Bible Preaching Contest 2025

On November 23 and 27, the “Bible Preaching Contest 2025” was held at the designated local churches of the Church of God across Korea. Organized by the Education Division of the Head Office, the event was designed to strengthen members’ faith through the word of God and to rekindle their passion for the gospel as the new year approaches. The main rounds for the adult male and young adult groups were held on November 23, followed by the adult female group on November 27. Local pastoral staff served as judges for the contest.

Representatives selected through preliminary rounds at each local church delivered their presentations in turn. Through the history and prophecies of the Bible, the presenters testified from diverse perspectives to the existence of God Elohim and the providence of salvation. As each presentation concluded with a confident proclamation, accompanied by on-screen writing that clearly explained the message, members responded with enthusiastic cheers and warm applause.

Following the final evaluation, an awards ceremony was held, during which representative pastoral staff from each Church Region presented prizes to the winners. Oh Jin-ho, a deacon from Yongin who received an award in the adult male group, shared, “As I prepared for the presentation, the love of Heavenly Mother, who has prepared everything for our salvation, deeply touched my heart once again. As a student guidance teacher, I will share not only knowledge of the Bible but also the love contained in God’s word.” Jo Young-ah, a deaconess from Seongnam and an award recipient in the adult female group, also reflected on her experience, saying with a smile, “I tried to deliver God’s teachings exactly as they are, with the heart of a guardian of the truth. As I studied the word at every moment in preparation for the contest, I gained confidence to share the truth with anyone I meet.”

Through this event, members once again reflected on the grace of God Elohim and the precious value of the truth of the new covenant. With renewed determination, they resolved to move forward even more diligently in 2026 to swiftly deliver these blessings to the eight billion people of the world.
