Last Sunday, we had a guest speaker in our church. I have known this particular speaker from my undergrad days in UKM. He is not one to mince his words and he hasn’t changed one bit! His sermon on Sunday stunned the church some what. You can hear a pin drop in the uneasy silence. The sermon was short, but not sweet indeed. 
To get a different perspective, do read jonzz’s write-up on it: www.jonzz.blogspot.com (sorry guys I still haven’t figured out how to link some one).
I have great respect for this speaker and his life shows his conviction. He walked the talk, literally. His sermons have always been hard, even harsh. It makes us squirm in our seats. It makes us uneasy and a small whirlpool of guilt or conviction began to swirl in our conscience.
I think this kind of sermon is needed (but not every week, somedays we just want to feel good! Heh heh!) as it jolts us out of our complacency and think about issues that are more important and to do something about it.
Ok, gotta run. Clinic today. Sigh. Back to the grind.

The problem is, which one to grab la????
aiya, why make it sound so difficult, no need to learn all html… just grab a piece here and there when u encounter a technical issue.
LM, yup i really gotta learn html. In fact,that would be my next pet project as soon as I can get this thesis done and handed up, pass out of the Masters course and head for greener pasture. Heh heh!
It takes years to build up respect and a single careless act to bring it all down. This guy did come once before and I thought I had a decent opinion then.
But for that one occasion, I feel that all he was doing was blasting his grievances and using examples that made it seem like personal attacks on the church. You and I are probably used to a myriad of character types. However we must consider there are many who may not be and get offended. A guest speaker only has to come in and blast his opinion. The church has to pick up the pieces in his wake.
you’ve got to learn some html coding. jonzz will teach you that.
sigh.. why IT everybody can learn huh? so easy meh? yup, its easy. because its made by Man.
