elthinks: July 2005
http://elthinks.blogspot.com/2005_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 19, 2005. Gotta love the Word. MacArthur, J., Jr. 1996, c1982. How to study the Bible. John MacArthur's Bible Studies. Moody Press: Chicago. Posted by Joel Chan at 7:42 PM. Thursday, July 07, 2005. I've been reading The Purpose Driven Life. The Father's will to be done, even on the night before His crucifixion. I couldn't help trying to imagine how it might have felt to know. What was coming, and yet still willingly surrendered to it, still was able to wholeheartedly say, "Yes" to the Father.

elthinks: January 2005
http://elthinks.blogspot.com/2005_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 31, 2005. Time is ticking away, tick, tick, ticking away. Sorry for not writing for so long. Writer's block is a terrible evil that afflicts me very often. Have yet to find an effective antidote for it. :p. Wishful thinking. Have I mentioned that those days, hours, minutes, and moments are ALL GONE? Makes me think of the poignant lyrics of Switchfoot:. Gone, like yesterday is gone. Like history is gone. The world keeps spinning on. You're going, going, gone. Like summer break is gone,.

elthinks: shameless?
http://elthinks.blogspot.com/2005/09/shameless.html
Wednesday, September 21, 2005. Oiipeople.it doesn't take that. Much to move some neurons and fingers and put some of your thoughts/opinions/etc. up here, does it? P maybe i'm asking too much. Seems like every time i explicitly request comments, they either trickle in, or just completely avoid the post. *shrugs and muses* wonder why. Big thanks to those of you who make this blog alive, though.you know who you are. ;-). Tsk, tsk.shameless, joel.you have to resort to THIS? Posted by Joel Chan at 9:24 PM.

Sunday, September 18, 2005. Hangs head in shame*. Yes, yes.it has been a very long time since I've blogged, and the reason for the silence is NOT a lack of happenings. I could avoid personal responsibility and blame the Writer's Block Demons, or blame my "busy" schedule, or blame the visitors to my room, or blame. I have found my church! The church is not unlike PCC, in terms of size, demographic, preaching style, and worship flavor. The congregation is a decent mix of young and old, with a large rep...

Friday, January 06, 2006. Look at my lovely hair! Posted by Joel Chan at 5:15 PM. Ok I've looked at your hair :). Hah Try to beat my record of having my fringe touch my chin. Unfortunately I broke my vow after three years and finally had an American haircut sometime in Jan of 05. Hisaaayy.it's only USD$20 right? Hehesuch vain-ness Joel.such VAIN-NESS! Although I think it looks fine, I could put a good word in for you with the FBC stylist? Or you could grow it out and get it permed! The journey - continued.

elthinks: The journey - continued.
http://elthinks.blogspot.com/2005/12/journey-continued.html
Thursday, December 22, 2005. The journey - continued. I'll bring you more than a song, for a song in itself is not what you have required. You search much deeper within through the way things appear; you're looking into my heart." (Matt Redman The Heart of Worship ). I have found myself. Thus, I have found myself - exposed in my dire need for self-control. I need to plug into the Source of discipline. My spirit yearns for that self-control, but my body cannot find the means to attain it. We men (humans) ...

elthinks: April 2005
http://elthinks.blogspot.com/2005_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 12, 2005. Wrote this out of experience. This is one of my first attempts at poetry. Do let me know what you think, about the style, meter, rhyming, theme, readability, do you agree with the contents, etc.). Shivering, he crawls. Trembling, groveling, groping, weeping. Down on his knees, face to the ground. Grasping, groping, out stretched arms. Pleading, racked with cruel addiction. He crawls, prostrate before his idol. The once proud soldier, bright eyed. Warrior of the Most High. A flash...

elthinks: November 2004
http://elthinks.blogspot.com/2004_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 30, 2004. The joys and sorrows of speaking, etc. I offended a girl today. I made an inadvertent insensitive remark about her appearance. It was about her hair. Bad mistake. Never make negative comments in public about a girl's appearance. She will not appreciate it. Trust me. We guys treat it as "constructive criticism", but they don't. Posted by Joel Chan at 6:58 AM. Monday, November 29, 2004. First, the matter of its timing. It is an unspoken and unwritten rule that arriving on ti...
