God planted the seeds of faith and the solutions to the problems of Communist China more than 150 years ago. Christians must pray for the conversion of China (as well as a return to faith for so many American Christians who have abandoned their faith.)
This story of Hudson Taylor and the sacrafices needed for a fruitful life.
"In September 1853, a little three-masted clipper slipped quietly out of Liverpool harbor with Hudson Taylor, a gaunt and wild-eyed 21-year-old missionary, aboard. He was headed for a country that was just coming into the Christian West's consciousness; only a few dozen missionaries were stationed there. By the time Taylor died a half-century later, however, China was viewed as the most fertile and challenging of mission fields as thousands volunteered annually to serve there.In September 1853, a little three-masted clipper slipped quietly out of Liverpool harbor with Hudson Taylor, a gaunt and wild-eyed 21-year-old missionary, aboard.
