在慶祝 Logos International Forum十周年之際，我們深感榮幸並由衷感謝來自中國大陸、香港、臺灣及美國的學者和專業人士的參與及支持，共聚一堂。我們特別感謝主辦單位香港浸會大學文學及社會科學院中華基督宗教研究中心的大力支持，提供場地設施及行政支援；並有本港其他三個機構通力合作，為本屆論壇安排內容充實的四大主題研討：香港浸會大學中華基督宗教研究中心負責「信仰與中國文化」，香港整存普及健康精神協會負責「信仰與心理健康」，香港專業人才服務機構負責「信仰與職場」，亞洲科學與信仰學會負責「信仰與科學」。
論壇為與會志同道合者提供機會，分題探討他們關注的社會及文化議題。「信仰與中國文化」及 「信仰與科學」聚焦信仰的理性探討，而「信仰與職場」及 「信仰與心理健康」則檢視影響社會整體發展的關鍵議題。儘管短短數小時的交流僅能初步觸及這些深邃主題，但本次論壇的意義在於展現信仰在當代廣泛社會與文化議題中的現實相關性。我們期望能鼓勵基督徒在信仰基礎上，建立整全的世界觀，超越聖俗二分的觀念障礙，實踐融入生活各個層面的信仰。
As we celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Logos International Forum, we are thankful for the participation of scholars and professionals from diverse backgrounds, representing Mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the U.S.
We are especially grateful for the sponsorship of Hong Kong Baptist University Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences, with the Centre of Sino-Christian Studies (CSCS) as our host to provide facility and administrative support. This conference program is the result of four organizations working together: CSCS is responsible for Faith & Chinese Culture, HK Holistic Popular Mental Health Association is responsible for Faith & Mental Health, HK Professional & Educational Services Ltd is responsible for Faith & Work, and Society of Science & Religion in Asia is responsible for Faith & Science.
This four-track conference provides an opportunity for participants to engage with others who share their interests in critical social and cultural issues. The Faith & Chinese Culture and Faith & Science tracks explore intellectual challenges that shape our faith journeys, while the Faith & Work and Faith & Mental Health tracks address pressing concerns that impact society as a whole. LIF2025 While a few hours may only begin to uncover the depths of these topics, the significance of this conference lies in demonstrating the relevance of our faith across a wide spectrum of contemporary issues. Our hope is to inspire Christians to cultivate a holistic understanding of their faith—one that transcends the sacred-secular divide and fully integrates into all aspects of life.

在基督教來華歷史中，一直有所謂的「三化」之說，近年來更增加了「中國化」的說法。 「本色化」是西方傳教士在義和團運動之後反思中國事工時提出來的，認為中國教會的 發展需要更多吸納中國同工，在敬拜、詩歌等方面增加中國文化特色。同時，中國基督 徒也對義和團運動有積極反應，即所謂的自立運動，也稱為本土化，不但是在特色上強 調中國文化因素，更是在組織、教義等方面由華人自行主導教會運作。 然而，教會是有傳承的。華人教會如何既在基督教大傳統中，同時又適應在中國的發展， 我們需要結合兩者。於是，從上世紀 20 年代開始，中國教會出現了處境化的發展方向， 在中國社會處境中持守基督教大傳統，涉及聖經詮釋、教義理解、神學建設、教會運作 等等，目的是在中國社會這個大語境中發展並建立中國教會。近年來提出的中國化問題， 雖然沾染一定的政治因素，但還是一種處境化傾向。 本對談已經持續了三屆，其宗旨是繼續推動在華基督教的處境化運動，在深層意義上讓 基督教與中國文化通過對談進行交流，乃至理解、吸納並融合中國文化，建立中國基督 教。對談採取一對一的對話和交流，在主題的框架內，基督教和中國文化雙方都有一位 成名學者，各自發表看法，並進入對談，最後請在座與談學者表達看法。會後，會議將 組織學者對整個對談撰文評議，並在公開學術雜誌發表。相信通過長期的對談和深度交 流，基督教在華的處境化必能一步一步扎實而深入地展開。
人應該如何做人乃是人類生存的永恆問題。儒家提出的君子理念以追求這樣一種理想人 格，即在誠中敬天命而知天意，修身養性而齊家治國。基督教對信徒也有一種人格要求， 即在信心中跟隨耶穌，尋求並遵循上帝旨意而行，在世人面前見證基督。君子與信徒引 導了兩者不同的生存方式。彼此能否共存共進，抑或互損不容？
與談學者：
信仰與中國文化論壇由香港浸會大學中華基督宗教研究中心組織。中心成立於 2001 年， 骨幹成員主要來自浸大宗哲系及歷史系，也有本港及內地其他大學學者參與。中心的成 立提供一個凝聚點，把個別學者的研究整合為更重大和更深入的研究項目。近年無論在 大陸或台灣，很多首屈一指的學術機構紛紛成立基督宗教研究中心或宗教研究所，這顯 示以中華文化為脈絡的基督宗教研究之重要性，受到廣泛重視和肯定。基督宗教思想是 西方文化中不可或缺的成分，以上的趨勢反映出，基督宗教研究有助中國文化的更新和 現代化。香港浸會大學是本地唯一有深厚基督教傳統的大學，具備優越條件成立有關基 督宗教思想的研究中心，促進基督教學術，並秉承「在中國文化處境中的基督教高等教 育傳統」（浸會大學使命之一）繼往開來。

就晚近中國的社會文化狀況而言，科學和信仰都是外來物。不但近代科學不是產生於中 國，本土原生的信仰傳統也遠未達到規範成型的高級狀態。這導致中國在現代化進程中 面對科學與信仰關係時，其理解和把握方式十分混亂和強蠻。但人類文明已進入理性清 明時代，借助於思維和技術發展的條件或許可以更充分而有序地把握科學與信仰的全面 關係，這對中國規避現代化中的負效應，走向一種健康科學與人文關係、實現社會善治 是有重大意義的。
劉孝廷，哲學博士；北京師範大學哲學學院教授、中德萊布尼茨國際研究中心主任； 亞洲自然哲學學會主席；國際有機宇宙論學會前主席；中國自然辯證法研究會前副理 事長/法人；未來化理論提出者。
劉孝廷教授認為，理解科學與宗教關係時必須把宗教和信仰區分開。其中，信仰和科 學理性都可看成純粹精神現象，兩者並無必然衝突；而作為信仰社會「外殼」的宗教， 和作為社會現象的科學倒可能時常處於某種張力中。
郭菁，北京師範大學哲學博士、博士後，現任大連理工大學人文學院哲學系教授、博 士生導師，中國倫理學會科技倫理專業委員會秘書長，中國自然辯證法研究會思維科 學與認知哲學專委會理事；兼任北京師範大學中德萊布尼茲國際研究中心研究員等。
郭菁教授認為，萊布尼茨以前定和諧思想（Leibniz's Harmonie préétablie）論證 上帝存在的必然性。相較於本體論、偶因論、自然神論等證明方式，其論證的優勢在 於它不僅化解了必然與自由的矛盾，也將信仰與理性協調統一，這在今天仍有啟迪作用。
信仰與科學論壇由亞洲科學與信仰學會（Society of Science & Religion in Asia – SSRA） 組織。論壇主持人駱德恩博士是學會發起人之一。SSRA 是成立於 2020 年的學術團體， 旨在促進科學與信仰領域的跨學科研究和教育。總部設在香港，積極支援亞洲地區科學 與信仰對話的學術活動。

踏入 2025 年，全球政治與經濟格局都在轉變，而中美貿易關係的持續惡化，更影響香 港及亞洲地區，進一步加深經濟的不確定性。
在這樣的環境下，各行各業皆面臨嚴峻挑戰。不僅是商業機構，公共事業、非牟利機構， 甚至教會亦需應對生存與發展的難題。在變局中，如何選擇前行之路、如何在利益權衡 中堅守核心價值，這是考驗每一個領導者的關鍵時刻。
在變局中固然要保持彈性，隨機應變。但有什麼是值得我們堅持不懈，以不變應萬變的？

Mental health is a global challenge in our time. The World Health Organization estimates that 280 million people suffer depression, which is a leading cause of disability worldwide. A 2023 survey by the Chinese University of Hong Kong found that 24.4% of participants experienced at least one mental health issue in the past 12 months. A University of Hong Kong study identified that 16.6% of young people have experienced at least one of five mental disorders: depression, anxiety, panic disorder, bipolar disorder, or psychotic disorder.
In 2003, a group of Christian psychiatrists and psychotherapists noticed that many psychiatric patients needed not only medical psychiatric services but also psychotherapy and counseling. With this in mind, they established an integrated treatment center to provide comprehensive mental health care to the public. As they gained more experience, they also recognized the spiritual needs of those they were helping. Therefore, they incorporated religious elements into their services, ensuring that the physical, mental, social, and spiritual needs of their clients were appropriately addressed.
In 2021, Hong Kong Holistic Popular Mental Health Association was established with the mission of making mental health holistic accessible and affordable, promoting positive mental health through various initiatives (mental health friendly churches, careers support, youth mental health), running a referral network of dedicated Christian mental health practitioners (psychiatrists, psychologists, counsellors, spiritual directors), and providing financial assistance to those who cannot afford help. https://www.hpmh.org.hk/
Prof. Michael TH Wong, Honorary Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, The University of Hong Kong Research Fellow, CSCS of HKBU
Abstract: For World Health Organization there is no health without mental health. Using Luke’s appraisal of Jesus as a person (Luke 2:52), my own hermeneutics of multi-layered personal discourse (Wong 2018) and clinical case studies (Wong 2021), I argue that the Christian faith tradition promotes a holistic approach to mental health.

Prof. Sylvia Kwok, Professor of Social Work & Associate Dean of Graduate Studies, City University of HK
Abstract: I will present findings from a mental health research project involving 4,002 respondents, including primary and secondary students, teachers, and parents. Results indicate significant mental health challenges, with approximately one-third of primary students and LIF2025 nearly half of secondary students reporting moderate to severe levels of depression, anxiety, and stress. Additionally, secondary school parents exhibited greater psychological distress than primary parents, with over one-third reporting moderate to high depression levels. These findings underscore the impact of parental mental health on student mental health and wellbeing, highlighting the need for whole-school positive education approaches and supportive intervention programs. Program examples will also be shared in the presentation.
Sylvia Kwok is Professor in the Department of Social and Behavioural Sciences, and Associate Dean in the Chow Yei Ching School of Graduate Studies at the City University of Hong Kong. Sylvia’s research mainly focuses on the family ecological and positive psychological factors that are related to anxiety, depression, suicide, and wellbeing of children and adolescents. She has published over 80 papers related to children and adolescent mental health issues, parenting and positive education in high-impact international refereed journals. As the convener of the Positive Education Laboratory, Sylvia has collaborated with 400 local schools (from pre-primary schools to universities), social welfare agencies, and corporates to promote positive education for the students, teachers, parents, employees, and the community.

Dr. Anthony Tong, Ed.D. Adjunct Associate Professor, Department of Social Work & Social Administration, The University of Hong Kong
Abstract: Christians often struggle with mental health problems despite they have faith in God. Christian Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) bridges the gap by incorporating biblical truths into ACT’s framework, enabling believers to address mental health challenges while deepening their faith in God. As Christians, we are called to live a life of purpose and surrender, even amidst suffering. Christian ACT can help believers: 1) Accept pain as part of life and God’s refining process; 2) Commit to Christ-centered values and actions; 3) Find freedom in their identity in Christ. This presentation will also highlight how Christian ACT can be applied to common mental health problems such as anxiety, depression, trauma and grief.
