For we speak as messengers who have been approved by God to be entrusted with the Good News. Our purpose is to please God, not people. He is the one who examines the motives of our hearts. (1 Thes. 2:4 NLT)
The purpose of the mission : to please God, not men.

NOTE: The new “Free Gmail Invites” page is found here.
I’m going to give out my spare GMail invite. Here’s the deal: the first one to read this page and post a message with 1 or 2 sentences of your reactions to the article gets the invite. If after the first poster, you still want to read and post your reactions, please do. I may be getting more invites and will give it out on a first post, first out basis.
Take note that I’m not hard-selling my faith. I’m not selling a religion. I just would like you to read it, that’s all.
To all the fathers: Sa araw na ito, walang laba, luto, plantsa o linis ng bahay. Ipaglaban nyo ang karapatan nyo! Day off tayo! Happy father’s day. :-) (To all the fathers: today, no washing and no ironing of clothes. No cleaning the house. Fight for your rights! It’s our day off! Happy father’s day.)
The Passion of The Christ — who does not know about this Mel Gibson movie nowadays? It is coming here in the Philippines — a predominantly Christian, I’d say, nominal Christian nation — on March 31.
Evangelical churches will be using this movie as a bridge event — an evangelistic tool to be exact. They are blocking theater schedules for their use. I heard about Alabang New Life Christian Center’s blocking of the entire opening day showing of Alabang Town Center cinemas. Now that’s huge!
Yesterday, our core group approved our own showing of the Passion to an exclusive theater in the heart of Makati. We’ll be selling 440 tickets for this event. Now that seemed a great challenge. Hopefully, we’ll be able to invite so much — our family members, relatives and friends — to this event.
Feb. 25 marks the 18th celebration of People Power I, most people consider as the “real” People Power. I was 12 years old then. But for those who are in their earlier 20s, I’m sure are not aware of the drama that took place 18 years ago. This “EDSA 1 Timeline” — ala “24″, the Fox TV Series — is for you.
