The Good Boy I Am
As many of you should know i am a Christian...
As for those of you who dont know...
Now you know! =)
Just like the good Christian boy i am, i wana grow in my knowledge & understanding of Jesus Christ as well as in my relationship with Him & my father God.
But there is only one way to grow... By spending time wif God!
How do you spend time wif God?
- Read God's word (the bible)
- Converse with God (pray)
- Gather with fellow Christians in His name (fellowship of the Christ)
I can do the former two by myself in the privacy of my super amazing room here in NZ.
But wadabout the latter?
The best way to do it is to go to church!
So wad church do i attend in Wellington?
City Church!

Why City Church and not any other church in Wellington?
Well, first of all this church has hit my weakspot... they really know how to attract a young Malaysian Chinese guy like me...
The bribed me... with FOOD!!!
Yes, pastors all around the world reading my blog...
The secret to outreach... lies in the belly!
I was treated to a newcomers welcome dinner at the begining of my patronage and not only did i experience the wonderful cooking of some of the church members...
I was also treated to the wonderful personalities that form the pool of their hospitaliy team.
They were all so friendly, cheerful and smiling like they didnt hav a care in the world except in taking care of you!
This made me feel confortable in a foreign land full of white-skinned natives wif a different culture.
They gave me an experience i am familiar wif at every house of the Lord (church)... love.
By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples,if ye have love one to another.
(John 13:35 KJV)
Besides the food... this church is impressive in the way it runs its Sunday services as well!
There are two parts to a church service.
First, there is a worship. Then, the sermon.
They allow the people here the freedom of worship during worship...
This means that as the worship team plays the songs and as the lyrics are projected on the screen, you are allowed to praise God or worship God in your own way.
You can sing along... you can clap your hands... you can jump... you can raise your hands to heaven... you can close your eyes... do wadeva you wana do to praise God with all your heart!
For it is not wad you do that matters...
It's the manner in which you praise...
Praise ye the LORD.I will praise the LORD with my whole heart,
The preaching was at first simple and basic, kinda like milk...
And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power.
(1Corinthians 2:4) All in all, this church will be the church i will commit myself to during my stay in Wellington.
If you are interested in seeing wad wonderful things go on at church, feel free to join me every Sunday!

but now it's getting more and more meatier! Like red meat! Yum!
And they preach form God's word so they arent a seperatist cult group or sumthin preaching about themselves and not about Jesus.
