Redefining Relevance : Reimagining the American Church for Today's Society | Q & A

The church in Hong Kong has experienced a decline over the past decade, not only in attendance, but also in its impact on society. Fewer people are interested in Christianity or organized religion. Many feel that the church is in crisis. But this has been happening in America for decades.
Rev. Dr. Mark Labberton (Clifford L. Penner Presidential Chair Emeritus and Professor Emeritus of Preaching at Fuller Seminary) has served as a seminary leader and pastor during this ongoing crisis. Although the situations in Hong Kong and America are different, Dr. Labberton's experiences and insights as an evangelical leader in America offer much to learn from. His perspectives can help us reimagine the relevance of the church and faithfully live out its mission in today's society.
過去十年香港教會經歷不少困難，不單只崇拜人數減少，在社會的影響力也仿佛逐步縮減，人們對宗教信仰的興趣亦漸漸減退。不少人認為教會正處於危機之中。然而，作為福音派教會大本營的美國，已經歷了幾十年這樣的變遷。
福樂神學院榮休院長Rev. Dr. Mark Labberton在這個持續危機中擔任了一個神學院領導者和牧師的角色。儘管香港和美國的情況不同，Rev Dr Labberton 作為美國福音派領袖的經歷和見解提供了很多值得本港教會學習的地方。他的觀點可以幫助我們重新想像教會在當形勢之下，可以怎樣面對各樣挑戰，並忠實地履行其在當今社會中的使命。
