Jung Myung Seok Archive

Jung Myung Seok was born on March 16, 1945 and was the third eldest of seven children. He was born in the mountain valley of Wolmyeongdong. It was a dreadful place for him. Even though he wanted to farm, there was not enough land. Even though he worked to the point his body felt like collapsing, he could not fill his empty stomach. He grew up suffering.

Suffering from hunger in the midst of a dreadful poverty, Jung Myung Seok began his life of faith and started to believe in God at the beckoning of his eldest brother. As a result, he has become a world renown pastor who delivers messages to over 50 nations across the world.

In this archives, you can read his messages, particularly in relation to Wolmyeongdong and its backstory. Although he used to hate Wolmyeongdong because of how barren it was, Wolmyeongdong is now a place God uses to give inspiration to him and many people.

  • According to God’s Instructions

    Even if rocks are erected on top of dirt, if the ground is even, then the rocks will never fall. However, rocks that are erected on top of an angle will never be able to stand because the dirt will eventually slip and slide.

  • Learn While Observing

    I am always in the process of getting ready and preparing before I do anything. Whenever I place a boulder, I ask God whether He likes the way the boulder has been placed. Since God is always watching, I can work with perfection. I push myself to do my best whenever I place a boulder. It’s to the point where I can’t do any better. If someone asked me to take the boulders out and reposition them, I wouldn’t be able to place them any better.

  • There Are No Downsides to Being Alert

    There have been many times when I have seen people trip over nothing on flat ground. Even for me, there was one occasion when I tripped and fell on the ground even though I am used to playing soccer and using my legs. At that time, I fell over because I tripped over another member. However, people sprain themselves even while walking on level ground. They trip because their mind is occupied by something else.
