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. ...

Zhang Ting's Master of Divinity Time flies, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye, and I have completed the course of the Master of Divinity. Recalling the time when I was chosen and called by God, bargained with God over and over again, and even dedicated myself to respond to God, put down my work and put on my schoolbag, worked late into the night to catch up on homework, and used God’s love to first demolish and then build up—there were laughter and some Tears, blood, and sweat. Looking back, it is indeed a path of grace! ...

Lin Xizhang, Master of Divinity, has studied the life of a group of disciples. During my three years at the college, I often heard the dean and teachers emphasize that "Baptism in God" is a group of disciples, and we must learn to live the life of a group of disciples. To me, the community life of disciples here is a process of getting used to theological students with different backgrounds and personalities. It is not easy to learn. But God allows us to discover each of us through group life, and our lives can be changed. This kind of learning not only brings about spiritual renewal, but also helps us build a community of disciples where we serve in the future. ...

Lin Yingxin, a first-year Master of Divinity student, was overwhelmed by business. I made the decision to believe in the Lord at an evangelistic meeting when I was in high school. In 2003, I was baptized at Quarry Bay Baptist Church. For twelve years after graduating from college, I have been working in retail management, 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, and became the general agent of a certain brand in Hong Kong and Macau. At this time, I was overwhelmed with business. Not only was I busy with socializing and opening a chain store, I also spent a lot of money on brand-name clothes, and even started to "speculate in real estate." ...

Liang Fumou, first year Master of Divinity. Fumou, Ziwei and their children. Sudden pressure. More than ten years ago, a brother once asked me: "Will you serve full-time in the future?" I answered without hesitation: "Maybe until Let me retire!" He said, "Will that take too long?" I replied casually: "Then please pray for me, hoping that I can retire as soon as possible!" In fact, I am not opposed to full-time ministry, but in my heart Not impressed. ...

Jerry Moye Emeritus Professor of Old Testament and Spirituality Changes in Time In 1973, I began teaching at Hong Kong Baptist Theological Seminary. At that time, there was no Chinese professor who had obtained a doctorate among the teaching team. But it is different now. We have a considerable number of Chinese professors with profound knowledge. They have obtained doctorate degrees from some prestigious universities in the United Kingdom and the United States. The first ten years I taught at the college, there were not many students in my classes. I remember one year when there were only two graduates from the basic theology course. Today, the college has many graduates completing various courses every year, and we offer more than one basic theology course. ...

Professor Deng Shaoguang Christian Thought (Theology and Culture) The Master of Divinity program is very different from the previous Master of Divinity program, both in terms of learning and teaching. As a teacher, the teaching methods adopted by the author also reflect the learning requirements for students. No one knows how to learn independently from the beginning. The Master of Divinity is only the first degree on the path of theological study, so all you learn is introductory knowledge. When studying for a master's degree in theology course, with basic theological knowledge, students can directly read the original scriptures and participate in discussions, thereby learning independent theological thinking. Therefore, the author uses a seminar method to teach, requiring students to take turns to report and respond, to clarify and discuss back and forth, and to deepen their understanding of the original scriptures. This is the first step to engaging in independent research. ...

Professor Wong Fook-Kwong Old Testament Bible Our school's Master of Theology course is a course that allows students to study the Bible (Old Testament or New Testament) and explore theology more deeply. This depth is difficult to achieve in basic courses such as the Master of Divinity or the Bachelor of Theology. In many seminaries in the United States (including the one I attended), the Master of Theology program is equivalent to the first year of the doctoral program. "Baptism" also has similar requirements. In order to make the doctoral students of theology more solid in certain areas of knowledge, we sometimes require them to take some master's of theology subjects on a case-by-case basis. For this reason, master of theology students majoring in Bible must be proficient in reading the original texts of the Bible (Hebrew and...

Lei Jiansheng (graduated in 2010) Acting Senior Pastor of Causeway Bay Baptist Church I completed the Master of Divinity course at a seminary of another denomination. After pastoring for three years, I went to the Baptist University to study for a master's degree in theology and graduated in 2010. Before officially enrolling, I asked my seniors about the uniqueness of the teaching model and learned that it is a small class teaching model for guided reading and learning (guided...
