“Are you reading the Bible diligently?” – Pastor Young Joo Lee
They say that there are hundreds of billions, or even trillions, of planets like Earth in the universe. It is truly astonishing to think that God created the vast universe and all those planets by His Word. It is beyond comprehension that this great God sent His own Son to Earth, a tiny speck in […]
“My trip to Germany” – Pastor Young Joo Lee
From 3rd October (Thu) to 5th October (Sun), I delivered the word of God five times at the youth retreat of Hanmaum Church, Frankfurt, Germany and finally at their Sunday service. I shared the famous ‘Sermon on the Mount’ from Matthew 5-7 within the six sermons. Although I had prepared the main points to deliver […]
“God’s Grace Encountered in Weakness” – Pastor Juyoung Park
With the start of the new school semester, I’ve been visiting the middle and high school students after they finish school. I’m not a particularly eloquent person, so I always worry about what to talk about when meeting the kids, and because of that, I think I’ve prayed more. But God always brings unexpected moments […]
“The Foundation for Our Recovery” – Pastor Young Joo Lee
“Therefore, say to the house of Israel, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: It is not for your sake, people of Israel, that I am going to do these things, but for the sake of my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations where you have gone. I will show the holiness […]
“Heaven: 100 questions, 1 answer” – Pastor Young Joo Lee
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever. Give thanks to the God of gods, for his steadfast love endures forever. Give thanks to the Lord of lords, for his steadfast love endures forever; to him who alone does great wonders, for his steadfast love endures forever; to […]
“About Repentance” – Pastor Young Joo Lee
Recently God has taught me a lot about repentance; repentance should be positive and active. What it means to be positive is to have hope that when you repent, you will be restored. Similarly to repentance, regret also allows one to reflect on wrong doings and have a heart not to do it again. However, […]
“Theological Reading of the Bible” – Pastor Young Joo Lee
Although I am a pastor, I am embarrassed to admit that my Bible reading is still inconsistent. So, when I see people who read the Bible diligently every day, I feel humbled. Despite the fact that when I first believed in Jesus during my first year in college, I was most passionate about reading, learning, […]
“Arise: an opportunity to have deep conversations whilst evangelizing.” – Eunyoung Lin (Pastor Juyoung Park)
Although it was difficult for me due to the many rejections we came across during Arise, I am thankful to the Lord for allowing me to experience meaningful encounters and enjoyable fellowship with believers that went beyond that. After three days of evangelism training, we headed to City Hill Church, which hosted us. From the […]
“To Live as an Evangelist in my Daily Life” – Yejin Shin
This year’s Arise program was my second time participating in Arise. Around this time last year, after being offered a role of cell leader, I impulsively signed up because I wanted to gain courage to evangelise. Despite the challenges of door-to-door evangelism, I found myself determined to do it again next year. However, after focusing […]
“Changing our bible study book from this November” – Pastor Young Joo Lee
One of the reasons I believe in Jesus is because it is mostly rational. Of course, it is different from the theory of rationalism, which regards human reason as absolute. It amuses me to think that the existence of the great God who created us needs to be explained entirely through human reason. On the […]
