Dare 2 Share Korea

Posted on Friday 23 May 2008 by Greg @ 6:28 am
Filed under: Rants

God opened a door so wide that if we didn’t walk through it we would have been disobedient to his Spirit. So we walked through it. It is the door to all of Asia. It is the door to world-wide missions and ministry. It is the door into the churches of South Korea.

Dare 2 Share Korea is becoming a reality.

Our good friends Mr. and Mrs. Foley at Seoul USA are leading the charge to make this all happen. Dare 2 Share Korean staff have already been hired and a Dare 2 Share conference is being planned in the near future.

What’s really great is that we have been training our Korean brothers and sisters in the principles we operate by and they are actually going to do the contextualizing and actual training. We are not going to try to pretend we know how to reach Korean teenagers. But what we are going to do is train our Korean fellow Dare 2 Shareites in the “above culture” principles that work with humans in general. Our Asian compadres will contextualize all of these principles and all of our stuff into Korean.

By the way they have had to coin their own term for teenager (since there is not a word for “teenager” in the Korean language). That word is “paranee” (par-ah-knee) which means “blue” or “horizon” or “revolution”. It has to do with the sky, with hope and change on the horizon. These Korean teenagers are the blue generation, who God is going to use to revolutionize everything.

You may be thinking “I thought that South Korea was the Christian capital of Asia?” You’d be right. The churches there are some of the biggest in the world. They are vibrant in prayer and global missions. And they are losing their young as fast as we are in America.

It’s time to raise up an army of on-fire teenagers in Korea and America who will set the pace for revival and transform their culture for Jesus by reaching every teenager they know with the message and mission of Jesus. It’s time to go global, not with Dare 2 Share the organization but with the principles we run by. To take a look at these principles go back and watch our first podcasts under the section “Ministry to the 10th power” section on Dare 2 Share Uncensored.

Pray for our Korean brothers and sisters as they are used of God to launch D2S Korea in a big way for the glory of Jesus!

Signed, Greg Stier

    • That is amazing! God is really working through the D2S ministry. It’s cool to me that you say that it’s not the D2S organization itself going global, but the principles behind the ministry. It’s so awesome to me that with all you’ve done and accomplished, you’re not prideful about it. You always give all the glory to God, not to D2S. Keep shining for Him!

    • Praise God! I’m excited to see what God’s going to do through D2S and all. Must be a little scary though.
      I was also wondering if you could answer a question for me? What is your take, your view/ experience on theological/evangelical/atheistic debate? Have you known anyone who was brought to Christ by reason? I’m just wondering what your view and experience is with debates.

    • Hey Gary, good question. I think reason has to be involved to a greater or lesser extent with every conversion. There is information that needs to be understood (reason), accepted (reason) and believed (faith). I’m a firm believer that apologetics, properly used, still have a big place in postmodern youth ministry. Teenagers are a strange combination of the rational, the relational and hormones. Thanks for asking!
