2 NEW Additions on the Tribe Blog

Great things are happening! If you have been a faithful follower of our tribe blog, you would have seen how we grew from just a simple blog created to encourage each other by our learnings and reflections into a treasure chest of resource for the modern day Christian committed to knowing God for himself/ herself. Of course, not forgetting too that this still remains as an online portal for us in the tribe to connect with each other (especially those overseas) and to sharpen each other through our reflections of what God has done in our lives.

It is with great joy that I announce two new additions for the blog. Firstly, as you would have noticed with the post on "The Shack", is the start of a collection of book reviews that I hope would encourage you to read on your own. Christian literature is never a subsitute for the Bible itself, but God has also gifted many of these authors with unique insights into His word and for some others, gave them moving experiences of great faith that inspire. Authors like J.I. Packer, Edmund Chan, R.T. Kendall, John Bevere and Martin Loyd Jones have dramatically changed the way I see and know God through their books and I know you will be blessed too. Along the way, we will try to group these books by theme and level of "cheemness" so that anyone from a new believer to a mature Chrisitan will have a selection of recommended books to choose from.

The second addition, is a new series of blog postings on the heroes of the Bible. The likes of Joseph, Moses, Daniel and Abraham have lived lives that are anything short of extraordinary. What can we learn from them and how can we live life differently in Christ so that we can fulfill the destiny God has intended for us? Through each character study, we hope to inspire you towards your own journey of faith, passion and compassion in Christ.

So there you have it! 2 great things to look forward to on the tribe blog! May you be blessed and encouraged!
