Course: Navigating Christian Life in
Multi-Religious Asia
Closing Date: 13 Aug 2024

Asia is the cradle to some of the world's oldest religions: Buddhism, Daoism, Confucianism and Hinduism. These religious traditions are still very 'alive' and important to millions of Asians. As Christians living in Asia, it is our mission to engage and dialogue with people of other faiths, so as to build bridges for the proclamation of the gospel in Asia. Despite living in such a multi-religious society, many Asian Christians still have superficial knowledge of the religious beliefs of their neighbours.

The aim of this course is to introduce students to Buddhism, Confucianism, Hinduism and Tribal religions, and consider how we may engage these traditions meaningfully in the 21st century. Topics included in this course are the method for the study of world religions and a biblical theology of religions through an interaction of selected religious texts. Throughout the course, practical implications for gospel and culture, evangelism and inter-religious dialogue, the destiny of the unevangelized and the mission of the local church will be also explored.

Dates: Fridays,  16 Aug , 30 Aug, 13, 27 Sep (Guided tour to places of worship), 11 Oct (Visit to Harmony Centre), 25 Oct, 8 Nov
Time: 7.15pm-10.00pm
Venue: Online Via Zoom

Speaker: Mr Low Kwang Meng
