"Examination Hell"
From [Photo]Test prayer:
The Korean SAT is coming up, the one time of the year other than Vesak (Buddha's Birthday) when the Buddhist temples are full. This exam, more than anything else, determines one's fate in Korea.
I have not noticed any upsurge in church attendance at this time of year. Perhaps Korean Christians are aware of the parable of the dishonest judge from yesterday's gospel reading: Luke 18:1-8.

Redeemed by Our Savior, I work out my salvation with fear and trembling in Pohang, South Korea, where I live with my wife, daughter, and son and teach English at a science and technology university. Baptized a Methodist and raised a Missouri Synod Lutheran in Buffalo, NY, I spent six years as a guest of the Anglican Communion before being received by the Grace of God into the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church on the Feast of Saint Andrew, my patron, anno domini 2002.
