The annual Christian Solidarity Conference titled “Raise Your Voice for Change” to be held at ICA on 12th-13th March. It begins on Friday at 7 pm with worship by David Ruis and then a short presentation by an actor with the Royal Shakespeare Company. On Saturday, it continues from 10 to 4 with first person accounts of the struggles of persecuted Christians in China, N.Korea, and a play by the Shakespearean actor (at 2 pm).

The next resound is on March 19th, check out http://resound.hk or the facebook event.

The next Hong Kong wide resound is on Janurary 29th at the Vine:

Hey Everyone!

I just found out the school we will be moving to will be avaliable this week, so we will be going there this week.

For this week only we will be still meeting at 5pm at Tai Wai, but we’ll be eventually ending up here at Lam Kau Mow School, 10 Tak Po Street, City One.

We’re still going to have bump out, food, great times and great people (YOU!), so see you all there!

Ok, so we have a twitter feed, don’t ask me why, other than it might be easier to tell you when is raining too much! :-P

Not sure my talk strictly followed the title this week, but along with words from my councellor here is the Rob Bell talk where he talks about heaven and how God loves us. Also here’s the video I showed cause I like this version:

Hey everyone,

Sorry for the ramblings this week. I hope you got something out of it! I meant to say that the presence of God is also kind of the point! That the point of being a Christian isn’t just having our sins forgiven, or having our lives healed, but it being able to experience the love and presence of God, and so the quiet time isn’t about being good, but if is finding the most important thing.

Anyway, I know I made a pretty bold claim when I talked about God being a completely rational belief. I know its not always that simple, but there are definitely a lot of convincing arguments for belief in God in general, and belief in Christianity specifically. Anyway if you want more of the philosophical arguments you can check out this:

Ravi has more videos here or you can listen to MP3s here. The Q & A sessions at US College’s are especially good.

Enjoy!
