Chan Sze-chung (B.Th. 1) Good Friday: I felt nothing in my heart When I was in the second year of secondary school, I was touched by God's great love of sacrifice at a sermon and decided to believe in Jesus. However, my subsequent faith life was not stable. I was deeply troubled by my frequent weaknesses and falls. After graduating from secondary school, I only went to church intermittently, and my relationship with God became increasingly alienated. Despite this, God's love and grace never left me. He listened to my cries from the bottom again and again; when I was lost, He still taught me and led me without abandoning me. ...

Rev. Brian Lam (Chaplain, Director of Field Education and Lecturer of Practical Theology) One day in 2011, I was chatting with Teacher Deng Shaoguang, and he mentioned a scholar who taught in the seminary in the United States and specialized in the integration of theology and psychology. In the summer of the same year, Brother Shaoguang mentioned this scholar again when he preached at the spiritual training camp of the college. So I began to study his works. He is James Luda, who is going to be introduced in this article...

The morning meeting is the collective worship of our faith community, which is part of spiritual exercise and spiritual development. The seminary inherits two traditions: on the one hand, as a theological education institution, we inherit the academic tradition, allowing students to gain a solid foundation in biblical and theological knowledge and receive multiple training and equipment for the ministry of preaching; on the other hand, we also Continuing the monastic tradition of the Christian church, it attaches great importance to the cultivation of the character and spiritual life of the entire group, and the morning meeting is a concrete manifestation of the worship and spiritual practice of the entire group. ...

The distance education course of our college was established in 1998. Last year we just held our 15th anniversary thanksgiving party, and this year we have entered our 16th year. The vision of "distance" is to break through the traditional learning model so that believers can receive theological equipment without being restricted by time and geography. It is an independent, self-study course where students can flexibly arrange their study progress according to their personal circumstances. ...

Dr. Vincent Lau Assistant Professor of Practical Theology (Christian Ethics) My Story After graduating from Baptist Theological Seminary in 1990, I served for eight years and then went to Duke University Divinity School in early 1999.

Cheung Ting (M.Div.) Time flies. Three years have passed in a blink of an eye. I have completed the Master of Divinity program. Looking back, I was chosen and called by God, bargained with God repeatedly, and even devoted myself to responding to God, put down my work and carried my schoolbag, worked all night to catch up on my homework, and used God's love to demolish and then rebuild - there were laughter, tears, blood, and sweat. Looking back, it was indeed a road of grace! ...

Lam Sik-cheung (M.Div.) I have learned about the life of a disciple group. During my three years in the academy, I often heard the dean and teachers emphasize that "HKTS" is a disciple group and we should learn to live the life of a disciple group. For me, the disciple group life here is the process of getting along with the students of different backgrounds and personalities. It is not easy to learn. But God allows us to discover our own self and change our lives through group life. Such learning not only brings spiritual renewal, but also helps us to establish a disciple group in the place where we serve in the future. ...

Lam Ying-yan (M.Div. 1) I was blinded by business. I became a Christian in a sermon at Form 7 and was baptized in Quarry Bay Baptist Church in 2003. After graduating from university, I worked in retail management for 12 years, mainly managing frontline employees and helping them achieve the company's sales targets. In 2009, I left my company and started a business with a good friend whom I trusted very much. We became the general agent of a brand in Hong Kong and Macau. At that time, I was blinded by business. I was not only busy with socializing and opening chain stores, but also spent a lot of money on branded clothes and started "property speculation". ...

Leung Lai-mau (M.Div. 1) Lai-mau, Ziwei and a pair of children are suddenly pressed. More than ten years ago, a brother asked me, "Will you serve full-time in the future?" I answered without hesitation, "Maybe until I retire!" He said, "Will that be too long?" I answered casually, "Then please pray for me, hoping that I can retire earlier!" In fact, I am not opposed to full-time service, but I am not moved in my heart. ...

Dr. Jerry Moye Emeritus Professor of Old Testament and Spirituality Transformation through Time In 1973, I started teaching at Hong Kong Baptist Theological Seminary. At that time, there were no Chinese professors with doctoral degrees among the faculty. Now, however, we have a considerable number of well-educated Chinese professors who have obtained doctoral degrees from some of the most prestigious institutions in the United Kingdom and the United States. In my first ten years at the Seminary, I did not have many students in my classes. I remember one year, there were only two graduates from the Basic Theology course. Today, the Seminary has many graduates every year from various courses, and we offer more than one Basic Theology course. ...
