CCF's central future-focused work

A permanent virtual museum for the world. A world-class physical museum for Seoul's future.

Seoul Bible Museum is CCF's public museum program. CCF is building the integrated virtual museum as a permanent worldwide museum and ministry while launching a separate, responsible ten-year path toward a physical museum in Seoul.

The integrated virtual museum

The website is not a waiting room. It is a permanent public home.

The virtual museum brings together historical objects and records, careful research, bilingual interpretation, and guided educational pathways. It is being developed to include interviews and personal stories after appropriate participant protections and editorial procedures are in place. It can grow continuously, welcome visitors anywhere, and remain a worldwide source and ministry after a physical museum opens. Its content, trust, relationships, and audience can also help make the physical museum possible.

Question 1

How did we receive the Bible?

Trace the people, languages, routes, printing, translation, sacrifice, and cooperation through which the Bible reached Korea and continued across borders.

Question 2

How has the Bible influenced Korea and our lives?

Explore its relationship with Hangul, education, medicine, ethics, public life, service, churches, mission, families, and individual lives—with evidence and appropriate context.

Question 3

What does the Bible mean to us?

Listen to many voices and consider what the Bible means to a person, family, community, church, country, and changing generation.

A museum designed to grow

CCF will continue adding researched exhibits, digital objects and records, Korean and English interpretation, and educational resources as material can be documented and presented responsibly. Interviews and contributed stories will be added only after the necessary participant protections and editorial procedures are complete.

Ten-year direction

A physical museum worthy of public trust

The goal is a world-class museum in Seoul: rigorous in scholarship, professional in stewardship, welcoming across backgrounds, clear about faith and history, and able to place Korea's Bible story in Asian and global context.
