“Let’s Meet in Person More Often” – Pastor Young Joo Lee
This Wednesday at 10am., I met the Nepali Pastor Govinda for a one-on-one meditation seminar at a McDonald’s in Croydon. I translated the study material into English and shared the content from Week 1. Govinda participated very enthusiastically, and we enjoyed our time together so much that we lost track of time. During the week, […]
“When Life Feels Dry, Lean into the Church” – Pastor Young Joo Lee
On Thursday, I joined the Arise team in Croydon to encourage them. They had been doing door-to-door evangelism for three days, but on that day they had planned to do street evangelism. We headed towards the busy Tesco, set up a table with various gospel tracts, and began by singing worship songs. After that, we […]
“A Church Led by God” – Pastor Young Joo Lee
Looking back on my ministry, I can clearly see that there were times when I experienced a strong inner conviction. That conviction became a lasting passion, and as I followed it wholeheartedly, I often saw God bear good fruit. I say this cautiously, but I wonder if this is what it means to be led […]
“Beautiful bondage” – Pastor Hyungseok Jung
The word bondage is not usually used in a positive sense. In a democratic society, no one would willingly welcome restrictions on the rights and freedoms that every human being ought to enjoy. The idea of becoming someone’s servant or slave is especially disturbing in today’s world—something most people would rather not even imagine. Yet […]
“Power Comes When We Love” – Pastor Young Joo Lee
As you follow Jesus for a long time, you come to realize how great God is. And when you hear stories of people who have experienced His grace and power, a longing naturally arises within you. That is why, whenever there is a revival meeting or a gathering where people are said to experience the […]
“The essence of God’s refining process” – Pastor Young Joo Lee
In the latter part of the parable of the vine and the branches in John 15, verses 9 to 17, the core of what the Lord said was: “Remain in my love.” This love was the same deep love with which the Father loved the Son. But regarding how we can remain in such love, […]
“My ridiculous moral standards” – Pastor Hyunseok Chung
Our journey of faith begins with believing that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died a brutal death on the cross to forgive our sins. This is where many people may feel resistance toward the gospel. Even believers who are now living a life of faith are no exception. We may ask, “What exactly have […]
“The Beginning of Evangelism: A Heart of Compassion for Souls”- Pastor Wooil Park
This week, on May 21 (Thu) and 22 (Fri), I attended the ‘Billion Soul Harvest’ conference for two days. Stepping away from the busyness of daily life for a moment and being present at this spiritual gathering became a time of fresh restoration for me. Seeing so many people who are dedicating their lives to […]
“QT Seminar v2” – Pastor Youngjoo Lee
The second QT Seminar cohort is currently underway. The first cohort was held at a home during weekday mornings for adult members in South Wimbledon, while the Central group met mainly with young adults at Central GVC on Saturday mornings. A total of 30 people completed the course. This second cohort is focused primarily on […]
“Review of the Diaspora Mission Conference” – Pastor Youngjoo Lee
I arrived at LAX airport on the morning of April 30. An elder from Bethel Church drove us to the hotel in Irvine where I was able to check in and head straight to the conference venue, Bethel Church. More than 100 missionaries and pastors from six continents lined up in two from the entrance […]
