In obedience to this calling, we seek to help believers and churches in the Savannah area understand the spiritual and humanitarian reality of North Korea, inviting them to join us in united prayer, intercession, and partnership in Godâs greater mission for healing, freedom, and future revival. We also care deeply for North Korean brothers and sisters who have fled the regime, praying for their protection, healing, and restoration as they seek freedom and a new life.

What We Preach at God-Pleasing Chruch of Savannah
We donât compromiseâwe cling to what is true.
1. Christ Crucified, Not Christ Customized -- "But we preach Christ crucified..." (1 Corinthians 1:23)
We boldly proclaim the gospel of the crossânot a feel-good version of Christ shaped around human desires. Our message is not about enhancing self-esteem or achieving personal goals. Itâs about surrender, repentance, and dying to self. True transformation comes when we are crucified with Christ and raised into new lifeânot when we try to fit Jesus into our preferences.
2. Righteousness Over Riches -- "...who think that godliness is a means to financial gain." (1 Timothy 6:5)
In a culture obsessed with prosperity and success, we preach a gospel that prioritizes holiness and eternity. Faith isnât a formula to unlock material blessingsâitâs the path to eternal life and right standing before God. Jesus didnât go to the cross to boost our bank accounts; He went to make us righteous before a holy God.
3. The Truth About Eternity -- "Fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell." (Matthew 10:28)
We speak plainly about eternal realities. Hell is not a metaphor, and judgment is not optional. Out of love and reverence for God, we preach the full counsel of Scriptureâboth the hope of salvation and the warning of wrath. The gospel is urgent because eternity is real.
4. Holiness Matters -- "...say âNoâ to ungodliness and worldly passions..." (Titus 2:12)
Holiness is not outdated, and sin is not entertainment. God calls His people to live set-apart livesânot conformed to the world, but transformed by His Spirit. We refuse to downplay sin or excuse compromise in the name of relevance. Instead, we pursue purity, reverence, and the fruit of righteousness.
5. Worship in Spirit and Truth -- "True worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth..." (John 4:23â24)
Worship isnât about style, performance, or personal preference. Itâs about God. Our services are marked by reverence, Scripture-saturated songs, and hearts that long for His gloryânot applause. We gather to honor Him, to be shaped by truth, and to respond in awe to His presence.
6. Know the Real Enemy -- "Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion..." (1 Peter 5:8)
We donât pretend evil is merely symbolic or abstractâwe name our enemy clearly: the devil, Satan. He is real, active, and strategic in his opposition to Godâs people. But we are not defenseless. Through Scripture, prayer, and the armor of God, we are equipped to stand firm, resist his schemes, and guard what matters most: our faith, our families, and our calling. At this church, we train to fight the good fightânot passively, but spiritually alert.
7. Biblical Clarity in a Confused Culture -- "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind..." (Romans 12:2)
We are called to see the world through Godâs lens, not through cultural filters. In an age of misinformation, moral compromise, and political tension, we preach a gospel that gives spiritual discernment. Our goal isnât to be politically correctâitâs to be biblically faithful. We help believers understand world events, ideologies, and cultural shifts through the truth of Scriptureâso they wonât just react, but respond with wisdom, courage, and clarity.
Pastor Robin Kim
Currently đ¤ Serving as Pastor of God Pleasing Church of Savannah since November 2025 đServing as an ESL Instructor at Savannah Technical College since January 2026
âWhatever gain I had, I counted as loss for the sake of Christâ
Philippians 3:7
âWhatever gain I had, I counted as loss for the sake of Christâ
Philippians 3:7
During his college years, Robin Kim encountered the Lord through Campus Crusade for Christ (now Cru) and served as a small group leader. In his senior year, he sensed Godâs call to ministry following the sudden passing of his fatherâa moment that awakened in him a desire to pursue what truly mattered for eternity. However, after graduation, he became deeply immersed in his English education business and spent nearly seven years running from that call, believing he could support the Kingdom financially instead. In 2007, a serious bicycle accident that fractured his left upper arm became a decisive turning point through which the Lord redirected his path. In 2008, Robin finally surrendered to Godâs call and enrolled at Torch Trinity Seminary in Seoul, South Korea, where he actively served in worship and childrenâs ministries at Seoul Onnuri Church (EM), VCF (EM), and the Burning Lamp Ministry (EM).
In 2011, Robin moved to the United States and completed both a Master of Divinity (M.Div.) and a Masterâs degree in Counseling at Biblical Seminary in Pennsylvania. While pursuing his degrees, he gained diverse ministry and counseling experience across the greater Philadelphia areaâserving as Youth Pastor at Korean Peniel Church (2011â2012), Associate Pastor and Youth Pastor at Korean Edification Church (2012â2014), and Chaplain Intern at Elm Terrace Gardens (2014â2015). From 2015 to 2016, he continued in senior care ministry as Pastoral Care Assistant at Living Branches, while also working as a Counselor Intern at Souderton Vantage Academy, where he supported teenagers through therapeutic, psychological, and emotional care. From 2015 to 2020, Robin served as the College and Young Adult Pastor at Bethel Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia, followed by his role as Youth Pastor at Ambler Presbyterian Church (2020â2021).
Robin served as a U.S. Army Chaplain from October 2019 to June 2025, faithfully ministering to young American Soldiers and their families with gospel-centered counsel and spiritual care. His heart was to serve the military community with compassion and truthâfor the glory of God and the advance of His Kingdom. During this season, God stirred in him a vision for church planting, which he has pursued through prayerful discernment and preparation. Since relocating to Georgia due to military service, Robin has continued to proclaim Godâs Word as a guest preaching pastor at local congregations, including Savannah First Korean Presbyterian Church (2021â2024), The First Korean Baptist Church of Hinesville (2025) and Open Korean Presbyterian Church of Hinesville (2025). He currently serves as the pastor of God-Pleasing Church of Savannah(launched in November 2025), embracing this new season with gratitude and expectation for Godâs work. In addition, he started serving as an ESL instructor at Savannah Technical College in January 2026, where he teaches and empowers adult English learners.

Awakening Savannah for North Korea.
A brief call for believers in Savannah to understand North Koreaâs suffering and join in prayer for freedom and revival.
Why North Korea?
North Korea remains one of the most closed and persecuted nations in the world. Millions live without basic human rights, freedom of belief, or access to the gospel. Countless believers suffer imprisonment, torture, and death for their faith. This is not distant newsâit is a present, ongoing humanitarian and spiritual crisis. As followers of Christ, we are called to see, to understand, and to respond with compassion and truth.
The Reality of Persecution
In North Korea, Christianity is considered a threat to the regime. Believers worship in secret, families are torn apart, and entire generations grow up without ever hearing the name of Jesus. Many risk their lives to escape, and many more perish in the attempt. These are our brothers and sisters who flee in search of true freedom. Their suffering calls us to prayer, awareness, and faithful intercession.
Our Calling as a Church
God-Pleasing Church of Savannah believes this burden is not for us alone. We are called to awaken local churches in the Savannah areaâto help believers understand what is truly happening in North Korea and to join together in prayer for Godâs justice, mercy, and restoration. We long to see the body of Christ in Savannah rise with one heart for the people of North Korea, standing in unity for healing, freedom, and future revival. We are now preparing to launch this prayer movement in our region, inviting churches and believers to join us in this Godâgiven mission.
Saturday Gospel Outreach & Prayer
GodâPleasing Church of Savannah is actively engaging in a weekly outreach and prayer gathering in the heart of our city. Each Saturday, we go out to share the gospel, connect with our neighbors, and raise awareness about the reality faced by the people of North Korea with clarity, compassion, and spiritual urgency. While Saturday is focused on gospel outreach, our church also gathers every Friday evening for Friday Praise & Prayer Nightâa dedicated time of worship, intercession, and studying the Book of James. Through these weekly rhythms of prayer and outreach, we seek to stand faithfully before God for our city, our nation, and the people of North Korea. This weekly outreach is already underway. Every Saturday at 10 AM, we meet near the Forsyth Park fountain with local believers who share the same heart for evangelism and intercession. Together, we share the good news of Jesus, pray for those who are suffering, and help our community understand what is truly happening inside North Korea. We stand in faith, believing that God will bring freedom, healing, and revival. Time: Every Saturday, 10 AM Place: Near the Forsyth Park fountain, Savannah
