126. My Journey so far as an STM TEE student… 9. My ninth module - The Book of Revelation
This was a very much anticipated class. The month of March was focused on my class for the Book of Revelation, the last book of the Bible and the New Testament. Over the years of my Christian life, I had an up and down relationship with this book. As I grew as a young believer, I was very much caught up in the predictions of the books, the foretelling of the 2nd coming of Christ. When? Where? How? What to look out for? Signs? Miracles? Trials? Those were the questions I sough
125. My Journey so far as an STM TEE student… 8. My eighth module - Biblical Worship & Liturgy
The end of January 2019 arrived and I am hot into my 2nd module for the year, Biblical Worship and Liturgy. Being a Christian for many years, I have always been asked the differences between the denominations. One of the answers is in the way we view worship and the different ways a Sunday service is carried out. Glad to learn not only the details from a Lutheran perspective, but also learnt from the Methodists, the Anglicans, and very many more. Phew! The learnings I most gl

As the curtain draws open into 2019, I started the month of January, again with a burst of momentum. After a few months of quiet to finish my assignments from last year, I'm ready to go again.

123. My Journey so far as an STM TEE student… 6. My sixth module - Ecclesiology and Eschatology
After being a Christian for so many years, I realise I never actually studied the topic of "Church". Also, many years ago, when I was a much younger Christian, I was always intrigued by the study of the "End times", wanting to know when it will happen and what are the signs that will preceed the 2nd coming of Christ etc. However, as I grew up both these topics took back seats to other areas of study, more practical stuff like Worship Leading, Prayer, Missions, etc So I was so
122. My Journey so far as an STM TEE student… 5. My fifth module - Biblical Theology
The first half of 2018 passed really fast, and I have already gone through 4 modules. So many assignments to complete! But I was on a roll, so I signed up for the Biblical Theology module in July. What I learnt from my fifth module: Biblical Theology A new way of looking at the Bible A new way to discover the work of God throughout the scriptures A holistic way to study the Word of God One stream and storyline throughout the Old and New Testament The Old Testament looks forwa
