Christian Life and Death Education

What is life and death education?
How should churches and Christians respond to death and related issues?
And how can we explore the meaning of life through death?

　　The Hong Kong Baptist Theological Seminary (HKBTS) is actively promoting Christian education about life and death issues. Not long ago, the Lay Theological Education Department (LTED) of the seminary held the “Understanding Death, I Live” Christian Life and Death Education Seminar in coordination with a local church. The seminar explored this topic from various perspectives, including personal/theological, church, and community dimensions. LTED will also launch a new program called “Certificate in Life and Death Education from Christian Perspective” in October, aiming to better equip believers with a comprehensive understanding of these issues.

　　In the following text, we will first report on the highlights and exciting content of this gathering. Then, Mr. Carter Pang, LTED Director, will share the reasons behind promoting Christian life and death education and introduce the unique features and content of this brand-new program.
