Unity Lost - Unity to be Regained in Korean Presbyterianism: A History of Divisions in Korean Presbyterianism and the Role of the Means of Grace: v. 553 (European University Studies) - Softcover
Can the causes of the divisions of the Presbyterian Church in Korea be identified? The author goes back to the roots in mission history and in North American Presbyterian controversies. The Japanese Shinto pressure adds to the problems. The result is a history of divisions. Up to now researchers have looked for non-theological factors as causes. The author takes a radical look, where radical means going to the root, i.e. the life giving power centre of the church. He describes the role of preaching and the way the sacraments are used - starting from the conviction that the means of grace are the centre of any true church.

Review:
-Mr Hee-Mo Yim's book is a good effort to set forth the history of the Korean church in relation to the divisions among the churches, combined with new ideas for realizing church unity through the sacraments.- (ChangBok Chung, The Ecumenical Review)
