God’s love, which is stronger than death, is causing me to continue walking the path of the mission the Lord has given me (John 6:1–15).

God’s love, which is stronger than death, is causing me to continue walking the path of the mission the Lord has given me (John 6:1–15).             “At that very time some Pharisees came and said to Him, ‘Leave this place and go somewhere else. Herod wants to kill You.’   He replied, ‘Go tell that fox, “I will keep driving out demons and healing people today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will reach My goal.”   In any case, I must press on today and tomorrow and the next day—for surely no prophet can die outside Jerusalem!   Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing.   Look, your house is left to you desolate.   I tell you, you will not see Me again until you say, “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord” (Luke 13:31–35).     ...

Moses (3) (Acts 7:36-38)

  Moses (3)           [Acts 7:36-38]     The leadership of Pastor Nakjoong Choi at Sunrise Church is intriguing: A leader is like a conductor of an orchestra.   He must harmonize the diverse individuals in the world to become one.   They are not one in uniformity, but one in harmonizing diversity.   Nothing different is wrong.   A spiritual leader is someone who, regardless of age, gender, social status, or wealth, brings people together in unity through the Holy Spirit.   Our society needs efforts to acknowledge and achieve harmony in diversity.   “Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace” (Eph. 4:3) (Internet).   I believe this is a fitting definition of leadership for our church.   It is the responsibility of both myself and our church leaders to harmonize Korean ministry, English ministry, and Hispanic ministry brothers and sisters in Christ, making t...

Moses (2) (Acts 7:30-35)

  Moses (2)       [Acts 7:30-35]     Last year, TIME magazine selected the 100 most influential people in the United States, and among them, the first place was not Bill Gates, not former President Clinton, nor President Bush.   It was reported to be a female talk show host named Oprah Winfrey.   The viewership of her program averages over 10 million, and Americans are moved by her every word.   If she says, ‘I visited a poor orphanage and they need help’ for just 10 seconds, the next day, tens of billions in donations arrive at that orphanage.   If she says, ‘I read this book,’ the book becomes a bestseller in the U.S. the next day.   The answer to her influence lies in the four life philosophies mentioned in her autobiography, ‘This Is My Mission’:   (1)     Having more than others is not a blessing, but a mission. (2)     If there is pain greater than others, it is not suff...

Moses (1) (Acts 7:17-29)

  Moses (1)       [Acts 7:17-29]       In 2004, during the 9th Spiritual Retreat of the Pastors' Council for Church Renewal (PCCR), Pastor Han-heum Ok, who was the chairman of the PCCR, stated: ‘In the 1910s to 1930s, the Korean church experienced a tremendous revival, with the congregation growing from a few thousand to 300,000.   The focus of that revival was repentance.   People heard the word of God, repented, and their lives were transformed.   Then, from the late 1950s to the mid-1980s, the congregation, which was only around 300,000, suddenly reached 10 million.   The theme of this revival was blessing.   It was prosperous.   However, it was mentioned that the allure of prosperity and blessing led to the revival of millions, but ultimately played a role in making the church more secularized and corrupt, pointing out the causes of the current crisis in the Korean church’ (Internet).   Pastor Ok e...
