Daniel Yeo graduated from EAST with a Bachelor of Arts in Christian Ministry and started serving with HealthServe in 2016. It is “a volunteer run organisation that seeks to bring healing and hope to vulnerable low wage migrant workers in Singapore.” This was after his EAST internship with them as a student then. Recently, he has been featured in a Straits Times article where he rendered help to Mr Muthupandi who had undergone several major operations during workplace injuries. EAST took the opportunity to interview Daniel regarding his passion in serving the migrant workers.
EAST Creation Seminar 2024
EAST held a Creation seminar recently featuring a panel of speakers on the topic of Young-Earth creationism and Old-Earth creationism. These speakers and respondents presented and critiqued the two views of Young-Earth and Old-Earth. Theologians and scientists from both persuasions presented biblical-theological and scientific arguments for their views. Respondent to each view also presented their critique of the proponent’s presentation. Speakers also shared how one’s view of creation might affect the gospel ministry to both Christians and non-Christians. Read more
EAST Podcast: Creation Part 2 – Old Earth View
In Isaiah 40:25-26, we read:
“To whom then will you compare me,
That I should be like him?” Says the Holy One.
“Lift up your eyes on high and see:
Who created these?
He who brings out their host by number,
Calling them all by name;
By the greatness of his might,
And because he is strong in power,
Not one is missing.”
In this passage, God himself affirms that he created all things. Indeed, throughout Scripture we see that God’s creation testifies to his glory and might. The fact that he created the universe out of nothing is a core tenet of Christianity. And yet, different believers have conflicting views on exactly when and how God created the universe.
Resurrection Sunday
Jesus said, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die.” John 11:25,26 (ESV)
We serve a risen Saviour! He’s in the world today! Praise God! He died for us, may we henceforth live for Him! Hallelujah!
