StrengthsQuest Coaching (14 Sept 2013)

 

 

Conducted the inaugural session of StrengthsQuest Coaching for teenagers aged 15-19 years old. The purpose of this workshop is to help teenagers make discerning career and life decisions by first understanding their God-given talents. We made it compulsory for at least one the parents to come - in this way, the strengths-coaching relationship is continued on even after the workshop is over. We had fun! What made it especially meaningful was when we saw the authentic, heart-felt conversations that took place between parent and teenager. Priceless!

Homeschooling "INDOCTRINATION" Talk (14 July 2013)

 My wife and I facilitated the viewing of "INDOCTRINATION" - a hard-hitting documentary movie on the state of public education for a group of young parents. There is really no such thing as neutrality in education and the schools have an easier time nowadays to influence the young ones because we parents are too busy with the world rather than shaping their worldview. How can the next generation rise up to be mighty in Spirit if this generation of parents sit down idly and surrender our children to the pagan education system?

Character-Wise Parenting @All Nations Church (14 April)

 As part of All Nations Church (ANC) outreach to the community in Ara Damansara, I was invited to conduct a one-day Character-Wise Parenting workshop yesterday. We had a wonderful time as we unravel the leadership role of parents in addressing the "generation gap". This "gap" exists because we parents are not courageous enough to stand up for Biblical values and go counter-culture by taking personal responsibility for our child's character rather than "outsourcing" it other care-providers.
