Poland is South Korea's largest economic partner in Eastern Europe, and since establishing diplomatic ties some 24 years ago, they have seen a remarkable development of relations.

Originally, "The Message of the Cross" was published in 2002 in Korean, and has since been translated into 52 languages, (including Polish) and is being distributed in Asia, North America, South America, Africa, Oceania and Europe.

Dr. Lee writes in the book, "Sometimes you want to be alone, but may be happier at times you are with a likeminded friend who can share his or her love with you. Likewise, God created man in His image because He wants to exchange love with someone. He is cultivating human spirits on this earth because He wants true children who can understand His heart and love Him from their hearts."

The message of his book has been already preached in the many crusades conducted by Dr. Lee, including those in European countries like Russia, Germany and Estonia.

As well as the Polish edition, European publishers have also included Destiny Image Europe (Italy) and Baruch Books (Ukraine), both of whom have published the book and are distributing it in both in English and Russian.

Furthermore, Dr. Lee's autobiography "My Life, My Faith (1)" - the e-Book edition in Polish (ISBN: 9788975577246) -- and his 173 titles in 33 languages, are also available through the iBookstore.

Dr. Jaerock Lee is the senior pastor of Manmin Central Church in Seoul, South Korea, which has more than 120,000 members, and has authored many evangelical Christian books.

He has been named as one of the 10 most influential Christian leaders by Christian Telegraph and In Victory, both in 2009 and 2010.

In 2007, 88.4% of the Polish population belonged to the Catholic Church. Though rates of religious observance are lower, Poland remains one of the most devoutly religious countries in Europe.

Members of Protestant churches include about 77,500 in the largest Evangelical-Augsburg Church, and a similar number in smaller Pentecostal and Evangelical churches.
