Doctrine of the Trinity Seminar

WHY?
We know that as Christians, we’re meant to believe that the God we worship is the God who is Trinity. Yet often we find it hard to see why this fact is so significant, or what relevance it might actually have on our day-to-day lives. In addition, it can also be confusing to explain – is God one? Is God three?

This two-day seminar is designed to help Christians deepen their understanding of the Trinity. We hope that as we deepen our theological foundations, we will also find our discipleship strengthened and our heart warmed as we explore the very being of our Triune God himself.

WHO?
Rev Dr Andrew Reid will give the 4 main talks. Andrew is currently senior pastor of Holy Trinity Doncaster, Melbourne, Australia. He has extensive teaching and ministry experience, having also served as a lecturer at a Ridley College in Melbourne and as Director of the Australian Fellowship of Evangelical Students (AFES).
We will also have a range of people in various local ministry contexts serve as workshop or small group leaders.

WHERE?
The second day of the seminar will be held at St. Mary's Anglican Cathedral, next to Dataran Merdeka. However, the first day will now be held at Ascended Christ Anglican Church (MAP) as the Dataran Merdeka is being used for Malaysia Day celebrations.

WHEN?
It will be held on Friday 16th September (Malaysia Day) from 9am to 9pm and continuing Saturday 17th September from 9am to 6pm. Accommodation is not provided.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
RM45. You can pay on the day when you register. This covers lunch and dinner on Day 1, lunch on Day 2, refreshments and study materials.
If you would like to attend but cannot afford this, please let us know. If you would like to contribute financially in any way to the costs, please also let us know.

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT AT THE SEMINAR?
The seminar will be organised around four main talks with further sessions looking at the historical development of this doctrine. In addition, there will be time spent in small groups studying the Bible together to work through the relevant biblical passages. There will also be electives offered to equip Christians to explain the Trinity better, and to explore the application of the doctrine to various aspects of Christian life.

Expect to be stretched, which is a good thing! We are, after all, exploring the deep things of God. Refreshments and lunch will be served on both days, as well as dinner on the Friday, to help keep you going.
