Story<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">\u3000\u3000Having graduated from HKBTS in 1990, I went first to study in the Master of Theology Program in Duke University Divinity School and then in the Doctor of Philosophy Program in The University of Edinburgh after ministering for eight years. I obtained my Ph.D. in 2005 and began teaching in my alma mater the following year. <\/p>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">\u3000\u3000I intended to concentrate on teaching in order to train more servants of God; unexpectedly owing to the needs of the church, I was already invited to be a consultant pastor of a local Baptist church during my first year of teaching. In the following seven years, in addition to full-time teaching at HKBTS, I also served in succession as a consultant pastor in three Baptist churches. It was due to the resignation of the church pastors in these three communities of faith that they needed a more experienced pastor to be their consultant. My main duty was to shepherd the pastoral co-workers and the deacons. In other words, these three churches faced, to varying extent, crises in church shepherding and leadership. <\/p>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">\u3000\u3000I had served as a consultant pastor for two terms in the first church for about four years. At that time, the church pastor resigned. There were still three pastoral co-workers in the church and a consultant pastor was needed to lead and shepherd these co-workers and the deacons. Later, in my second term of service, God called a HKBTS alumnus who had twenty years of shepherding experience overseas to come back to Hong Kong to be the church\u2019s pastor and therefore I could resign. In that period of time, my greatest challenge was to reorganize the relationship among the pastoral co-workers and monitor the individual workers\u2019 pastoral performance. <\/p>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">\u3000\u3000My ministry in the second church lasted for nine months. As the church found a pastoral successor, it was time for me to resign. <\/p>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">\u3000\u3000I have served in the third church for nearly two years. I recall when I first met the church\u2019s representative, I became aware that four pastoral co-workers would resign one after another. That would mean that several months later, the church would have a pastoral vacuum. Facing such a situation, I was afraid. What came to my mind was: \u201cWhat has actually happened in the church?\u201d Then I asked myself: \u201cWhat can I actually do? How can I do it? Who are you to think that you can solve this problem?\u201d From this comes a more basic question: \u201cGiven such a situation, why do you accept the offer?\u201d Nevertheless, I somehow accepted the challenge. <\/p>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">\u3000\u3000In the twinkling of an eye, I have served as a consultant pastor for seven years. In this period of time, God has enabled me to see His leading and grace to the churches and from this I have gained a little bit of experience. Anyway, \u201cseven years\u201d is a period imbued with theological symbolism. Perhaps, it is time for me to do some initial consolidation of my pastoral experience as a consultant pastor and through which I can do a bit more thinking on the theology and practice of pastoral care. <\/p>\n\t\n<h3 class=\"has-text-color\" style=\"color: #235ba8; font-size: 24px;\"><strong>Concluding My Experience<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">\u3000\u3000The commonality of these three communities is that they are \u201ccomplete strangers\u201d to me. I have had no relation with members of these churches, not having any knowledge, not to mention any understanding of any of them. Therefore, two big problems emerged at once: How actually could I begin to know them? How could I shepherd them? <\/p>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">\u3000\u3000As I recall my shepherding experience of the pastoral co-workers and the deacons, I could summarize my ministry focus in three aspects: fellowship, prayer, and teaching. Readers may find this surprising: why is that fellowship precedes prayer? In fact, according to my personal experience, all three are indispensable and of equal importance, like a rope made up of three strands of thread interwoven together. Any one of these strands of thread is not the center or nucleus of the whole rope. This idea comes from the late Baptist theologian, James William McClendon, Jr., who constructs his theology with one rope consisting of three strands of thread. <sup>1<\/sup><\/p>\n\t \n<h4 class=\"has-text-color\" style=\"color: #235ba8; font-size: 18px;\"><strong>1. Fellowship<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">\u3000\u3000As mentioned above, the commonality of the three communities is that they are \u201ccomplete strangers\u201d to me. In other words, we originally did not know each other and were fully unrelated. Therefore, to achieve the \u201czero breakthrough\u201d, the primary pastoral objective was to come to know each other and build up a relationship. Owing to the very heavy teaching workload in the Seminary and also the constraint of time and physical strength, I always had to invite brothers and sisters to come to the Seminary to have supper first before having a formal meeting. This would enable all group members to come to know one another over the table and table fellowship has become an indispensable shepherding time. As for meeting with pastoral co-workers, to have dim sum together in a Chinese restaurant is a pretty good choice. Of course to have sincere sharing and to have the prayer session in the office with individual pastoral workers are also crucial. And so, no matter whether it is dim sum or table fellowship at supper time, they are extremely important in shepherding individual brothers and sisters, deacons and pastoral co-workers because it all begins with building relationships. <\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-color\" style=\"color: #235ba8; font-size: 18px;\"><strong>2. Prayer<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">\u3000\u3000Ever since becoming Christian, we have been taught the importance of prayer. Therefore, in our mind we know that prayer is absolutely necessary. Yet, how about our practice of prayer in our daily lives? In retrospect, whenever I communed with individual pastoral co-workers or deacons, the final prayer session would always be the sweetest moment, representing our submission and entrusting the matter to God, and a testimony of unity. It is especially true when we were confronted with some difficult problems and there would inevitably be long and heavy discussion. Sometimes, we even found it helpless but the final prayer session when everyone was praying with the same heart was our \u201ctrump card\u201d and also our way out. This is based on a \u201cfaithful\u201d conviction: as long as we are faithfully serving God, He holds the result in His hand because \u201cit is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful\u201d (1 Cor 4:2). The responsibility of a farmer is to plant faithfully as to whether the plants will grow is beyond his control. We do not have to worry but just have to entrust it to God because He is faithful. <\/p>\n\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">\u3000\u3000Hence, no matter whether meeting with individual brothers or sisters, sharing life\u2019s ups and downs, or having a formal meeting with the whole deacon board, prayer is absolutely not a \u201cformality\u201d before the meeting coming to an end. Instead, it is when we entrust our lives and the matter under discussion to God and fully submitting ourselves to Him, we will find that it is the \u201cbreathing moment\u201d of our lives as we allow the Holy Spirit to breathe oxygen into our lives, and, in particular, it gives an expression to the practice of confessing \u201cChrist is Lord\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-color\" style=\"color: #235ba8; font-size: 18px;\"><strong>3. Teaching<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">\u3000\u3000Whenever there is good fellowship and moment of prayer among brothers and sisters, teaching will naturally take place. In fact, most of my teaching to brothers and sisters and pastoral co-workers takes place over the table in our fellowship. One of the most unforgettable experiences was when I took up the offer to be the consultant pastor of a community in the midst of a pastoral crisis. I began to have table fellowship with different groups of brothers and sisters in succession so as to understand how each one of them felt and looked at things, trying to grasp what most people thought and to analyze the symptoms of the predicament. Most important of all, I tried to share with them from the perspective of the Christian faith and my own personal experiences. After that, I had the opportunity to have supper with a brother alone at HKBTS and during that time I shared with him the teaching of Christian faith on confession, forgiveness, and reconciliation. I encouraged him to just fulfill his duty faithfully and put God\u2019s teaching into practice. We then entrusted the result to God. In so doing, we would not feel ashamed before God. Thank God that this brother took the initiative to suggest that he was willing to give his testimony in the following church\u2019s communion service when he would apologize to the congregation for his past attitudes and behaviors, begging their forgiveness and seeking reconciliation. <\/p>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">\u3000\u3000Undeniably, his decision and the choice to re-build the relationship among brothers and sisters\u2014re-build the church\u2014have a key role to play. The Holy Spirit first moved him, changed him, and worked among brothers and sisters in the church, and then the road to rebuild the church gradually emerged; this is truly a practice of \u201cbinding and loosing\u201d. We can see a beautiful picture: how the Holy Spirit moves the human hearts and the human\u2019s responses. To John Howard Yoder, when the action of God and the action of human meet, this is a sacrament; Baptists call this an ordinance. <sup>2<\/sup><\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-color\" style=\"color: #235ba8; font-size: 24px;\"><strong>Theological Reflection<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">\u3000\u3000How to shepherd pastoral co-workers and church leaders? Dietrich Bonhoeffer has written a book on pastoral care (the Chinese translation version has recently been published) <sup>3<\/sup> which can give us some insight. <\/p>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-color\" style=\"color: #235ba8; font-size: 18px;\"><strong>1. The Mission of Spiritual Care<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">\u3000\u3000In the first lecture, Bonhoeffer began by saying, \u201cThe mission of spiritual care falls under the general mission of proclamation.\u201d Spiritual care is a kind of proclamation and is part of the office of preaching. Just as what Paul says in 2 Timothy 4:2, \u201cPreach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage\u2014with great patience and careful instruction.\u201d Bonhoeffer specifically points out the difference between spiritual direction and spiritual care. The former \u201cis carried out on a plane between two people, one of whom subjects himself to the other\u201d whilst spiritual care \u201ccomes down \u2018from above,\u2019 from God to the human being.\u201d As this is the proclamation of the word of God, God Himself will fulfill it. Therefore, \u201cin the midst of all anxiety and sorrow we are to trust God. God alone can be a help and a comfort.\u201d <sup>4<\/sup><\/p>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">\u3000\u3000Bonhoeffer holds that spiritual care is necessary for the following four reasons. First, a person \u201cgrows callous toward hearing the Gospel through unknown and secret sins.\u201d Second, \u201cthe sermon from time to time only strengthens impenitence.\u201d Third, \u201cthe sermon cannot call sins by name and thus is powerless to expel them.\u201d Finally, \u201cthe oral expression of the parishioner is essential but it does not transpire in the sermon.\u201d <sup>5<\/sup> Therefore, Bonhoeffer concludes his first lecture with this statement: spiritual care \u201cuncovers sin and creates hearers of the gospel.\u201d <sup>6<\/sup> Later, in his eighth lecture \u201cConfession as the Heart of Spiritual Care\u201d, he goes a step further in the discussion. We can see that the goal of all spiritual care is \u201cthe confession that we are sinners.\u201d The most specific expression of this is man\u2019s act of confession. In other words, \u201cthe confessional is the essential focus for all spiritual care\u201d; <sup>7<\/sup> spiritual care is to make a person know that he has sinned through the word of God so that he can repent. <\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-color\" style=\"color: #235ba8; font-size: 18px;\"><strong>2. Spiritual Care by the Pastors<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">\u3000\u3000The main responsibility of a consultant pastor is to build up the lives and the team of pastoral workers so that the whole team can achieve solidarity. To Bonhoeffer, the relationship between pastors is decisive for the church. Without solidarity, animosity and hatred between pastors is destructive for the church. <sup>8<\/sup> Therefore, he reminds us that pastors \u201cshould intentionally seek spiritual care about the responsibilities of the office\u201d because a pastor also needs another person to care for his own soul. Indeed, \u201conly one who has been under spiritual care is able to exercise spiritual care.\u201d <sup>9<\/sup> This makes me think of the seminary of the Confessing Church, the Preacher\u2019s Seminary in Finkenwalde, Germany. James W. McClendon, Jr. describes that Bonhoeffer demanded students to do one thing \u2014 each student was required to choose a fellow student of the same gender and make a private confession of his sins to this person in preparation for the common Eucharist. <sup>10<\/sup> Bonhoeffer required himself to do the same as he regarded it as a communal exercise in following Christ. In this way disciples watched over, corrected, and cared for one another. This gave expression to the very need and importance of spiritual care among shepherds themselves. This is also the core path in building the lives of shepherds and the teamwork of the pastoral workers. <\/p>\n\n<p align=\"\u201cjustify\u201d\">\u3000\u3000To conclude, seven years of being a consultant pastor have enriched my shepherding experience. Again and again, I can see that there is a divine, mystical triangular relationship: God is working among me and brothers and sisters; if we are willing to open ourselves under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, God will do great things to enable us to mutually experience the transformation and growth in our lives and that the church will be built up. May glory be to the Triune God! <\/p>\n<h3 class=\"has-text-color\" style=\"color: #808080; font-size: 10px;\">____________________________________________<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><sup>1<\/sup> James William McClendon, Jr., <em>Ethics: Systematic Theology<\/em>, vol. 1, 2nd edition, revised and enlarged (Nashville: Abingdon, 2002), 45-79.

I received my degree in 2005 and returned to my alma mater to teach the following year. I intended to focus on teaching and training God&#039;s servants; however, due to the needs of the church, I was invited to serve as an advisory pastor for a Baptist church in my first year of teaching. For the next seven years, in addition to teaching full-time at Baptist Theology, I served as an advisory pastor for three other Baptist churches. All three communities needed experienced pastors as advisors due to the departure of their senior pastors, so my primary responsibility was to pastoralize the pastoral staff and deacons. In other words, all three churches faced pastoral and leadership crises to varying degrees. I served as an advisory pastor at my first church for two terms, totaling approximately four years. At that time, the senior pastor had resigned, and the church still had three pastoral staff members, thus requiring an advisory pastor to lead and shepherd the pastoral staff and deacons. Later, during my second term, God moved a member of the church who had graduated from Baptist Theology and had twenty years of pastoral experience overseas to return to Hong Kong to assume pastoral duties, allowing me to retire. During this period, the biggest challenge was managing relationships among pastoral staff members and the pastoral performance of individual staff members. My ministry at the second church lasted about nine months, and I resigned once the church found a successor senior pastor. My ministry at the third church lasted nearly two years. Looking back on my initial meeting with the church representatives, I learned that the church&#039;s four pastoral staff members were resigning one by one, meaning that a pastoral vacuum might occur in a few months. Faced with this situation, I felt deeply apprehensive. My first thought was, &quot;What exactly happened to the church?&quot; I then asked myself, &quot;What can I do? How can I do it? What makes me think I&#039;m capable?&quot; This led to a more fundamental question: &quot;If this is the case, why accept it?&quot; Yet, for some reason, I accepted it. Seven years have passed since I became a consultant pastor. During this time, God has shown me His guidance and grace towards the church, and I have gained some understanding from it. In any case, &quot;seven years&quot; is a period full of theological symbolism. Perhaps it&#039;s time to begin organizing my experience as a consultant pastor and reflect on the theology and practice of pastoral care. The common thread among the three groups I summarized was &quot;complete unfamiliarity.&quot; I had no relationship with these church members; I didn&#039;t know them, let alone understand them. Therefore, two major problems immediately arose: How could I begin to get to know them?
