Chats with Brother Loh

Tuesday, 17th March 2026

Back in the 1990s, Dr Aw Swee Eng wrote a book called "Chats with Uncle Loh" and gave several copies to my dad.

While de-cluttering the Study, I came across those copies, and have kept one for posterity.

Fast forward to the 21st century and God has brought a dear brother into my life, Douglas Loh.  I got to know him way before he was appointed a Deacon, and we meet up regularly for lunch to fellowship and chat.  

He introduced me to King of Fried Rice, Uptown Nasi Lemak and Sando, amongst others. 

In return, I have introduced him to Prof Brawn Cafe, Boh Geh Uncle Canteen and Little Pond.

Because of the great kingdom friendship that we have, God has frequently used Dn Doug as a channel to give me His rhema word.  For example, I only knew about the existence and use of washpots because Dn Doug shared that with me back in 2018 when I encountered friction with my then-ministry team leader CY.  You can read that blog entry here

Thank God for Washpots

Well, God again used Dn Doug to bring me His rhema word (or rather a series of 9 Instagram images) when I shared about what happened recently in my "perfect" CG.  I reproduce these 9 images below to encourage everyone to be part of a CG, not be discouraged by setbacks, but continue to look to Jesus as the author and finisher of our faith.

I truly am blessed by my chats with Brother Loh.  May God continue to bless His ministry as a Deacon overseeing the Sunday Experience at the Star!
