About this book
When British missionary David Adeney reached China in 1934, Mao Zedong was just beginning his Long March. Fifteen years later, Mao's armies had driven Chiang Kai - shek's forces from the mainland and China was under his control.
The missionaries had to leave, and the churches faced enormous difficulties, as ten tumultuous years of the Cultural Revolution, in particular, threatened ancient tradition and new-found Christian faith alike. Yet even conservative estimates indicate that the churches have grown more than tenfold since 1949.
What is happening in China today? How are the churches facing the strain? China: The Church's long March describes God's mighty acts in China, and the opportunities facing his people there. Carefully researched, and illumined by long experience, this is a comprehensive examination of Christians in China today.
