Trip to Ningbo

Selected the picture above to represent Ningbo: opposite a church there are four rows of pubs/bars.

Trip to Ningbo (11-14/07/2016)

- Truth vs feelings/emotions

- Old tradition restaurants/stalls (cheap, nutritious) vs new established wholistic experience shops (expensive, good to five senses). I took McD for dinner for one night and it feels so good with bubble tea.

- Price does not seem to carry any weight in comparison with experience. Spend first and think about the financial consequences later.

- Books and movies of historical/cultural/literature subjects vs love stories/comic & pop music

- Feel good experience is influencing young people in direct and subliminal ways where people embrace a consumer attitude to choose a 'feel good' church and even to talk about which sessions of the service they feel good about. (A young people from my church is joining church camps more than church service)

- In a relationship with a non-Christian girlfriend, I have heard people saying that maybe this is the arrangement of God for me to bring her to Christ.

- How to help people swing from feeling to living out truth in everyday life?

- From the scenery above, I recall fond memories of reflection time in the UK which was beside river with bridge and park

- Good time to reflect about work (future will be like my bosses), finish reading Dug Down Deep (by Joshua Harris), and also thinking about my dream & "dream centre"
