A press and publication work conference was hosted online by CCC&TSPM on October 28.
Rev. Xu Xiaohong, chairman of the Three-Self Patriotic Movement (TSPM), said in a talk that the publishing ministry played a prominent role in all kinds of Christian ministries in China, for its lasting and long-term influence, guidance, and diffusion, according to CCC&TSPM.
He added that the Bible itself was a written and printed work, and the New Testament was formed as disciples passed down the gospel of Jesus and the letters of apostles. The pastor encouraged attendees to be "messengers" of the gospel. He also pointed out that the ministry was an important way for CCC&TSPM to serve grassroots churches and ordinary believers, as it could publicize national religious policies, promote the Sinicization of Christianity, and solve the self-pastoring problems in Chinese churches.
During the meeting, Rev. Xu and Rev. Shan Weixiang, chief of the media ministry department of CCC&TSPM, jointly unveiled five new styles of the Bible, showing the details through the promotional video and the bibliographic informational audio.
After the meeting, an online study room was open to share the latest publication information with the participants.
