Abstract

The world is rapidly changing and there have been various issues in the world that affect to world missions. One of them is Jasmine Revolution detonated in Tunisia in the year 2010. Afterward, a series of demonstration have occurred in many countries of Middle East and North Africa. They have not finished and ongoing movement. In addition, they are unexpected events. As a result,it is not easy to predict how it may turn out. The writer, however,will study what caused the demonstration in Middle East and North Africa and what is going on. And the writer will attempt to propose how Christian churches and workers react to Arab democratization movement. In fact, mission works in Islamic countries have not been fruitful. However, the researcher believes that it can be an opportunity to preach the gospel to Muslim people in the areas. The writer also expects to arise a kind of revival in many Arab countries through these movements. For this, Korean churches and missionaries should develop numerous effective mission strategies and cooperate each other. In addition, Korean churches need to exactly analyse what caused the movements and how they will react to these movements. First of all. Korean churches realize Arab Muslims' physical and spiritual needs and carefully reach out to them to preach the gospel. They should develop various strategies for reaching out to young adult group in many Muslim countries because they were pivotal figures for Arab demonstration movements. Also, Korean churches should utilize Social Network Service for effectively reaching out to Muslims. Furthermore, they need to pray for them dwelling in the areas, because they have never had any opportunity to hear the gospel. They are also God's people who need to hear the gospel. Korean churches should prepare for reaching out to Muslim people in Middle East and North Africa. The researcher assures that recent demonstration movement occurred in Middle East and North Africa is an opportunity that God provides us.
