Leviticus, 1 Peter, Ruth, Esther 29-30 Nov 2024
Word Works is back! Gospel Growth Fellowship invites you to join us as we read, study and learn from the Bible at 2024’s Word Works on either Leviticus, 1 Peter, Ruth, or Esther!
Word Works is a 2-day Bible workshop, run by seminary-trained teachers, and designed to help Christians learn how to read the Bible better. We encourage you to continue making the effort to be equipped to read the Bible faithfully, in order to minister to the saints and grow God’s people (Eph 4:11-12).
The aim is to equip participants with Bible-reading skills – such as the basic framework of structure, themes, context, flow, major arguments, critical issues, and theological application – so that, with time and further study, participants may return to their churches ready to interpret and apply the Bible faithfully for the building up of all God's people.
We hope to see you there.
Pr. Jerome Leng
As a young man, Jerome Leng started his university days at the International Medical University (IMU) with ambitious dreams of becoming a doctor to help those in need. However, when he discovered what the gospel demanded of his life, his life changed forever. He gave up his pursuit of becoming a doctor and decided to pursue full-time paid ministry.
Jerome took on a Ministry Training Strategy program and then went on to seminary. He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts and Masters of Divinity in Biblical and Theological Studies from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, USA. He was also the recipient of the seminary’s prestigious Clyde T. Francisco Preaching Award in 2018.
He returned to Malaysia in December 2019 to be a minister of God in his homeland and is now a Pastor-in-Training as well as the youth pastor of a local church. Jerome is happily married to Robyn and they have a son, Emmett.
Pr. Vanessa Ong
- Pastor for Women, Children, Youth, and Tertiary students
- Bachelor of Divinity (Moore Theological College)
- Bachelor of Arts (Psychology) (Sunway University)
Vanessa loves immersing herself in God's word and asking Him questions as she studies His thoughts. She knows first-hand how good it is to learn where her mind, life, and ministry need to be urgently changed by God's perspective.
Her ministry experience began when she excitedly stumbled her way through the gospel presentation "Two Ways to Live" as a student leader in 2007 when she led her own little chapel class. She is grateful for willing brothers and sisters whom she has had a chance to "practice on" as an enthusiastic but very new Christian, and to our Lord Jesus who graciously brought her into His fold.
Mr. Daniel Lu
- Pastor-in-training for Chinese Ministry, Tertiary Students and Adults
- Bachelor of Theology (Trinity Theological College)
Having been convicted by the gospel, Daniel gave up all prospects of a medical career to pursue full-time paid ministry, and was a church minister's apprentice from 2011-2015. Since then, Daniel has been actively involved in many local parachurch ministries and has had more than 10 years of experience leading students in university ministry and training them to read the bible faithfully. He graduated from Trinity Theological College, Perth with a Bachelor of Theology, and is now applying his knowledge in discipling and teaching his local church.
