Description :Stanley Cheng is a redeemed disciple of Chr1st, a Multiplier and a Mentor.
After obtaining his MBA from London in 1982, Stanley has worked in various senior management positions in the Asia Pacific Region in SMEs and conglomerates, Fortune 500 MNCs such as Honeywell and Chevron, NGOs such as the YMCA of Singapore, government institutions and as a Consultant for the European Commission-ASEAN COGEN Programmes based in Thailand and Indonesia. In 2000, before China was admitted to the World Trade Organisation (WTO), Stanley was invited by the WTO to give a presentation and training to China senior managers on the topic of International Marketing and Leadership Vision. In 2002, the UK Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM) commissioned Stanley to write an article titled "China Marketing" which was published, and subsequently edited and reprinted in China in 2011. Stanley has been an Adjunct Professor to the Pyongyang University of Science Technology in International Marketing Management since 2011.
Stanley is an Elder of the Asian Institute of Technology Christian Fellowship (AITCF) based in Bangkok with over 100 families from 20 nations in the 50-nations university campus. He is an alumnus of strong discipleship-focused global organisations, The Navigators and the Haggai Institute. His personal experience with MIND FASTING and daily entrenchment in authentic discipleship and intentional disciple-making has given him the joy of a strong foundation and experiencing an intimate walk and a deeper life with Jesus, culminating in direct encounters that have led to many God-ordained miracles (including his two deaths) over the years that are recorded in this book "Divine Encounters @ Marketplace" Volume 1. Since 2002, Stanley's life perspective has been and continues to be shaped by God's vision to him of "China and Many Nations", which was broadened to "Global" vision in 2008. His life motto is: Pleasing God. Connecting Nations. Reaching People.
Stanley has been happily married with Linda since 1979. They have two wonderful children, Melody and Newman, who are enjoying their careers in the legal and medical sector respectively. Newman's recent marriage to Clarissa has been a happy addition to the family. Stanley enjoys meeting and being involved with people. He develops relationships with others by playing sports with them include golf, horse riding, sailing, swimming, basketball, badminton, table tennis and tennis.

“An unfailing sense of wonder, a bold yet childlike faith, amazing accounts of visions, healing, deliverance, breakthroughs in the workplace - there are no coincidences, only divine encounters. Nothing is too trivial, no one too inconsequential. This is a living testimony of how the book of Acts should continue in this day and age. Amazing book from a yielded life that might transform your own walk with God.”

“…William Barclay said that the best defence of one’s faith is to relate a personal experience, and that one’s experience is the most unanswerable argument on earth... Stanley’s experiences here recounted will in an unanswerable way point us to the divine reality who ever seeks to have an encounter with all and sundry.”

“…His life’s experiences with the supernatural, seeing visions, and hearing the voice of God, reinforce the fact that God does not only use clergymen but also ordinary layman, who is willing to be God’s channel of blessings. Stanley’s life is also a constant echo of what the Lord has done for him. Everywhere he went, …his unquenchable desire to preach the Gospel also went with him.”

“Reading this book…is just like sitting with a close friend and listening to him share his awesome journey with his Creator, complete with background music and perhaps even while sipping a glass of red wine or a cup of coffee! It is definitely a good ride with Stanley for anyone who wants to know more about Jesus through his life!”

“God’s word and Stanley’s two death experiences prove that there is: 1) a Creator God, 2) Heaven and Hell, 3) accountability on Judgment Day for all of us, 4) God’s mercy and grace awaiting us all… Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew (LKY) said, “No one has died, been to heaven and returned to tell us the encounter”. I have read this wonder-filled book and would strongly recommend anyone to read with an open mind, with humility and with great expectation what MM LKY had missed but probably restored at the end as he had accepted the Christian meditation of 'Maranatha'... (Come, O Lord).”

“Stanley reminds me of what it is to be led by the Holy Spirit. His simple obedience to God’s voice is all over the pages in the book... This book will surely inspire the reader to draw close to God because inside each one of us is the longing to know Christ more intimately. And that is what the Spirit is trying to convey through these pages beyond church into the marketplace and all places.”
~Pastor Andrew Chay

_________
“…He opened and used his apartment (using Apostle Paul’s model of Acts 28:28-31) for the tasks he loved to do – making disciples…Wherever he is and any place he stays, Stanley would always talk about Jesus and would not stop until all avenues are exhausted to lead a contact to the Lordship of Jesus! This book does not have an ending. It is only a pause. The next chapter will surely come but from his new address!”
~Rev Bob Betia, Ed.D
Retired Filipino Missionary to Indochina (1993-2009)
