After the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the Church of God was established on this land, and the church has experienced many ups and downs since then. As the past history shows, the church has had somany persecutions that we sometimes have to discuss the crisis of existence.
In some eras, just a single confession of faith in Jesus was subject to persecution, and in other eras, they were burned alive. At that time, persecutions were things that could shake the root of the church's faith, but the church gradually took root of the gospel. Through such a process, the church has grown internally and externally, and the influence of the gospel has gradually expanded to all countries. How was that possible? This was because the church was stayed strong in the trend and flow of the world despite such persecutions, and put all their focus only on the word of God.
We live in a flood-like era where if we even look up on the Internet a little bit, there are Christian books, videos, and Christian spiritual programs. However, just like when there is no water available for humans to drink during a flood era, it's similar in the trend and flow of this era in which we live in.
When you experience the small persecution you face in life, you see many churches and saints living without the power of faith, like a tree without its roots. What could have gone wrong? I think the church has lost its focus. As the images of living churches in history show, the church should focus on the living word of God. In that sense, sermons are like the heart of worship. Through the weekly sermon of worship, you can realize the power to overcome the world and the direction to move forward.
The purpose of this study is to study the impact of Tong preaching on youth ministry and to suggest alternatives on how the younger generation, who may be the most distant from the church in this era, can come back and fully recover and grow. And I applied this study to the youth department of the Sky Light Church, where I work. Over time, I investigated how this Tong preaching affects young people, and I tried to derive the results by electing young people to conduct surveys and interviews.
In conclusion, I realized that Tong preaching could be a stepping stone for young people to get closer to the word of God, letting them see the Bible from a broader perspective, and achieve growing their faith. Through this Tong preaching, I sincerely hope that it will be an opportunity for the younger generation everywhere to build the kingdom of God
