| Summary: | The concept of the missional church has been increasingly spread among the Korean Protestant churches and especially to those who are deeply concerned about the true nature of church and mission in the midst of the critical situation faced by the Korean Church. This article articulates the doctrine of the Trinity in relation to the concept of missio Dei. In terms of dealing with conversion and transformation of the church, it explains the understanding of the church and mission of the Korean Church that tends to be inclined to reduce salvation. In this sense, the Korean Church needs radical conversion and transformation to missio Dei. This article suggests some key factors of the Korean missional church movement: authentic worship, community and discipleship. It also explores various aspects and streams of the missional church movement in the Korean Church as it participates in the life of neighbors. It suggests ways in which the Korean Church can rediscover the nature of the church through authentic conversion and transformation to become the people of God who are called and sent into the world by the triune God. |
