Today I listened to a message by Dr. R.C. Sproul. For some time I have thought of writing an article on the health issues and psychological problems of homosexuality. I was quite surprised with US legalising of same sex marriage this year. And then I wondered on how Christians in the US responded. This message had the following points which I found enlightening ·
I gave an opening message at Cru medical welcome tea for medical & nursing freshman at Yong Loo Lin school of medicine. Freshman who were interested in a christian medical ministry were invited.

Being ADL independant Another of my colleague gave a presentation of 3 medical cases from Nepal and India. The talk was done in my clinic to doctors and nurses.

Singapore had a week of morning which ended with a state funeral on 29 March.

I have put together a collection of Mr Lee personal ideas of staying healthy, aging, caring for his sick wife, and thoughts of dying. And a eulogy by his daughter Dr Lee Wei Ling who described her father's last days.
Thank you Mr Lee Remembering Mr Lee Kuan Yew 17/2/2015 DemonsDemons
Ephesians 6;12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. There is a lot of misconceptions on what goes on in the spirit world and how it affects our lives, even our health and the way we think. Many of our ideas on demons are strung together by bits of bible, Hollywood myths. Biblical sound doctrines on demons are few and discussions by medical experts on demon possession are rarer. Demons is a feature section where I try to piece facts on a difficult topic to help medical practitioners understand the spiritual world 29/12/2014 Osteoarthritis & OsteoperosisOn 5 Dec 2014, I gave a health talk on osteoarthritis and osteoporosis to the adult fellowship in my church.
