Dong J. Thang Suan / Th.M 2015. / From Myanmar
My name is Joshua Thang Suan Dong. My time at GIT grounded me in God’s Word and gave me a firm foundation on which to stand. While at GIT, I was able to put together some of the pieces of my spiritual heritage that have connections even back to the early years. I was privileged to be brought up in a godly family, even while I was still in my mother’s womb she dedicated me to be God’s minister. Having been born in such a pastor family, I believe I have inherited a certain family legacy to serve the Lord, and this fact has influenced all my life. My theological training at GIT encouraged and pushed me to become even more devoted to the way of Jesus.
Having been through theological trainings, a vision for the kingdom of God emerged in an exciting way. When I go back to Myanmar, I will begin serving in Friends Evangelical Baptist Church as youth pastor. At the same time, I will be teaching in the Faith Biblical Academy. It has been twelve years that I have been involved in teaching ministry at FBA, where many of Christian leaders are trained to become reliable religious leaders in Myanmar, a country where Christianity is a minority. As I become mature with God’s love and guidance, I realize profoundly the necessity of commitment in serving the most high and holy God. More especially so because my country is under oppression in every way and Christian leaders must take the responsibility to take care of the broken souls. I have seen that teaching changes lives who become trained and equipped leaders of different churches. Working in God’s vineyard is the joy of my life as well as a big challenge. It is my prayer that God will use me more mightily for His glory and the extension of His Kingdom.
