Dr Hee-Young Lee became the first Korean student to obtain a doctorate degree at the University of the Free State’s (UFS) Department of Ecclesiology during the recent autumn graduation ceremony. Dr Lee researched the well-known South African theologist, Rev Andrew Murray. Rev Murray’s theology made an impact in the South Korean church history since its early days. Dr Lee is an assistant pastor at a Presbyterian congregation in South Korea and is also a part-time lecturer in church history at the Baesuk Theological Centre in Seoul. Here with Dr Lee (right) is Prof. Dolf Britz, promoter of Dr Lee from the UFS Department of Ecclesiology.
