Website Plan

Just a quick update, I haven't been posting for almost 5 months now and it is for a good reason. I currently have no computer to use as of now, and I don't want to do my blogging through the computer I use at work. Lots of ideas and topics have been thought of, and also forgotten but I still hope I can regularly post stuff on this blog or on a website other than blogger.

I plan to put up a website hopefully by next year, I just need to plan it out more and earn for the hosting costs (and hopefully my own laptop).
That's all, Merry Christmas and a Happy New year.

More than views | 1 year old blog

My very first blog post was posted August 22. 2014. So, technically August would be the birth month of this blog :) Since it is August, I "need" to post something, right?  xD

Availability over Ability | God's blessing to our youth fellowship

Last Sunday, we had our Youth Fellowship after a long break due to busy schedules last march-april. It was great and amazing and also encouraging to see our youth attend even if that day, may 3 is when the fight of Mayweather-Pacquiao is scheduled(May 3 because of the time difference). And most of the time, when Pacquiao fights, a lot of Filipinos watch, and you will notice the significant decrease in attendance. Even if the fight started after church, around 1 pm, our youth stayed for our fellowship that we have around 1-3pm after lunch.
Another great thing that happened was our lesson, and the result of our activity that day.

Back from the dead | A reason to take a break and to write again

Easter has just finished last sunday, and if you guys are not familiar with what's special about Easter, it's about when Christ rose up from the dead to show that he is God, he can be trusted, and there is victory over death.
I have not posted for around 2 months now, and there are reasons why I haven't posted any blogs or stories, and also a reason for writing one now.

In the beginning, GOD... | More of HIM less of ME

In the beginning, GOD... Genesis 1:1 talks about God's creation as the beginning of everything.
This post, however, is not about Creation, or Genesis, but it is about redefining WHO is at the center of our relationship with God.

New Year's Resolution | The change starts with...

Just a quick post to greet you a happy new year. 

We often start the year with a list of things to change, a.k.a. New Year's Resolution. But, most of these are often neglected, forgotten and never started. Some are serious, some are not. Some of the things listed are good, some are serious and some are life-changing.

"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." - 2 Corinthians 5:17

What about life-changing things? From bad deeds to good? From doing what is selfish to doing what is right? I just want to share that, we don't need to wait for the end of the year to see what things should be changed, or wait for a new year to have a new life. For spiritual, and often "good deeds", we just need to go back to Christ, and let Him change us.

That's all, Blessed New Year everyone :)

My dad...(bow) | The Life of a Pastor (A PK's perspective)

Though he may never read this post, it's somehow dedicated to him. Well, Happy Birthday dad. (Dec 28)

Let's see, what is it like having a dad as a pastor... or a pastor as a dad? hmmm.

A failure: Finding a purpose through Christ

I'm a failure. Not because I'm not doing anything with my life. Not because I did not dedicate my life to God, and Not because I'm not doing anything for Him. I'm a failure for today's society of "success." But despite this seemingly failure, i'm still proud to say that I am still useful and joyful in being part of the ministry.

Influences in teaching | what I learned from being a teacher and youth leader

I have been teaching for our youth group for a few years now, and I just want to share some influences that helped me shape my teaching style, and be a youth leader at our church. Believe it or not, anime and manga is a part of these influences! Read on and you'll know why.

Decem-brrr | God's Blessings

What's going on? I'm having a writer's block. A writer's block is when.. write.. stuff.. idea? what?
I already started 3 blog posts. started. At least, I already made a sentence for each blog post, ahaha.

Hopefully I can continue and finish it by this December.
I will make this promise now, in order for me to be challenged to do it. This month, I will publish these 3 blog posts, 1. Influences in teaching 2. I'm a failure 3. My dad.. (bow)

My last post was November 18.. and it was an update, just like this one. So yeah, I haven't really posted a relevant blog post dealing with a certain topic aside from an update. But, I guess an update is just as relevant as the other blog posts, at least for me, because years from now, I could read this and think "oh, I did that?" or "that happened?" and just laugh or cry, or whatever.

Where is this post leading to? Maybe I'll just tell a story then.

Blessed November | God's blessings

It's 10:00pm and it's kinda boring. Not yet inspired to write another blog post article, so I just want to write an update about God's grace in my life. Atleast, 5 years from now I would read this again and say "My November is so blessed." 

God's grace can forgive our mistakes

Roy Harper: "Don't Abandon me." Oliver Queen: "Never."

Reading the Bible with Grace

How do we read the Bible? What do we look for when we read the Bible? Answers? Instructions? Information? Let me just share with you what I look for when I read the Bible.

Category is my name

We live in a world full of labels and categorization. This post actually has a label to sort things in order. It is for me (and you, the reader) to easily view all posts under the same label having related topics. Most of the time, as Christians, we view others with a label, and in this post we will see the dangers of categorizing people.

...
This is part of the "C" Series where I tackle some problems I observe with the church and individual Christians. This is NOT to discredit the Christian Faith, but to renew it. To learn from our mistakes and move forward.

God's will through desperate times

It is easy to say "It is God's will" or "It is God's plan" when we see the big picture. But when we are facing trials, struggles or in desperate times, it really is hard to say that "This is part of God's plan" until we see the result, or when we receive something better. When Joseph was sold by his brothers to the traders, it was only years later that we will realize that it was part of God's will, His plan to save a country and the brothers of Joseph.

A dangerous "light" | Christians as light or fire?

It is often quoted that "Christians are the light of the world." It is a challenge to Christians. But, the church and Christians are often seen as "enemies" by the secular and non-believers. Sometimes, Christians are really at fault on why we are seen that way. Are we a light, or a wildfire?


This is NOT to discredit the Christian Faith, but to renew it. To learn from our mistakes and move forward.

October Updates

Updates on this blog. Check the "About" page and read my About me, and About this blog. I have included information and goals about this blog. The labels and topic categorizations are also there.

This post: New blog post type and my reading, music and youtube list.

My Grace is sufficient

This song <3 And listen to the message of the chorus.

"Do you believe?" | Turning an empty belief to a genuine belief in the Gospel

"Do you believe?" - This is a phrase that most of us use when we explain our beliefs. In this case, I am talking about the Gospel of Jesus Christ. So, my question with how we use this "Do you believe?" phrase is this. What are the next words that comes after the phrase? Is it "Do you believe [me]?" or "Do you believe [in the Gospel of Jesus Christ]?"

Encourage One Another

It is not uncommon for teens, or young people, to look for enjoyment in the church. I, too, once looked for enjoyment on other churches when I can't find one on our church. As a church, we are one body who are there for each other. We are there to encourage one another.
