Chan Chi-wang (B.Th.) Chan Chi-wang and his wife Chan Hsiu-ling The Unattainable Theology Looking back from my childhood to today, I have had different feelings and experiences about "theology" at different stages. At first, I felt that theology was out of reach, something that could only be viewed from afar and was full of mystery. I grew up in the church since I was a child. When I was a teenager, in my eyes, preachers and pastors were sacred offices, and they were all called by the Lord. They serve full-time, devote themselves completely, become pastors, and remain committed. At that time, I saw that those who devoted themselves to studying theology were mostly fellowship mentors with rigorous attitudes, serious spiritual practice, and full of spiritual wisdom. I admired them very much. At that time, I felt that I would not become a theology student because I did not hear God’s call clearly and did not have their spirit of sacrifice and suffering. At that time, theology left a deep impression on me - theology was only the privilege of a few specially called people. ...

Karen Cheng (M.Div.) Karen Cheng and her husband Liu Weiqiang I remember when I first started studying theology, a preacher reminded me: The most difficult part of being a theology student is not doing the homework, but experiencing the process of God tearing down and rebuilding your life. At the time, although I understood and agreed with what she said, I did not experience it deeply. It wasn't until the shock of it all that I realized how true these words were. ...

Joe Chan (M.Div.) Joe Chan, his wife, Sham Lok-sze, and their son, Chan Chun-yat, embark on their theological journey: Responding to God’s CallingIn 2001, I was baptized and joined the church. Under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, I saw that people need God, so I made up my mind to respond to God’s call and enrolled in a Bachelor of Biblical Studies program in 2004 to equip myself on a part-time basis. By the time I finished my bachelor's degree, I had already started a family. In order to give my wife a comfortable life, I worked hard every day to earn money, and gradually neglected the mission God gave me. Although my wife reminded me not to Don't forget my calling after marriage, I was unwilling to leave this comfortable environment. In addition, my wife gave birth to a child for me in 2013, so I put raising the child first. ...

Brothers and sisters responded to God’s call and entered Hong Kong Baptist Theological Seminary (“Baptist”), embarking on a theological journey full of amazing grace. In addition to receiving theological equipment in the discipleship community, they also need to learn to watch each other and walk together when they encounter difficulties and challenges, relying on the Lord’s sufficient grace to get through them together. During this period, students experienced God reshaping their lives so that they could become His faithful servants, practice their faith in this changing era, and continue their theological journey. ...

Yuen Tin-man (M.Div. 1) Angels of Companionship I am the second generation believer in my family, but I have never really pursued faith. When I encountered difficulties, I realized that God had quietly intervened in my life. I found that there were always angels around me, teaching me who God was and walking with me. The school preacher, mentor and pastor of the mother church often discussed faith with me. After a period of searching for faith, I changed my mind in Form 4, gradually resumed fellowship life, and was attracted to faith again. I found that faith has gradually changed me, both in the way I treat people and in the way I view the world; this new life is very precious! ...

Hymns Leung (M.Div. 1) God has blessed me to be born into a Christian family, a second-generation believer. Although I have known God since I was a child, I have always been far away from Him and have not followed the Lord seriously. In matters big and small, we always consider ourselves before God, not to mention how to serve and respond to Him. It was not until my Form 6 year, facing public examinations, that I felt helpless and unsure about my future and the path ahead, which drove me to hold on to God. Praying to the Lord became my way out when I was helpless. I still remember the deal I made with God: "God, if you let me get into college, I will definitely preach your gospel there!"...

Titan Mak (M.Div. 1) Titan Mak, his wife Ruizhen and his son Maibo were in the senior grade of primary school. When I decided to believe in the Lord at the gospel camp held in school, I was only half-believing and half-doubting in my heart. My initial church life only lasted for one or two months. Thank God for not forgetting me and for arranging an angel for me. By chance, I met a friend who brought me to church, and since then church life has opened a new chapter in my life! ...

Kwok Tak-sum (B.Th. 1), Bachelor of Theology, Year 1. Tak-sum with his wife Min-yee and their daughters Xin-yue and Shang-shang. “Waste Youth” Experiences in Theological Seminary When I was in junior high school, I loved sports. I played football and ran every day. I represented the school in competitions and won numerous awards. However, my academic performance was far from satisfactory. In Form 3, I was even expelled from school due to poor academic performance. This experience made me feel worthless and hopeless, and I was unhappy every day. After transferring to another school, I gradually became a bad student, making trouble in class, smoking, and fighting with others. It can be said that before I believed in the Lord, I was a hopeless and worthless "waste youth". Precisely because they cannot find the value of their own lives, they resort to all kinds of abnormal behaviors to try to find and affirm their own value. ...

Tiger Chan (Th.D) Dean Cao Weitong awarded the doctoral degree to student Tiger Chan. Looking back, we have crossed hills and mountains, and the road has been bumpy. The grace of God is everywhere, and the friendship of fellow travelers is endlessly grateful! The journey to study for a doctorate degree is finally completed. Looking back, I realized that I had walked over many hills and turned many detours. Along the way, I am grateful to my classmates and teachers who gave me their support. ...

Brian Lam Chaplain, Director of Field Education, Lecturer of Practical Theology Peter F. Drucker (1909-2005) is a well-known contemporary management guru. He has particularly innovative and unique insights on the management of non-profit organizations and is highly respected by all walks of life.

Drucker’s insights on the management of non-profit organizations are worth our reference and can also be an inspiration for Baptist Theological Seminary to develop its volunteer team. ...
