An aficionado of people, a connoisseur of the heart, a master craftsman of hope–Pastor Ock Soo Park has been changing lives since 1962 through the Word of God and a deep exploration of spiritual life and human behavior. Park has leveraged his 55+ years of global mission work, individual/relationship counseling, youth development, prison outreach, and fundamentalist Gospel evangelism to author over 50 sermon and self-development books. These publications have transformed lives, built faith, and turned into go-to tools for church leaders and educators alike.
Most recently, Pastor Park has successfully led Good News Mission through COVID-19, innovating gospel evangelism online—the Mission is now a model for modern churches everywhere. Through his direction, Good News Mission service and fellowship formats have become nationally heralded as benchmarks for compliant and effective church operations. Pastor Park’s sermons hit a major milestone in May of 2020 with the Online Bible Seminar—800 million people around the world were reached via a wide variety of traditional and digital media channels.
His latest global initiative is called Christian Leaders Fellowship (CLF). CLF goes beyond denominational, regional, and cultural barriers to assemble men and women in the ministry with the heart of God through His Word. With his Christian leadership training experience, Pastor Park has led the CLF to engage 200,000+ pastors and church leaders around the world.
Pastor Park is recognized by national governments for his spirit-first approach to youth development—he holds the title of Spiritual Advisor to several Presidents and former heads of state. He continues to explore the human heart across several platforms including his youth organization called International Youth Fellowship, his Christian internet broadcasting system Good News TV, and his global advancement program Ministers of Youth World Forum. Park’s goal is to help each person he meets discover the world of their own heart and a clear path to their future.
Pastor Park embodies the core aspects that define a master craftsman: care, passion, hands-on experience, relentlessness, and a heart to share knowledge and wisdom with others. His impact is undeniable—strong mindsets, unwavering hope, and countless testimonies of the grace of God.
