Hello.
This FOC blog has been collecting some dust recently. Here to clean up with an entry by the ke ai de tingting!! Everybody say, ‘YEAH!!!’ (NOT eeeeeeeeeeee!) haha x) Anyway, I just returned from a team manager’s briefing for a captain’s ball competition. In case some of you don’t know what I’m talking about… some youths are joining a captain’s ball competition called Teengames, organized by Singapore Youth for Christ. It will be held on the 4th (wed) and 6th (fri) of June from 1pm to 6pm at Tampines Sports Hall. Do come and support us!!!
Singapore Youth for Christ also organized other games like pool, soccer, rock climbing, badminton, basketball etc. The main aim of organizing these games is to allow Christians to have a platform to evangelize. The program includes a very short praise and worship, icebreaker, sharing by pastor, sharing among ourselves and of course the captain’s ball game.
I have to admit that my initial idea of joining this cap’s ball was to go win some games and if lucky enough win top 3 or something like that =) and since we’re not having captain’s ball competition this year, why not join this? Yeap, weeks later, I realized that, hey! I should ask people to invite their friends to join us and play so that we can leverage on the event and spread the gospel. Yeap, so NOW, my objective (I hope is yours too) of joining this event is to build a relationship with the pre-believers and then have follow-up actions after that.
We are having 2 teams, one male and one female team (it is not the normal mix team that we play in CAC). For the male team, we’re having 1 new friend he’s called Koon Heng (Yuchuan’s cousin). And for female team, we’re having 2 new friends, Cheng Yi and Hui Xian (both are Agnes’ JC friends). Thank God that we have new friends to start with =) if not, who are we to spread the gospel to? =) But how do you spread the gospel to them when you don’t know them??
During the briefing today, someone shared this, Christians read the bible and people read the Christians. How true. So I urge all of us to play captain’s ball like CHRISTIANS or should I say Force of Christ! And for the supporters, support like how a Force of Christ should support =) To me, a Force of Christ should also clap for the opponents when they score, don’t curse and swear at the referees when they didn’t blow correctly, be nice and make friends with the opponents etc etc but most importantly, put God above us. Don’t let our emotions control us. Show our new friends and the other churches and those churches’ new friends how a REAL Christian should be like =) Like them see God’s image in us =) that’s a way to spread the gospel indirectly =) though it is indirect, it is VERY POWERFUL as they will be able to see the difference between believers and non-believers.
Take this chance to interact with the new friends, and be a Force of Christ for ALL to see. X)
P.S. Pray for everyone’s heart and actions to be a FOC and for the hearts for the new friends, pray that they won’t have negative feelings about the sharing and that they’ll accept Christ!!
Amen!
