Otto Koning

Missionary to Indonesia

Overview

Whenever the name of Otto Koning is mentioned, those who have heard him speak break out with laughter. They are not laughing at Otto; they are laughing at their own human nature which he has an amazing gift to reveal. Otto and his wife, Carol, went to Irian Jaya to be missionaries. However, he kept getting angry at the natives for their irritating actions. During a furlough, he attended a Basic Youth Conflicts Seminar and learned the “secrets” of conquering his anger. Applying the principles upon his return, the natives were amazed. “Tuan (sir)," they said, "you have become a Christian!” The powerful stories he brings from the mission field as well as from his life in the States since then, are classic illustrations of how to apply principles of God’s way of life.
