Do you believe the Bible is translatable in any language and applicable in any culture? We would like to invite you to come and learn the language, study the culture, and gain an understanding of how local theologians and thinkers approach God's word in a Filipino context. Be a part of training and mentoring the next generation of church and mission leaders for the Philippines and beyond.
Job Description We want to see God glorified through Philippine society exhibiting the Biblical kingdom value of the knowledge of God and His will, with all wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives (Col 1:9). As the evangelical church continues to grow in the Philippines, the need for leadership training and theological education also increases. There are many excellent Bible Schools and seminaries throughout the Philippines and there are opportunities both to study and to serve in these institutions: • Asian Graduate School of Theology (AGST). https://www.agstphil.org/ • Biblical Seminary of the Philippines (BSOP). https://bsop.edu.ph/about/ • Asian Theological Seminary (ATS). https://ats.ph • Koinonia Theological Seminary (KTS). http://www.kts8.edu.ph/ Come for 2 years where 50% of your time is spent in theological education, learning language and studying culture to understand how Filipino theological thinking has been formed. If you thrive, we would encourage you to stay on for a longer term, going home every two years for two to three months. While teaching is in English, learning the Filipino national language will enable you to contextualize your teaching and help you build friendships and thrive in the local culture. Short term trips are encouraged.
- Commit to and engage in the life and curriculum of the seminary or Bible school you are assigned to. - Connect and participate in local churches, learning about local forms of worship and church governance. - Be willing to participate in local and international theological networks.
- To teach at a Bible college or seminary usually requires post-graduate qualifications. - A servant heart and a desire to understand and engage with contextual theologies. - An ability to communicate complex concepts clearly in English in a multilingual context.
- Most post graduate seminaries are situated in the major cities of the Philippines where comfortable and affordable housing is available.
There is still a need to bring the Gospel in all its fullness to this diverse nation that is open to missionaries.
