Korean's worldview is heavily shaped by Confucianism that seeks cosmic harmony through well-ordered relationships. Individual acts typically are thought to have universal import. Thus one must ever evaluate one's role and duties lest one's own ambitions undermine the corporate psyche.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Korean's worldview is heavily shaped by Confucianism that seeks cosmic harmony through well-ordered relationships. Individual acts typically are thought to have universal import. Thus one must ever evaluate one's role and duties lest one's own ambitions undermine the corporate psyche.
520 $a Cosmic harmony is an attractive pursuit. The problem, though, is that Confucianism and Protestant Christianity are at odds with each other. For instance, Confucianism esteems <italic>we</italic>-ness. Korea's mainstream Protestantism, on the other hand, emphasizes <italic>individual</italic> election and salvation, and it scorns non-Protestant worldviews, including that of Confucianism. The result is a modern day faith where theology is individualistic, and praxis is self-serving. Regarding the latter, the Korean Protestant cosmos is populated largely with other “saved” individuals, thus making for a small world and an even smaller Korea.
520 $a As follows, I look at Korean communal anthropology. Here the focus is Confucianism. Confucianism consciously and otherwise regulates Korean's social interactions, which is why this is important relative to Korean Protestant theology.
520 $a Next I look at the educational philosophy of Korean Protestantism. This is where the social rift between Korean Protestantism and the larger Korean ethos becomes apparent. Although Koreans' worldview is communal, that of Korean Protestantism's is individualistic and is heavily shaped by Western ideology.
520 $a I then look at biblical anthropology to see whether it provides a model thus to conjoin the worldviews of individualism and communalism. I review the Hebrew Scriptures and Paul from a postcolonial feminist perspective.
520 $a I close with a pedagogical model, one that draws from communalism, individualism and biblical anthropology, and present a <italic>Korean Communal Person</italic> as ideal personhood on which to base Korean Protestant religious education. Here I present biblical storytelling as a tool for refraining soteriology communally. My goal is to conjoin Korean Protestantism's esteem for the Bible, with an awareness of how culture shapes and limits one's worldview, out of which can come a new hermeneutic. I use the biblical story of Hagar as a tool.
