15th MCCC #9 Challenge 2 – The Challenges Facing the Church in Malaysia #dumcMY #fb #MCCC
Pastor Daniel Ho, 12/06/2011
It's exciting to live in Malaysia. When we are caught in a traffic jam, God could be telling us to slow down and to pray.
Many times we don't speak well of Malaysia. We need to be reminded that Malaysia is a great country.
Malaysians are people with short memories and we need to be reminded about what is good and wonderful about Malaysia.

15rh MCCC #8 Challenge I - Transformation of Society #dumcMy #MCCC #fb
Pastor Dr Philip Lyn, 11/06/2011
Luk 19:10 for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost. (NKJV)
Zacchaeus was short. He also was seen as a traitor because he collected taxes for the Romans, thereby filling up their coffers. He had to climb a tree to see Jesus not just because he was short but because he was despised and he wasn’t allowed to see Jesus. Jesus saw him and told him he would go to have dinner at his place. Zacchaeus repented and promised to return 4 times what he gained by cheating. Jesus said salvation came and that He came to seek and save that which was lost.

15th MCCC #7 Developing Younger Leaders #dumcMY #fb #MCCC
Pastor Daniel Ho, Pastor Chew Weng Chee, Pastor Philip Lyn, 11/06/2011
From Pastor Daniel Ho.
One bishop visited his diocese. He decided to stay in the house of a church member instead of the hotel. The church member was overjoyed. The wife and the children were also happy. In UK, a bishop is addressed as ‘My Lord.” They decided to offer him breakfast in bed. The mother wanted to give an opportunity for the son to serve the bishop in the morning. He was trained to say “My Lord, Sir. Your boy here, breakfast is served.”

It grew from 60 to approximately 650 in 10 years. There are 5 elders (policy), 3 executive pastors (operations), associate pastors (regional / national ministry.) The associate pastors were former senior pastors. They and their families are integrated in the church.
A. The Background to Skyline
Skyline is located in the beautiful in Kota Kinabalu in 2001. The mother church, SIB LIkas wanted to plant a church in the city. They located a resort hotel called Sutera Harbour. But the rental is too expensive even with a 50% discount. The hotel later contacted them and offered a small room.It grew from 60 to approximately 650 in 10 years.

Challenges Facing the Church in Malaysia
Pastor Dr. Daniel Ho, 13/06/2010
Pastor Daniel has many challenges. One of them is acrophobia (fear of heights.) This is the same with Matthew, his son. When they were in a theme park, they challenged this fear by taking different rides. Now, he is ready to face his fear of height.
We must overcome challenges we face in life. There is no better time to live in Malaysian than right now. Challenging times are the most exciting times. We see the obstacles and overcome them.
There are five challenges we face as a church in Malaysia.

Transformation of Society – The Guatemala Story
Dr. Jorge Lopez, 11/06/2010
What are the characteristics of a great church?
A Guatemalan Baptist pastor died and went to heaven. Peter told him he has to know the Bible if he wanted to go in. Peter asked him how many testaments are there. The pastor answered two and got in. Another pastor came in. He was asked how many gospels are they. He answered 4 and went in. A Catholic priest came and he was asked whether he knew about the feeding of the 5000. He said yes. He was asked to name them.
Sometimes we don’t want to help people.

Developing Young Leaders (Multi-generational Strategy)
Dr. Jorge Lopez, 11/06/2010
We often talk about being called but we seldom talk about being sent.
Joh 20:21 Jesus said to them again, "Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, even so I am sending you."
This message seems to be very relevant to me.

Evangelism – Malaysian Style (SIBKL)
Pastor Dr. Chew Wing Chee, 12/06/2010
“I used to do delivery now I do deliverance.”
SIB stands for Sidang Injil Borneo, i.e. the Borneo Evangelical Church. It originated from East Malaysia.
There are 88 churches in attendance today. Some are from smaller churches. But it’s not about numbers. We don’t focus on the numbers. Catch the spirit. Growth will come. Rick Warren was told by his father on his dead bed to “go and save one more.”

Evangelism – Malaysian Style (DUMC)
Pastor Dr. Daniel Ho, 12/06/2010
The cell church structure is the best structure for the local church to grow. However, the structure is only to assist us to grow. The people brings life to the church.
We must have faith that whenever we share something will happen.

Developing and Nurturing Leaders
Dr. Jorge Lopez, 11/06/2010 1146
Graham Greene wrote in the Power and the Glory that “There is always one moment in childhood when the door opens and lets the future in.”
Ulrich Beck and Anthony Giddens stress the pervasiveness of individual security in a world where the pillars of modernity are crumbling, creating a new dynamic of transnational cooperation mobilized around shared perceptions of “manufactured” risk.
What do we learn from Jesus’ style of leadership?

The Essential and Non-negotiable Ingredients
Dr. Jorge Lopez, 11/06/2010 0925
Constant prayer is another important thing, individually and corporately. When we pray, we let God know what we need. God of course can read our thoughts and our feelings. There is something powerful when we pray. Miracles take place when we pray. There is power in asking. God will supply all our needs. God hears us. Pray while driving, when we are waiting for a dentist appointment, pray constantly. People ask Dr. Jorge what is the one thing that makes his church growth. He answered the one thing is God. We can be very professional. But the Holy Spirit makes it grow.

The Relational Life of the Church
Cell Group with a Difference
Pastor Chris Kam, 10/06/2010 1145
Three Dynamic Keys to a Successful Cells
Ministry without people is fun – that’s an oxymoron.
What is the biggest challenge in people ministry? Why do people come to your church / cell group?
Why do people do things?
Duress, Compulsion, Coercion (Involuntarily) Duty, Obligation, Expectation, Desire, Fulfillment (Voluntarily.)
In a cell group, do they come because they have desire of find fulfillment or is it because of obligation?

The Story and Strategy of the Cell Church for Fraternidad Cristiana
Dr. Jorge Lopez, Senior Pastor of Fraternidad Cristiana de Guatemala, 10/06/2010 0944
Dr. Jorge showed a video of how God moves in Guatemala through the Fraternidad Cristiana de Guatemala (the Guatemala Christian Fellowship church). How wonderful it is to have brothers come together to pray and worship! How wonderful if the head of the state is among them!
The will of God is for us to grow. Where there is life, there is growth.
