		<description><![CDATA[For a while I was puzzled to whether or not being a discipler is a gift or a mandate. A discipler is someone who makes disciple. He is someone who does discipleship. Someone who teaches, someone who trains, someone who disciplines a disciple.

Before we dig deeper on this matter, we can see here that both God and disciplers are involve in the process of disciple making. It’s not just about becoming a teacher to another person, but it is all about having relationship with God.

		<description><![CDATA[The issue of true love waits is a valid issue concerning of love. The big question however is, "How to wait?"

With the current shift of culture and moral standards of the world, I believe true love waits is an "on-time" seminar for our younger generation.

I do not believe to what the government is doing as their solution for the rising cases of HIV. I believe that it is still the revival of moral values is still the best solution for this, hence, religious groups can do indeed play a great role in this issue. 

The article below was taken from the True Love Waits Manual published by Church Strengthening Ministry years ago. Thus, I find this article direct to the point and helpful to our younger generation.

		<description><![CDATA[Currently, me and my wife is attending a bi-monthly seminar on “Fireproofing Your Marriage”. So far, we are really enjoying discussing things about marital relationship within the couple's group of our Church. Each partner in the group is also trying to work on our daily task, “The Love Dare”.

Today's reading is a very useful tool in resolving marital conflicts. I believe each couple should try to take note of this post since this has been a great treasure in most successful marriages. And I do agree to what the author says about marital conflicts and problems. I quote this post from “The Love Dare” book by Kendrick.

The post is all about the boundaries in dealing with conflicts. Before I forget, I suggest that you print this post or at least bookmark this page so that you will be able to go back here if in case you will be needing this post in the future.

		<description><![CDATA[Alcohol Drinking Is Not Good For Our Lives

This is one of the most common heated debates inside Christian communities. This is because there are many Christians who still drink alcoholic beverages even after several years of being a Christian.
The main issues raised were the following:

    * Is alcohol drinking forbidden in the Bible?
    * Is alcohol drinking an immoral practice?
    * Is alcohol drinking encouraged in the Bible?
    * Moderate drinking is a healthy practice as long as you do not get drunk.

Many of those Christians who used to drink uses the following issues above to defend that alcohol drinking is completely allowable and it is only “us” who forbid it to do. Plus quoting the incident in the wedding of Cana where Jesus turned water into wine.

But why is it that many Evangelical Churches forbid or at least impose a “no alcohol drinking” policy among its members?

Now, let's go to the main discussion of the issues raised.
Is Alcohol Drinking Forbidden In The Bible?

The answer of course is no. The fact is, most people in the Bible drink at least a wine coming from grapes. One thing is clear about the limitations in drinking, and it is found in Ephesians 5:18. “Do not get drunk.” This is why most Christians that still drink alcoholic beverages hold this very strongly. As long as they don't get drunk.
