One of the first things Eric Foley, the co-founder of Seoul USA, learned about the North Korean underground church is that it is not a group to be pitied. About ten years ago Foley asked a member of the underground church how he could pray for them. He recalls the North Korean’s response: ‘You, pray for us? We pray for you… because South Korean and American churches believe challenges in the Christian faith are solved by money, freedom, and politics. It’s only when all you have is God do you realise God is all you need.’
