I am pleased to share with you that Developing a Strategy for Missions (co-authored with John Mark Terry) is now available in Korean.
When I served as a seminary professor at Southern Seminary from 2002-2012, I was both surprised and delighted to see the number of first generation Korean students at our school. I think, at one time, Koreans were the largest number of international students on campus. Their numbers at seminaries in the West is a small representation of what the Spirit has been doing in Korea.
The first Protestant church was planted in the country toward the end of the nineteenth century. In one century, the gospel not only spread rapidly but the Church started crossing cultures to make disciples elsewhere. According to Operation World, over 20,000 workers have been sent from the country to make it “the second-largest foreign-mission-sending nation on earth” (510).
It is my hope and prayer that with such a missionary force coming from this country, this book may be of assistance to many of our brothers and sisters.
I greatly appreciate Baker Publishing Group for having the strategic vision of getting this book into this important language.
If you know of a Korean who would benefit from this work, I would be honored if you would share this book with them.
Of course, the English version is still available.
