In this book Sunggu Yang proposes five socio-ecclesial codes as
unique faith fundamentals of Korean American Christianity. Drawing
from rigorous research and years of ecclesial experience, Yang
names the codes as follows: the Wilderness Pilgrimage code, the
Diasporic Mission Code, the Confucian Egalitarian code, the
Buddhist Shamanistic code, and the Pentecostal Liberation code.
These five codes, he asserts, help Korean Americans sustain their
lives, culture, faith, and evangelical mission as aliens or
"pilgrims" in the American "wilderness." Yang outlines how his five
proposed codes serve as liberative and prophetic mechanisms of
faith through which Korean Americans can contribute to racial
harmony and cultural diversity in North America. In this sense,
Korean American Christianity-its theology and spirituality-works
not only on behalf of Korean Americans, but also for the sake of
all Americans. Yang shows how the Korean American pulpit is the
locus where these five codes appear most vividly.
