "God told me", which has resulted in a questionable stance assumed by church and non-church goers every time they hear these words. Question is does God really speak? How do we recognise His voice if He does? Is there any specific formula or principle to hearing Him? Answers might just have come from South London!

Event Review: Altarsound's OASIS February 2012 - did heaven come down?

Following on the heels of the "Worship Experience - III" held November last year and previous 5 editions, expectations were high as Altarsound Ministries announced the first OASIS event for 2012 to be held Saturday February 18. The theme "Piping Heaven Unto The Earth" raised eyebrows with many wondering and questioning - what's the rationale behind this? 


According to the visioneer Pastor Alexander Victor, OASIS aims to be a forum "to connect with God in worship, prayer, Bible exposition, manifestations of the Holy Spirit along with fantastic food and fellowship as always!"

With so much events currently centered around the worship theme, it's daunting to see how OASIS will be any different?

Here's an account of my personal experience:

Santa meets Jesus: A Post-Christmas Conversation

Santa: Hey Jesus
Jesus: Hey Santa, how are you?
Santa: Very well. Slightly tired, been around the world in one night *yawns*
Jesus: I see. You're getting too old for this, any plans to retire soon?
Santa: Retire? Nah, the world needs me. They need to believe I'm real. So I can't retire
Jesus: I'm not so sure about the "believe" part. Humans find it hard to believe in what they can't see.
Santa: I don't know about you but I've been around a long time to know they do. You just need the right story.
Jesus: Story?

Inspiring Stories: British Military Wives Choir with Gareth Malone

"We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender." Winston Churchill

Music has been described as the food of the soul. Everyone has an emotional connection to one form or music or the other. However getting people to sing professionally (especially if they are not interested or never really done it before) can be a daunting task. This seems to be a specialization that Gareth has acquired.
