The Facts about the Church in China

Whether one is a busy international executive or simply a diligent observer of world events trying to stay informed, it is natural to look for "handles" to help grasp what is happening around the globe. This is no less true for China, particularly for China's church. In a desire to achieve some closure in understanding a complex situation, we grab onto a research statistic, the latest news report, the testimony of a church leader, or perhaps an anecdote from someone who has recently visited the country. Then we can say with at least some satisfaction, "So, this is how it is."

But not so fast.

Facts about the church in China may be more readily available than they were 10 or 15 years ago. But more information does not necessarily produce greater clarity. Often the opposite results.

Thanks for the link to my page Doug. I received the link to this story from a Christian man who is American and teaches English Language in China. Has done so for years. I say that in hopes of adding a bit of veracity to the article. After all. Anybody can say anything on the Internet. Helps to have a witness to back up if it is true or not.
