Theme: Building Strong Families
Speakers: Mr Jason Wong
Synopsis of Dialogue It is becoming increasingly challenging to build strong families with strong Biblical values in this age of rapid urbanisation and with the rapid secularisation of society. With the proliferation of the Internet, the Church has become but one source of values among a plethora of other sources of value systems that may be accessed online, particularly in an age of various invasive forms of social media. In the home, there also appears to be higher occurrences of families and marriages breking down. In the face of a demanding and competitive economy, increading numbers of people are living apart from their families due to frequent travel or the need to work longer hours. These add to the stress on marriages and family life. How can we build stronger families in the midst of these challenges?
