In 2018, the government made some amendments to the Maintenance of Religious Harmony Act (MRHA), a Singapore statute which was enacted by the Parliament on 9 Nov 1990. What are these amendments and how will they impact the ministry and mission of the churches in Singapore? What is the relationship between religion and politics in Singapore as set out by the MRHA? Does the separation of religion and politics imply that the Church has no role in public debates and that religious leaders have no right to comment on societal issues?

EQUIP COURSE: FAITH AND WORK–WORKPLACE THEOLOGY 23, 30 Mar / 6, 13, 20, 27 Apr / 4 May 2021 (Tuesdays), 7.30 p.m. to 9.30 p.m. Via ZOOM Please register online via TTC website at www.ttc.edu.sg $100 (Fee waived for TTC Alumni)

We spend the most healthy and energetic part of our lives working. Yet we seldom reflect on the significance of faith in our work. What does the Bible have to say about work? How can we affirm that the whole people of God are serving in “full time” ministry Monday to Friday, and often Saturday as well? Starting with the definition of work as “purposeful activity, whether manual or mental or both, whether remunerated or not” we will explore both the biblical basis of a theology of work and then wrestle with the contextual implications. Having a theology of work is critical both for those people engaged in a societal occupation and also for pastors, whose primary challenge of equipping the saints includes empowering people for the primary arena of their service to God in the world.
