Our first-ever Symposium held in our new Lecture Theatre in the new Paya Lebar Campus was well attended by members of churches, colleagues and friends from other bible colleges, alumni and students. More than 100 participants attended the ‘Women’s Voices in Bible and Theology’ Symposium on 19th June and we had over 220 attendees for the ‘Breaking Free From Addiction’ Symposium on 20th June.

It was altogether an enriching time with speakers deliberating on issues that ranged from human rights and evangelical foundational fideism on the first day, to understanding social ills like the proliferation of online MMORPG games amongst youngsters in today’s society on the second day.

The College thanks all staff and students who have worked hard for the Symposium and we look forward to organising more Symposiums in the future that will benefit people from all walks of life.

The Chinese Seminar on Modern Trends in Old Testament Studies on 20th June night was also a successful one. Amongst the more than 100 participants, some have even come especially from Malaysia to attend the Seminar. Dr Daniel See was a candid speaker educated in Sheffield University and he shared his insightful views on how to read the Old Testament. The Seminar finished off with a lively Question and Answer session. We will see more of such positive engagements with scholars in the future in our new Campus.
