Among China's nearly 30 million deaf and mute people, countless souls still quietly await the good news from the gospel. Brother Zibu's story reminds us that the deep divide between the hearing and the deaf and mute is not beyond bridging—it requires not pity, but understanding; not charity, but companionship.

In Pastor Chen’s view, the Charismatic movement gained rapid traction in the Chinese mainland—especially in rural areas—because it offered emotional immediacy, experiential spirituality, and a highly energized communal atmosphere. It broke through the rigid, formulaic patterns that characterized many traditional gatherings at the time.

In northern China, a family has followed Christ for nearly a century, raising preachers for four generations—a living witness to the enduring faith of countless believers and to God’s hand that never shortens.

Amid the ever-changing tides of the times, should the church also adapt to keep pace? Pastor Chen, who has long served in an urban church in northern China, candidly noted that many traditional church practices once regarded as “spiritual” have become outdated and, in some cases, obstacles to the church’s healthy development.

Reflecting on her experience, Xiaohang always gives glory to God, “It is not that I am good, but that God is good.” The woman who once could shut her own loving husband out in the freezing cold and routinely let him go to bed hungry now intercedes for her enemies in prayers. The woman who once forced her husband to prove God's existence with "a drawerful of money" now says: "Lord, as long as I don’t die of hunger, I will follow you always."

After decades under the guidance of a founding pastor, a church in northern China has embarked on a bold experiment in shared leadership. Moving away from a single-leader structure, it has introduced a “Three-Role Division” model that distributes authority among three teams—the Administration, Pastoral Ministry, and Overseers.

Pastor Chen, a church leader from northern China, recently shared his observations and reflections on the phenomenon of re-denominationalization among Chinese churches, believing that it brings "more benefits than drawbacks" to the church in China.

Pastor Hong believes the best solution to the church’s challenges is already in Scripture. By following the early church’s model—where every family opens its home to welcome the church—congregations can break down barriers, grow in love, and remain strong in any environment.

At the time, Daniel was a timid twelve-year-old, watching from a distance. The brutality of the scene deeply unsettled him, prompting a question: Why do people treat one another with such cruelty, even to the point of taking a life?

Now in his fifties, Pastor Hong has devoted the majority of his life to church ministry. Observing that many churches and believers today have lost the transformative power of truth, he has committed himself to restoring this foundation within the church, aiming to cultivate a truth-based church culture that will take generations to fully establish.
