임마누엘 이승만

We are indebted to freedom.

God established this nation through Syngman Rhee,

and preserved that freedom through the sacrifices of 22 nations during the Korean War.

The freedom we enjoy today did not come for free.

"Immanuel Syngman Rhee" is a 52-week Christian Devotional app that helps us remember that providence and discover our calling as indebted to freedom.

■ 52 Weeks Walking in the Life of Syngman Rhee

A descendant of fallen royalty born in Pyeongsan, Hwanghae Province;

15 years of classical Chinese studies that crumbled overnight due to the abolition of the civil service examination system;

The prison he entered after being sentenced to life imprisonment at the age of 24;

The God he met on the floor of that prison—

Syngman Rhee's life is not merely the story of an independence activist.

It is a story about how God's providence shaped a nation through one man.

For 52 weeks, we walk that path together.
