Classes with Pastor Kong is always so inspiring.

Pastor finished up the Cultural Mandate Series today and he opened up the time for some Question & Answer.

Several interesting questions were asked and I remember very vividly a question asked by a female student, with regards to stepping out in faith into the entertainment world.

Pastor's reply to her question really inspired me a lot.

"We chose to walk in faith." - Ps Kong

Pastor was sharing with us the experience he and Sun had to go through and the decision he had to make. They could have cruised through life when church was 10,000 in strength. But Pastor felt that this isn't what he wants to be.

So Sun crossed over into the entertainment scene and Pastor became a voluntary, to go off salary.

To me, that's really walking in faith. Making the decision to go "salary-free" and Sun crossing over is definitely something that requires tons of faith! It's really something that most people wouldn't even think of!

As Pastor was sharing his experiences, it just made me feel that Pastor such a normal person. Someone that struggles with weaknesses as well. But the difference is not because he's the Senior Pastor of a mega-church.

But he's a man after God's heart.

He's willing to lay aside all the comfort, riches and glory to pursue God's kingdom. It really takes a lot of security and faith to make the decisions he has made.

I feel really blessed to have Pastor Kong as my Senior Pastor!

All things are possible with Jesus!
