These values and groups are minorities in Korean society as well as victims of globalization. Korean society and churches must seek to discover how the different values and groups can coexist peacefully and fruitfully in the globalization of Korean society. Although Christian mission in Korea has actively transformed itself in order to grapple with the new situation, new agendas demand additional theological and missionary endeavors, including a more critical and theological examination of globalization itself, and, at the same time, renewed missionary efforts to promote crosscultural communication and to overcome prejudices. |
