Testimonies

I completed my Bachelor of Theology and am now continuing with a Master of Divinity program at TCA College. I enjoy studying at TCA because the learning experience here is fulfilling and has helped me grow in many ways. I still remember when I first joined TCA, the Senior Pastor, knowing I was a goal-oriented and independent person who didn’t place much value on relationships in ministry, reminded me that in my theological journey, I must not only gain knowledge but also learn to build relationships. I’ve kept those words close to my heart.

Here, I’ve encountered dedicated and humble teachers and made wonderful friends. God knew exactly what my life needed most, and when I committed myself to learning here, He placed the very resources I needed right beside me—teachers and classmates who treat one another with sincerity. They deeply value relationships, and through their influence, I’ve truly come to understand how important relationships are. TCA has a rich learning atmosphere, and the bonds between teachers and students are warm and close. Everyone encourages and supports one another with a spirit of mutual help, and this has become an essential part of my personal growth. Studying in such a caring and relational environment, I am deeply grateful for God’s grace.

TCA’s educational goal is to equip every student to be an effective servant of God. The faculty consistently reflect this in their teaching, and the courses are designed to provide practical tools. Over the past three years, my life has been continually shaped and adjusted. I’ve come to realize that ministry shouldn’t be confined to just one aspect—it requires a broader vision and a kingdom mindset. All our equipping is ultimately for building up God’s church and helping others grow spiritually. Because of this, I also joined the youth and cell group ministries. Seeing my growth, my Senior Pastor has expressed joy and encouragement.

At TCA, I also learned how to overcome my fear of speaking in front of others. In 2019, I ran for student council president. Although I was not elected, I believe God used the experience to help me face my fears and confront my weaknesses with courage. Over the three years, I also participated in two debates and regularly presented in class each semester. Through these experiences, I’ve gained confidence and no longer fear speaking in front of people. I’m deeply thankful for God’s grace in this area!

The growth I’ve experienced at TCA has surprised me and filled me with gratitude. As I continue my Master of Divinity studies, I look forward to gaining even more so I can better serve the Lord.
