Abstract

The Korean church has faithfully handled the evangelical missionary service so far. Such dedication also shines in the history of world missionary work. Today, however, the Korean church has lost its influence in Korean society. Especially, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it is having a difficult time in all areas of life, including economy, society, and culture. However, the church does not have a positive influence on society. In such a situation, this paper examines Johann Hinrich Wichern’s ‘Innere Mission’ with the history of German Diaconia, of which many previous studies have been done, from a missionary theology perspective finds the missionary meaning of Diaconia in this era of civilization, and discusses its value and importance.
