We have a brand-new website, and it will go live on 12/31. The new website is not a design refresh of our current website. It is rebuilt from scratch in a different website platform called “Nucleus” that specializes in church website. It offers neat features that allow us to use the website not just as storage of information but a hub for all “next steps”. Pastor Chai, who started the house church movement, has taught lead pastors that their main […] The post 351. New Website appeared first on The Seed ..read more

Periodically, we have to upgrade our existing sound equipment, as they eventually get old, outdated and become inadequate to accommodate new needs. Our current audio mixer does not have enough channels to plug additional sound equipment, as the praise team is growing in number. Also, the snake (bundle of cables) has many non-functioning channels, which further restrict the number of available audio inputs. So, our current audio mixer and snake will be replaced with a digital mixer and digital snake. […] The post 350. New Sound Equipment appeared first on The Seed ..read more

It happened many years ago. One of the students I know gave me a parenting tip based on a book he read. I’m sure the intention was good, but I felt pretty repelled by that. After some thinking, I realized I was irritated by the assumption, “I read about it, so I know about it”, which I found arrogant. But I also realized I must have done something similar when I was in my 20s. We have many single people […] The post 349. Wisdom of IDK appeared first on The Seed ..read more

10 Days EMP (Early Morning Prayer) registration is starting next Sunday. Every year, we spend 10 days praying with 2 other partners, going over a book of choice to grow together and start the year with God’s help. This year’s book is “Emotionally Healthy Spirituality”, written by Peter Scazzero. He led a thriving church, but he realized how emotionally immature he was, despite his reputation and ministry experience. Though painful, he humbly started the hard work of facing his real […] The post 348. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality appeared first on The Seed ..read more

I talked about this during the “Thought of The Week” but I have a feeling that some missed it, so I am also writing about it. One of the biggest turnoffs for church visitors is people crowding together at the entrance. It communicates a cliquey, inside-oriented community to them, even though it may not be. I know some people want to chat with the greeting team because they know them well. But that can happen after the service. Imagine you […] The post 347.
