James Choung’s innovative, three-minute presentation of the Gospel rapidly spread into the blogosphere and onto the pages of his watershed book, True Story: A Christianity Worth Believing In (IVP). Choung, a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, now serves as Divisional Director of InterVarsity Christian Fellowship in San Diego and is a Faculty Associate at Bethel Seminary San Diego where he teaches on missional leadership development and evangelism. Choung was on the pastoral staff of an urban church plant and at a megachurch in Seoul, Korea. He likes to travel with his wife, tease his son, play board games with his buddies and hit some jazzy chords on the keys.
