Radical Sources of Change: The Conviction and Practice of Our Disciple Community

Deng Shaoguang’s Christian Thought (Theology and Culture) teaches that things are changing, the only question is how they change. "Baptism" has also experienced various changes in the past five years, and people gradually feel that there is always a different atmosphere in Jesus Christ. The changes in "Baptism" over the past few days are not limited to some external visible manifestations, but also go deep into the inner life of this group. It is my experience as an insider that the appearance and the inside are consistent. However, how is this possible? ...

Wrestling with Oneself

Zheng Xiujun, Master of Divinity Four years ago, I dragged my small suitcase and embarked on the road to New Year’s Day before school started. I still remember that moment when I felt light-hearted and just thought: "Wherever You lead me!" At that time, I didn't understand God's call, I just knew to entrust myself to His hands. I never expected that today, four years later, God did not want me to leave my hometown, my tribe, and my family to go somewhere special, but would lead me to return to Macau in a down-to-earth manner and learn to shepherd His church in this small town. ...

Changed Forever

Bachelor of Theology Zeng Huihong started writing at 10 a.m. on August 25, 2015, which happened to be the time when the seminary held its opening ceremony. This year I am no longer a student, and my status as a student has come to an end. Looking back on the past four years of studying theology, I realize that it was a journey of “knowing God, knowing my faith, and knowing myself.” It was also a journey that made me never the same again. ...

Experiencing Unbounded Grace and Advancing Fearlessly

The End Becomes the Beginning

Kam Wai-man (M.Div. 1) Two Ends I was born into a poor family, and my parents worked hard outside all day. As the eldest daughter, I had to take care of my three younger siblings and my frail grandmother when I was a teenager. I silently accepted this job as the "big boss". Since I was a child, I felt that the burden of life was heavy and the future was bleak. When I was in high school, I decided to believe in the Lord in a gospel camp and began to grow up in the church. I got rid of the depression of my youth and received the abundant life given by God. Looking back on those years, I am really grateful for the care and help of my high school teachers and church mentors. ...

God’s Unique Program of Study

Lo Wan-wah (M.Div. 1) It turns out that the time has not come yet. I do not come from a Christian family, but I am very grateful that I believed in the Lord when I was a child. At that time, my aunt took me to the church's children's worship and also attended the children's Sunday school when I was five years old. There were only three children in the Sunday school at that time, but there were two teachers. They taught very hard, and I believed in the Lord at that time. When I grew up, I went to Canada to study mechanical engineering. In my first year of university, I had the honor of attending the winter conference in western Canada. When the speaker called us to serve in the ministry, I raised my hand and responded, walked to the front of the stage and made up my mind. After that, I participated in the work of campus fellowship and also served as a volunteer in some Christian organizations. Friends laughed at me for serving full-time and studying part-time. Although I was busy serving at that time, I felt the joy of serving the Lord. ...

A New Model Designed for Christian Life Coaching

Roy Chan Associate Professor of Practical Theology (Life Coaching, Psychology and Recreational Ministry) Life coaching is a relatively new term. It is a new skill that is sought after in modern management, training, counseling, education and other fields. The Christian community has also begun to promote the education of Christian life coaches. Is it appropriate to use a skill developed in the business world in Christian management, training and counseling? I remember the first time I introduced Christian life coaching in a church fellowship. When I talked about the need for people to pursue their own dreams and goals, a brother asked: "Is pursuing personal dreams and preferences too individualistic and ignoring God's plan in our lives?"...
