Prescription of Civilization Wansoo Kim

In Prescription of Civilization, bestselling Korean poet Wansoo Kim explores the meaning of the Christian faith in the modern world. His work displays courage and faith. In the introduction, he tells the story of his painful illness and several suicide attempts to end his suffering. He finds hope in a local community church with the message of Jesus Christ. Kim then sees Christianity as the true hope for a lost humanity, a humanity drowning in its own confusion and fear. The book covers themes ranging from science, the role of art and culture in a happy life, and the political life of South and North Korea. This collection is an important document to testify to the healing powers of Jesus Christ and the hope of redemption through prayer and commitment to faith.
