[November 4, 2025] – Survey results have been released indicating that the “Zion Christian Mission Center,” the free Bible education institution of the Shincheonji Church of Jesus headquartered in South Korea, is driving practical and positive changes in the lives of its graduates.

 

 

Shincheonji Church of Jesus conducted an in-depth survey from October 17 to 25, targeting 1,285 students awaiting graduation. The results showed that 97.9% of respondents were “satisfied with the changes in their lives after completing the education course,” proving that the center’s curriculum contributes to the formation of individual values.

 

 

■ Psychological Stability and Restoration of Life’s Purpose… Over Half Respond with “Inner Peace”

 

According to the survey results, the most significant change experienced by graduates through the education (multiple responses allowed) was ▲Inner peace and stability (50.7%). Psychological healing effects were particularly prominent across all age groups, including those in their 20s who felt anxiety about the future and those in their 70s seeking a renewed attachment to life.

 

This was followed by ▲Spiritual growth and deepening of faith (46.7%), ▲Setting clear life goals and direction (42%), and ▲Formation of positive values (41.2%). Respondents noted that through correct biblical knowledge and realization, their previously vague faith was replaced by the disappearance of life's emptiness, along with improvements in interpersonal relationships and stress management abilities.

 

 

■ Transcending Religious Barriers… 57% of Graduates were “Non-religious”

 

A notable point is that 57% of the current graduates were previously “irreligious” individuals with no prior religious affiliation. This suggests that the education provided by the Zion Christian Mission Center goes beyond simply delivering religious doctrine and provides a standard for establishing life values. One graduate stated, “I thought it was just a simple Bible lecture, but it became a turning point for me to reflect on my entire life and establish correct values.”

 

 

■ High Level of Trust in Faculty and Educational Quality

 

Satisfaction with the education course itself was also very high. 99.6% of respondents answered that it was a “great help in understanding the Bible and establishing correct faith,” and satisfaction regarding the expertise of the faculty and the level of lectures reached 94.5%, including 73.3% who were “very satisfied.”

 

 

A representative of Shincheonji Church of Jesus explained, “The course at the Zion Christian Mission Center helps individuals find meaning in their own lives as well as in their faith through correct biblical knowledge and realization.” The representative added, “Through the 116th graduation ceremony held at the Shincheonji Cheongju Church on the 2nd, we plan to spread a positive influence to both individuals and society, taking ‘qualitative maturity and the restoration of the essence of the Word’ as our core values.”
