In 1984, he attended the Urbana ’84 mission conference with his college friends. On the last day, Billy Graham delivered a sermon about God’s mission to an audience of fifteen thousand college students. After the sermon concluded, he invited those interested in becoming missionaries to stand up. Approximately ten thousand people rose, and he was among them. That day marked his decision to dedicate his life to spreading the gospel. However, it wasn’t until 2007 that he was officially commissioned as a cross-cultural missionary and sent to Tibet by the church he found and pastored for five years.

While in the field, he witnessed many missionaries who were struggling with failure mentality. Those experiences let him to serve the missionaries. Following year, SRC was established to collaborate with Tibetan missionaries and to support workers from North Korea and Palestine. Eventually, the mission community launched a full-fledged sending mission organization focused on conflict zones, partnering with veteran missionaries from Southeast Asia.

Now, twenty years into this journey, he is in his final chapter of missionary work. He passed the leadership baton to an interim leadership, and his goal now is to finish well by continuing to advocate for the cause of God’s mission for the broken world.
