Discover Asian Theological Seminary's mission, history and message.
Explore the rich history and evolution of Asian Theological Seminary over the years.
Asian Theological Seminary, established on February 17, 2003, initially with few men, emerged from a visionary dream dating back to 1987, driven by a deep conviction to prioritize in-depth scriptural study. The founder's experiences, whether metaphorical or literal, depicted a profound battle against ignorance and false teachings within churches, symbolized by untamed cattle and furious wild animals. This imagery underscores the urgent need to equip leaders with solid biblical knowledge while safeguarding them from doctrinal pitfalls. In contrast to the pitfalls of nationwide minor biblical training, ATS stands firm in its commitment to thorough scripture study and doctrinal integrity. This commitment remains a cornerstone, distinguishing ATS from many other theological institutions.
By welcoming students from diverse denominational backgrounds, ATS fosters a rich tapestry of theological perspectives while maintaining a steadfast focus on accurately teaching God's word and nurturing leaders for Christian service. Through an emphasis on the comprehensive study of the 66 books of the Bible and systematic theology, ATS remains dedicated to its mission of preparing Godly leaders to serve effectively in their respective contexts.
