上週，為前方道路禱告時出現了三個大方向:醫生，宣教，全人關懷。不過上星期六上班特別忙碌，星期一突然出現了一個念頭: 辭職，神學課業改成全職，盡快結業，然後離開澳洲到神呼召的地方! 我不知道這個念頭的源頭是好是壞。

什麼是宣教/宣教士?

台灣最可愛的宣教師，Doris Brougham 彭蒙惠
History seems to be playing live before my eyes right as I am studying it! When I was doing the topic of the poor suffering Job, planes were falling out of the sky and ISIS’s violent siege of many regions in Iraq were making international headlines.
最近總覺得讀歷史時，歷史就不斷的活生生地在自己眼前演出! 當我讀到苦難多多的約伯，就摔了好幾架飛機，然後中東恐怖份子以恐怖的方式佔據伊拉克!

Women preaching in the Salvation Army
For nearly 1800 years Christians interpreted texts such as 1Timothy 2:11–14 to confirm women’s inferior nature and proneness to sin, thus concluding women were not suited for leadership positions or public ministry[1]. So when a devout and eloquent female evangelist Phoebe Palmer became popular in 1859, a nearby minister Reverend Arthur Rees[2] was so incensed that he wrote a pamphlet denouncing a woman as a preacher of the gospel[3]. This attack outraged Catherine Booth, co-founder of the Salvation Army, into writing a thirty-two page rebuttal, ‘Female Teaching’[4], systemically defending the equality of women in ministry. This essay will first examine the arguments Catherine presented in 'Female Teaching' in its defence, then analyse what role this understanding played in Salvation Army practice regarding the ministry of women.

教會與社會: 劉三講古
劉三牧師講到，花很多時間親近神不等於「屬靈」~ 親近神，絕對是好事，但是要察驗心裡的動機，畢竟，上帝是鑒察內心的。
我同意:真的要小心不要把[表現導向]帶入教會，因為我看過很多第二代基督徒被[表現導向]的第一代基督徒害慘。更不要因為在職場不被看重就把教會當作表現的舞台。

360o全方位領導(約翰.麥斯威爾/著):中階領袖領導法則
中階領袖向上領導法則:
Maxwell (2005) 認為向上領導是360度全方位領導者的最大挑戰，因為多數的領袖想要領導別人，卻不願意被領導；但若採取的方式是可以增加上位領導者的價值時，此時就擁有影響他的最佳機會。法則如下:

華人的思想架構是在生產「人才」還是「奴才」?
劉三牧師最近寫了一篇文章，我覺得很有意思。華人的文化教育是在培養「人才」還是「奴才」？這個問題很重要! 因為未來就在下一代手中! 管他什麼黨派，如果人不對，整個社會就不對!

Wise people are builders (Bill Johnson)
Wise people are builders (Bill Johnson)
The gospel is practical. When people can be born again, they start implementing practical ways of living God's principles, how to do life, representing God well. Godly leaders are different from ungodly leaders as the focus is different. Impact of Godly leadership: people around me live better when I am in this leadership position. Other people become great. Jesus' impact on the disciples: unusual gathering of insignificant people, no famous people in the group, lived in insignificant places, but once they spent time with Jesus, they begin to see themselves differently, and Jesus celebrated their victories but reminded them what is the most important. They started arguing who's the greatest because of all the miracles performed through their hands. Jesus didn't correct their desire for greatness but just redefined and changed their concept of significance. Greatness is not arguing who rules over who. We are all born to be great. Jesus showed the disciples a child. False humility sees one's own insignificance, self-criticism, devalue ourselves. Genuine humility sees the greatness of God, and be willing to take risks for God. We all have the power to change the course of history of society and impact on culture.
