WORDilicious Investigators



Agatha Christie, Sherlock Holmes, Magnum P.I. They are a club of their own. Private investigators who never fail to surprise you with a twist to their investigations. These days in Malaysia, the numbers of private investigators are increasing. They investigate threats, investigate frauds, but mostly they investigate desperate wives' fears of their husbands having affairs. It's a thriving trade.

Happily we have started our own Wordilicious Investigators! Launched officially as an enterprise in 2006, this is our second year running. But we are old hands at this, many have done the same over the years under different names ~ and it is WORD-delicious! Hungry anyone?

B.U.R.P.
After meals, burps are in order. Many of my friends and you included often give a satisfied burp after a hearty meal. I hope to hear you burping after a WORDilicious one. That's what W.I. is about, men and women who 'eat' God's Word, letting it digest into their system, transforming into a loud B.U.R.P. Building Up Radical People! :)

WHO INVESTIGATES WHO?
Often, those who study their Bibles, "Wordilicious Investigators" think they are called to investigate the Word, dissect what it says and put it together again in a way that makes sense. I beg to differ! I believe we are called to allow the Word to INVESTIGATE us. It questions our living, our conscience, our mission, our values and our compassion. The Word investigates our lives and calls us to allow our lives to be answer to its questions.

EAT HIS BOOK
Hurry! Hurry! Your time in campus is running out. If not now, then when? When will you sign up to be a Wordilicious Investigator (W.I.)? Investigate the Word, or rather let it investigate you. Come together under the Word as WIs. Discover that Acts, Haggai, Zechariah, Revelations and the rest of the 66 books are waiting to investigate your life. Eat His book and live. You may look foolish going against the way society is going, but you will sure be a radical disciple.

What do you say? What is your story about B.U.R.P.; about Who Investigates Who; about Eat His Book? Chip in your say, tell us the cost, challenge our simple view or decry the Word as a boring, unalive book. Investigate and be investigated!
