使者《整全門徒訓練》I.D.zone 最新講座
是不是這樣的父母才會這樣的綁住我?
一個三歲的小朋友會覺得爸媽的管教是他的安全感;
而到二十三歲時,我們反覺得爸媽的管教成為我們的約束 ...
甚至會反問「是不是我的父母才會這樣的綁住我?我快要窒息了!」
為什麼當我們越是長大,我們越覺得爸媽對我們越是綁住?
透過以下一連串的題目,好讓幫助我們與父母有一個更新的關係:
。成人責任大檢閱
。父母管束的成因與背後的故事
。如何跟父母建立更健康的關係
時間: 9月22日 星期六 1:30-4:30pm

「Made in China/中國製造」相信是目前世上最流行的標簽。
事關到貨架上隨手拿起一件貨品，不論哪一國家的公司出品，十居其九都是中國製造。
記得有一年的加拿大國慶，有口痕友提出抗議，埋怨為什麼連加國國旗都有 Made in China 字樣，這算不算不愛國的表現？！
但其實無計，在現今國際化全球化的商業社會，中國又是世界工廠，國旗在中國製造，是一個很自然的商業現象。
不過近來在美國就有公司在商品上，特別加上 No China 無中國生產原料的標簽。原因跟愛國主義無關，而是出於安全及商業考慮。
相信大家還記得，前一排一些寵物糧食含有有害物質，弄死弄病了身嬌肉貴的北美貓狗。美國食物及藥物安全局調查後發現，是當中來自中國的飼料受到工業化學物質的污染。之後就接二連三出現嚇人的消息，由有毒牙膏，到不達標車呔，到含鉛玩具，層出不窮。
其實中國產品質量有問題，並非新鮮事。連假雞蛋，假鼓油都叫落後。被毒害的中國人民不知凡幾。只是在自家圍內發生，毒死自家人，並未能刺激有關當局大力打擊。但現在丟假丟到國際社會，基於國際形象、民族尊嚴、商貿利益的考慮，中國政府就不得不高調一點。
有中國官員反駁，是西方傳媒炒作，再加上有針對中國人士，兼貿易保護主義者小事化大，醜化中國產品的形象。
這些反駁並非全無理據。現在每兩三日就有發現中國產品有毒的報告；民調顯示，很多加國市民擔心進口貨品質的趨向；不時有政客跳出來要求更嚴格抽檢中國貨，在在都顯示背後有有心人搞作。
又有中國官員說，若發現別國產品有問題，中國一般會靜悄悄跟該國政府聯絡，而不是將事情發揚光大。
中國政府的做法非常貼心，關心到對方的商貿利益、國際面子、人心安定，情操之高令人叫絕。但這並不是國際市場的遊戲規則。
雖然這些遊戲規則有令人厭惡的一面，但在經驗上，這種操作大部份時間比起中國式的暗啞底溝通，更能保障市民利益。
中國要保住最流行標簽只有一途，就是提高產品質量監控，防止不友善傳媒和反中的保護主義者有發難的機會。

Last Sunday Lorraine and I taught a workshop at AFC Production Conference.
The workshop is called "Cultivating a prevailing worship team." It aimed at educating participants the importance and methods to minister to artists and musicians (worship team). There were about twenty participants from eight churches.
A worship team needs to be nurtured in the following areas:
1. character shaping
2. spiritual formation
3. theological understanding of worship
4. biblical literacy on prayers
5. relationship building
6. team building
7. professionalism
8. healthy rhythm
While the participants were impressed by the depth, breadth and importance of the subject, some were skeptical on whether all these could be accomplished in real life. For some it sounded like fantasy and to others it appeared unachievable because it seemed to require much resources.
Here is one written feedback we have received:
Can you add some success stories or struggles in cultivating a worship team? It's all too idealistic with all the high standards & expectations (E.g. professionalism), but I want to hear how it actually worked out in church life.
I sighed (at the skepticism) as I read the feedback.
If I had a chance to respond to the feedback, here are the three advices I would give:

「捐了33年血，捐血已經是我生活的一部分，我常提醒自己日常生活要保持健康。」高誌樫12歲時因意外失去右臂，並曾經接受大量輸血；縱使身體傷殘，他這33年來一直捐血救助其他有需要病人，昨日他便在新旺角捐血站第128次捐血。[...] 曾獲傑出殘疾人士獎的高誌樫說，多年來一直捐血，全因為一份使命感，捐血對自己健康也有幫助，「為了捐血，我會早睡早起，較注意飲食健康，而捐血也有助新陳代謝」。
我想捐血，但不能捐。你若可以捐血，不要放棄救人的機會。

It's only 10 days away from our annual Production Conference! While we are preparing for the various keynote sessions and workshops, may I remind you to send in your registration form as soon as possible! If you want to get your preferred workshop you better hurry!
Let me also point out that we do offer a special group rate. No matter how many people are there in your group, we charge only a flat rate of $20. So get as many people to come as you can from your fellowship, committee, worship team, band or church! Tips: people from the same group can all sign up different workshops so that you can share what you've learned afterwards!
People asks whether the content for this year's conference is the same as last year. Of course not! It will be completely different. The keynote messages and the workshops are all new materials. If you have come last year, you will definitely benefit also from this year's materials too.
We are very encouraged as we receive a registration form from San Francisco a few days ago. People are actually flying in to attend this event! SO hurry up and don't miss the chance to learn how to improve the quality of your church event!
This weekend is the best time to ask around during fellowship time and sign people up!
For more information you can go to this page or download the registration handbook here.

God used AFC Vancouver to change my life.
In what ways?
Oh, AFC reminded me to read the Bible, pray, worship GOD, go to Church, live as Jesus did..
y’know - regular Christian stuff. nothing new.
Except... AFC Vancouver was speaking my language.
i got to know them through pp959.
they put it in as a podcast that you can
subscribe via iTunes
later on they launched some blogs.
there were things that i used everyday
BlogSpot... iPod... and they were right there with me.
And the first time I went into their Room C
I was blown by their interior design
“This is a student center!?” I was picturing some sort of 1980s youth community center in HK.
instead it was cool and comfortable. (you actually want to spend time there.)
Similarly, their Coffee House nights had a professional atmosphere and just floored me and my friend.
then there are the Jubilization events:
yeah
there’s music
yeah
you can say it’s a Praise and Worship, rocking out some emotion
but for me it’s more
it's the disciple-making messages
it's the fact that the staff
looked us all in the eye
and according to the Bible
challenged us to be CHRISTIANS again
to be the SALT and LIGHT of the world again
to be contagious
to take up the cross
to hunger and pray and work for the revival of the church
EVEN if our hearts had been broken in the past
and it's not empty talk
the staff at AFC Vancouver are authentic. they're not hypocrites. they walk the talk.
they teach and worship in their churches
and they submit and trust in the Lord
today
when i look back at my time with AFC
i know that it was God's grace that led me here
it was God's grace that blessed these brothers and sisters
to have the creativity, passion, vision, and motivation to build followers of Christ
there's still a long road to walk
but today i just want to say
thank you to AFC
and thank you to God for bringing me back to you.

尋日我哋嘅節目主持阿Ca話俾我哋聽嘅...
話說佢同個朋友諗住出一分力，走去Canadian Blood Services捐血，亦都支持吓我哋使者嘅Partners For life行動啦，點知嗰度嘅負責人一見到佢哋，就話佢哋唔合資格捐血嘞！
其實阿Ca不嬲都唔係好合資格捐血㗎啦...大家見過佢都知道其實佢都好瘦㗎啦，咁我哋呢度如果要捐血嘅話，體重最少都要110磅㗎嘛，阿Ca就算著哂厚衫都唔夠啦。
但係以前去捐血，啲人都無咁嚴話一定唔得㗎喎！阿Ca都試過同我去捐血㗎啦...
原來而家因為血庫嘅需求大咗，所以每一次有人捐血，加拿大血液中心嘅朋友從donor身上都會抽出比以前更多嘅血。所以為咗捐血人士嘅身體著想，佢哋就要求捐血者有更好嘅身體...或者應該話係更重嘅身體。
而家如果要捐血，你最少都要有118磅㗎！！！！！
所以希望大家如果係符合資格嘅話，都可以去幫手捐吓血啦！
好多朋友都需要你哋嘅幫助㗎！
要知道更多有關捐血嘅資料，請到http://www.bloodservices.ca/瀏覽。
前陣子我去一間教會分享有關讀書的題目。在我介紹自己時，我說我該很有資格講這題目，因為我已經讀了三十年書：六年小學，七年中學，八年大學，九年神學，中間從未間斷，而且仍然在讀。大家都笑了。
有書讀，真好。
上星期日晚在主持《霹啪959》節目，訪問我們的嘉賓﹣來自Open Door Ministry的Kenneth時，一面聽他講他所遇到的年青人的故事時，心裡面其實真的有點痛。
我想，我們都不太明白，也沒有確切地對年青人的各種痛楚感同身受。在他們的嬉笑或憤怒背後，其實是許多的破碎。我們可能只看到他們的反叛行為，只懂批判他們的墮落，但又可有聽到他們沒有說出口的渴求？
如果年青人得不到愛，得不到關注，得不到保護，得不到鼓勵，那是我們作為上一代欠他們的。
努力的帶著痛去愛他們，努力的活一個充滿愛與精彩的生命去inspire下一代，努力經營自己美好的婚姻和家庭生活，就是我們能給他們最大的禮物。
互勉之。
終於有得睇喇！！

朗: yeah, thats why I am trying to write something that you havent said already
dk: just tell them AFC changed your life
朗: is it God who changed your life, or AFC?
dk: or perhaps its CCF; thats what you said last time
朗: then the question should be, would CCF be so CCF if there is no AFC?
dk: well... AFC does play a major role in CCF
朗: but what is AFC?
dk: AFC is just a name; its the people thats making a difference
朗: God
dk: God is presupposed
朗: so God changed you through AFC through CCF. now thats complicated
dk: life is complicated. but to put it simple for you fool, God used AFC to make disciples
