A desperate cry to an age that has lost the gospel and peace! About a missionary life of worship in the place where we are called.

This book, which connects the core of the gospel, which can either cause the church to rise or fall, to the calling of pastors, begins with a confession that he almost lived as a professional pastor.
The author, who has lectured on the essence of the gospel from Genesis to Revelation for many years, weaves together the past, which was the process of justification and sanctification, into the Word and weaves it into a message about missionary life.


Pastor Coupang guides us through who he is, why we should live as residents rather than settlers, and what it means to live a life of worship in the place where God has called us.
It is a desperate cry for the lost gospel and lost peace.
It is a mirror that reflects the historicity of the Bible with insight that delves head-on into the gospel and discipleship.

Those who have received God's calling must fulfill the mission given to them in their respective positions in keeping with the times.
The problem of this calling corresponds to ‘my problem’ before God.
