Korean conference discusses missionary approach to suicide prevention, as country wrestles with highest suicide rate among OECD

A recent mission conference in South Korea highlighted the issue of suicide prevention as a missiological concern amid a suicide rate more than twice the average among OECD countries. A missiologist professor argued that suicide should no longer be regarded solely as an individualized issue but something that affects society as a whole. And he believes that the Christian perspective of building God’s kingdom could help overcome the prevalent "culture of death".
