AB - Since the early missionary period, Korea has a history of brilliant Protestant social welfare tradition to this day and has carried out various community service activities. Nevertheless, the quantitative growth of Protestantism began to decline in the 1990s and public trust from the general population fell sharply with it. In this regard, Korean Protestantism should establish the essential mission of the Church and Christians once again. For this purpose, when examining the role of Christian social work in academic, theological, and practical sense, it is necessary to consider the history of Christian social welfare and the need to find a new direction for the future. Through world history, Christianity has played an important social role in solving social problems and fulfilling the mission of the Gospel. Also, a number of professional and social welfare programs have evolved and developed the efforts of the Christian church in modern Western society. The concepts of globalization and neo-liberalism are emerging and emphasizing the theory of ‘communities and sharing economy.’ Korean Christianity and the Church must begin to incorporate these new concepts into their social work while keeping in mind the traditions of the past. This article suggests a new direction by emphasizing the core concept of the Christian tradition, Community, Korean Christian social welfare.
