Book Launch by Senior Pastor Daniel Foo
“Running with Horses is not a book for the faint-hearted. It is not for those
who accept mediocrity as a standard of Christian living. Instead, it is written
for those who desire to be strong, able to run and triumph through their
Christian faith as empowered by the Lord."
Ong Guek Ju
Principal, Tung Ling Bible School
On Anniversary Sunday (2nd November 2014), we are pleased and proud to launch a book
written by our very own Senior Pastor, Daniel Foo. Entitled “Running with Horses: A Road
Map to Victorious Living”, the book provides keys and handles from Scripture, and lessons
from decades of ministry on how we can protect, strengthen and enlarge our capacities
to grow in our walk and service with God. Using the prophet Elisha's journey with Elijah,
he brings the believer through four significant milestones to present a personal road map
towards victorious living, showing how we can be empowered to impact and influence lives
for His glory.
The book will be sold at a special rate of S$11 for BBTCians ONLY on Anniversary
Sunday (Today) and the following Sunday (9th November 2014). There is
also a special rate of S$50 for 5 copies of the books.
Educators Lunch with Senior Pastor
If your gift is serving others, serve them well. If you are
a teacher, teach well. Romans 12:7 (NLT)
To all Principals, Teachers, Teacher-Trainees,
Professors, and Lecturers within BBTC:
Being an Educator is an honourable calling to impact and influence lives through the moulding
of minds. Senior Pastor would like to affirm you for embracing this calling and would like to
fellowship with you through a special lunch session. There will also be a sharing by educators
on being Christian teachers.
