郭鴻標博士

Cantonese Speaker

郭鴻標牧師 - 建道神學院副院長(行政) / 張慕皚教席教授 / 神學研究部主任 / 神學系主任 / 《建道通訊》主編

  • 神道學士:東南亞神學研究院,香港,1986

  • 神學碩士:東南亞神學研究院,香港,1991

  • 神學博士:漢堡大學,德國,1997


郭牧師專注於研究當代德國神學家潘能伯(Wolfhart Pannenberg)和莫特曼(Jürgen Moltmann)的神學。在教學過程中,郭牧師強調整體神學思維,從聖經神學、教會歷史、教義神學、屬靈和倫理學的角度思考當今的問題和情況。透過馬丁路德(Martin Luther)、加爾文 (John Calvin )和當代德國神學家的神學,郭牧師發展了自己的神學、屬靈神學和倫理學觀念。此外,他的研究領域涵蓋教義神學。於2022年出版的《基督信仰—連結與整合》探討了教義神學的重要性。儘管一些人對教義神學抱持厭惡的態度,但基督信仰不僅僅是感受和激情的行動參與,更應建立在對真理的追尋上。他的第三個研究範圍是宗教改革神學,這個時代有各種主流和非傳統的改革者。宗教改革神學的立體和多元面貌值得我們學習,以建立一種「全球基督教」(Global Christianity)的思維。

FAQS

  • Lodge rooms (such as Alderwood) are carpeted with bathroom and shower indoors connected to room. The Lodges have bunk beds for 4 adults. Full Linens, consisting of pillows, sheets, blankets and towels are provided.

    Cabins are standard accommodations with a restroom and shower nearby outside the cabin. No linens are provided, so guest need to bring their own pillow, blankets and towels.

    See Alliance Redwood Conference Ground website for more details

  • While specific room assignments cannot be guaranteed based on the availability at the campsite, you can request a specific site when you enroll. Make your request in the additional Info area or email justinlim@aol.com

    Requests will be considered with priorities given to those physically challenged, guests, and on a first come first serve basis

  • SFCAC wants to encourage participation and the pricing this year includes a church subsidy for all! Therefore, we have simplified the pricing to just one affordable level. The prices for initial enrollment are significantly less than last year to encourage our members to participate in this year’s camp. There will not be separate pricing for part time Friday arrivals.

    However, please do tell us if you cannot make the camp until Friday. This will help on the resource planning for meals and logistics at the camp level so that we can minimize waste in these areas.

    SFCAC Governing Board has take a step of faith that post-camp free will offering will bridge the financial gap due to the subsidy.

  • SFCAC will have Big Rock available, but sadly the Yurts at Pineknot have been allocated to another group.

    SFCAC will not be the only group at Alliance Redwood on these dates and we have been informed the camp will be full.
