港九培靈研經會(下稱培靈會),是一個每年舉行、不分宗派的華人基督教聚會,歡迎各地教會與人士參加。培靈會旨在透過深入宣講聖經以鞏固信徒靈命,鼓勵信徒回應神的呼召委身事奉,並為教會帶來合一和復興。
緣起
首屆培靈會於1927年7月在廣州舉行,翌年8月伸延至香港。成立初期,培靈會每年固定於7月及8月,分別在廣州與香港兩地舉行。除二戰時期曾停辦外,歷年均持續舉行。戰後復辦初期,培靈會每年先在香港島舉行,再移師九龍,「港九培靈研經會」之名因而得來。
現今的培靈會
自1971年起,培靈會每年8月借用九龍城浸信會為主場地,舉辦為期十天的聚會。2003年起,透過轉播技術於港九新界設立多個轉播點,讓更多信徒同步參與,現場赴會人次曾逾20萬。隨後,培靈會亦於香港以外設多處轉播點,使各地華人信徒得造就復興。2020年起,藉著神的恩典,聚會引入網絡同步直播及會後重溫功能。現時,全球每年超過100萬人次參與這
個屬靈盛宴。
The Hong Kong Bible Conference (HKBC) is an annual, non-denominational gathering of Chinese Christians, open to churches and individuals worldwide. It seeks to strengthen believers' faith through powerful biblical preaching, inspiring them to answer God's call to service and bringing spiritual revival and unity to the global Chinese church. Our History
HKBC originates from an annual preaching conference which was first held in Guangzhou in July 1927 and expanded to Hong Kong the following August. In its early years, the conference was held annually in July and August in Guangzhou and Hong Kong, respectively. Aside from a temporary suspension during World War II, the event has proceeded without interruption. In the early post-war period, the HKBC was held every summer first on Hong Kong Island and then in Kowloon. Today’s HKBC
Since 1971, HKBC has held its ten-day annual conference in August, with Kowloon City Baptist Church as its main venue. Starting in 2003, broadcasting technologies allowed for the establishment of sub-venues in different parts of Hong Kong, enabling more believers to attend simultaneously; attendance has at times exceeded 200,000. Later, multiple sub-venues began operating outside Hong Kong for simultaneous live streaming or rebroadcasting, allowing Chinese Christians worldwide to experience edification and revival. Since 2020, through God's grace, the meetings have been streamed live online with replays available afterward. Currently, global participation for this annual spiritual feast exceeds one million visits.
