Her sharing here allows you to understand the expectations and expectations in her heart, and you can also better understand the service of a music minister. Looking forward to Wen Zhanglian (associate professor of church music in our college) With an excited heart, I am looking forward to the sacred music revival meeting on April 23 this year. This is the second time I have collaborated with some teachers at the academy to design a worship service. The theme this time is "Be strong and courageous. Bravely forge ahead." As the name suggests, we must uphold the faithfulness of the Lord in front of everyone and sing about His care and comfort for us and His promises that will never fail! We will also examine our weaknesses and pray that through the power of God, we will have the strength and courage to face life and challenges. ...

The Feelings of One Who Listened to Graduating Preaching

It is a new thing this year that the College of Chan Laiwa Chan's third-year Bachelor of Arts in Pastoral Studies arranged for fresh graduates to preach in the morning assembly. For a group of students who have barely stepped out of the factory, it is a good thing to be able to try their skills in the academy for the first time. However, it is not easy to stand in front of teachers, classmates and co-workers to preach. It is such a big challenge. I believe that the students will not be without their struggles! I really want to applaud this class of students who have the courage to accept the training of preaching. ...

The Feelings of a Graduating Preacher

A step preached by Huang Baiming in the graduating class of Master of Divinity. For me, August 2009 was the beginning of the last year of my life as a theological student.

Dribs and Drabs from the Graduating Sermons

We have extracted the following passages from the sermons of three graduating students to share the sermon information with readers. Although these paragraphs are only a small part of the entire sermon and are inevitably a bit fragmented, we still hope that readers who are unable to attend the morning meeting can share bits and pieces of the graduation sermon. Somewhat coincidentally, these three sermons jointly reveal the would-be evangelists' spiritual reflections on their own duties from different levels...

The Unforgettable "Graduating Preaching"

The "Graduation Sermon" added this academic year will give the graduating class an unforgettable experience. This class of students has an opportunity that many senior brothers and sisters have never had - to stand on the podium at the college's morning meeting and preach information in front of teachers, classmates and a group of co-workers in the college. Precisely because they are prospective preachers who are about to leave school and apprentices who are about to "fulfill their teachings", the college feels that it is necessary to give them a special opportunity to preach and practice, so that they can be encouraged and reminded, and they can continue to preach throughout their lives. Forget the reminder from your alma mater: Preaching is an extremely important ministry of the preacher. ...

From Bible Translation to Teaching

When She Qingji, assistant professor of Old Testament, wrote this book, it was the beginning of a new academic year at the seminary. This is my first year teaching full-time at "Baptism". Although I have participated in the teaching work of "Baptism" in the past two years, I have only been a special lecturer part-time. The day I became a full-time teacher was also the time when I said goodbye to the Bible translation work of the past ten years. Therefore, this is an appropriate time to review and look forward to the past and the road ahead. ...

Have I Heard God’s Call Wrongly?

Lam Chi Ching, a graduate of the Master of Divinity, continues to struggle: Have I heard the wrong call? It has been four years since I entered the seminary to receive theological equipment in 2006 and graduated this year. Looking back on the past four years, I have experienced a lot of ups and downs. The changes in people and things around me have caused many impacts, which have brought many difficulties to my theological career in the past few years. I once asked God: "Am I capable of completing the entire theology course?" "Have I heard the wrong call?" In the past few years, these struggles have continued to occur in my heart, but God has called me out of these struggles again and again. Seeing His kindness, God continues to strengthen my faith and reliance on Him, allowing me to deeply appreciate His faithfulness and mercy. ...

I am willing to serve You full time in the future!" At that moment, I was convinced that God had indeed listened to my prayer. ...
