Pastoral Reflections

Dear RockSpring Church Family, Our revival services are now over, and I give thanks to God for His faithfulness throughout the week. All Glory and Honor belong first and foremost to God Most High! I also want to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to our entire leadership team, who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make this revival possible. Your faithful service has been a blessing to so many, and we are deeply grateful for each one of you. I am also deeply g

Dear RockSpring Church family! Over the past thirty years of ministry, one of the greatest privileges God has given me has been walking alongside families during the final moments of a loved one's earthly journey. Especially over the past decade, while serving as both a hospital chaplain and a local church pastor, I have stood beside hospital beds, officiated funerals, and cared for grieving families. Every funeral reminds me that sorrow and hope can coexist. There is genuine

Greetings to our RockSpring Church Family. Happy and Blessed 4th of July! This Fourth of July carries a special meaning. As our nation commemorates 250 years since the Declaration of Independence, we pause to give thanks for God's faithfulness throughout generations. For two and a half centuries, the United States has endured seasons of triumph and trial, prosperity and hardship, unity and division. Yet through every chapter of our history, the gracious hand of God has sustai

Dear Rock Spring Church Family, The World Cup has begun. Every four years, people around the world rally behind the nations they love. They celebrate victories, endure disappointments, and proudly wear the colors of their teams. For me, the World Cup is always a little unique. I was born in South Korea, raised in Canada, and now live in the United States as an American citizen. So when the World Cup comes around, I find myself cheering for all three nations. Some people ask “

Dear RockSpring Family! Have you been continuing in your daily Bible reading and meditation lately? I am currently reading through 1 Samuel and today I reached chapter 14. As I read this passage, I came across a scene that made my heart heavy. More than the story of one man's faith and courage, my attention was drawn to the tragic change taking place in another man's life. That man was Saul, the first king of Israel. Saul was not always this way. In the beginning, he was humb

Dear Church Family, When I was serving in Michigan, every month of May, our town’s five churches would gather together at the local cemetery for a Memorial Day worship service. Lutheran, Methodist, Missionary, Baptist, and Wesleyan churches came together as one body to honor and pray for the men and women who sacrificed their lives for this nation. Those moments remain deeply sacred in my heart. On that day, denominational lines, our theological doctrinal differences faded aw

During my seminary years, I served in an administrative pastoral role while overseeing the missions department. In those years, missions became a significant part of my life and ministry. Many times, I traveled on mission trips more than four times a year. I still remember one particular journey where I flew for over twenty hours and then endured another twenty-four hours by train just to reach a small village near the Pakistan border to serve the Uyghur people. Not long afte

Dear RockSpring Church Family, By God’s grace, and through your prayers, love, and care, I have now completed my third eye procedure today. The largest surgery took place last year when I unexpectedly suffered a retinal detachment. Earlier this year, I underwent a second procedure, but afterward a layer of tissue inside the eye tore, which required another laser procedure to repair and seal it properly. My vision has not yet fully recovered, but after another three to four we

Dear RockSpring Church Family, Although every Sunday is a precious and holy day in the presence of the Lord, this sunday was especially joyful and deeply meaningful for me as your pastor. This Sunday, eight members of RockSpring Church officially became registered church members after faithfully completing four weeks of membership training. Since we are still in transitional period, we were not able to establish every structure and process as fully as we hoped in the beginnin
