From Galilee to Seminary Gate — thought leadership in media

This selected, linked chronology reads the Church–Seminary ecosystem’s public communication alongside its workspace research. Connections describe themes, not proof that one item caused another, that a proposal was adopted, or that a publication achieved its intended impact. A Seminary Gate account byline is not automatically a personal byline for Gerard Seow.

2025 planning — a shared story and a school. The attached Singapore & GBG: A Galilee of Nations timeline places church-history research, interviews, articles and videos alongside seminary curriculum and stakeholder work. Its sample “Generations”, “Memories” and “Gratitude” videos were proposed for October 2025; the plan does not establish that they were made or released. See also ‣ and ‣ for the proposed public-theology and publishing direction.

November 13, 2025 — Singapore Gateway to the Nations, published by Seminary Gate, frames Singapore as a Galilee among nations and names Rev Gerard Seow in relation to exploring S. Rajaratnam’s intellectual journey. The oral-history register below provides a related research lead; its later workspace creation date is not a discovery date.
January 22, 2026 — Story God is telling in Geylang, published by Seminary Gate, places local church and street-ministry memory alongside a wider formation and sending vision. Compare the workspace’s Story God is telling in Geylang; this is the ministry’s theological account, not evidence of spiritual causation.
February 13, 2026 — Cleared for Takeoff: The Ordination That Changes Everything, attributed to Rev Gerard Seow on Facebook, develops a ministry-of-all-believers and non-Levitical ordination theme. Compare Prophetic Datum Point; teaching or ceremony alone does not establish an individual’s credentials or legal authority.
March 20, 2026 — Singapore Shore Party (DAVT-50), published by Seminary Gate, communicates homecoming and commissioning and acknowledges Gerard’s vision and guidance. Its linked photo gallery is part of that media trail; the post does not itself establish accreditation or governance decisions.
April 17, 2026 — What’s in the Box?, published by Seminary Gate, presents the seven modalities in relation to gifts, formation and governance and references Gerard’s training. Related teaching is catalogued at 7Modalities and Gerard Seow — Teaching and Formation; the individual video release dates have not been verified.
September 25, 2026 — Source Codes at the Family Gate, by Gerard Seow, applies the seven modalities to family, gifts and human worth. Read alongside Seminary Gate on Substack as a link between public reflection and the workspace’s formation ideas.
October 9, 2026 — Attention is the New Mission, published by Seminary Gate, connects attention, the modalities and academic inquiry. 7 Deadly Sins × 7 Modalities (Public Theology research frame) is a related, separately created workspace synthesis, not proof of a research outcome.
October 24, 2026 — From Geylang to Temple Street, published by Seminary Gate, brings migration, labour, neighbourhood and faith into the City of Faith narrative. The oral-history register below offers related historical leads; the theological vision and historical claims remain distinct.

A working index of research linked to Gerard Seow and the National Archives of Singapore (NAS). The dates below are the creation dates of the linked workspace pages, used only to order the records: they are not verified dates of discovery, and the current contents may have been added later. Individual interview recording dates are not discovery dates. The index is not an exhaustive census of all workspace entries; additional records and discovery dates require verification.

This research considers how people, institutions and communities contributed to Singapore’s development. “Antioch of Asia” and “Galilee among the nations” express the Seminary’s Christian vision of receiving, forming and serving the nations; they are theological interpretations, not conclusions established by the interviews. “Ground zero” refers here to particular periods of crisis and reconstruction, not an absence of history or communities before modern Singapore.
