Having served as the leader of his church's youth fellowship for over a decade, Brother Bai suddenly received a suspension notice from the church. The fellowship had grown together with his own spiritual life since the early days of his faith journey.

Two decades ago, Sister Wu, originally from Northeast China, set out with her husband, Teacher Guo, and their four-year-old daughter, traveling thousands of kilometers to this unfamiliar mountainous region in southern China. Their mission was clear: to reach believers scattered across remote villages. "In the past, missionaries planted many seeds of the gospel deep in these mountains. We are here to serve and minister to them," she said.

Pastor Wang from Northwest China took a close look at the current challenges and circumstances surrounding theological education in China. In the past, Pastor Wang envisioned seminaries as places that would attract the most gifted and capable individuals, but he soon discovered a different reality. Many seminary students were "the ones left behind"—those who struggled academically, ethnic minority youth, and even troubled teens.

Throughout his ministry, Pastor Kou has served in various churches across central and southwestern China. In an interview, he highlighted a troubling trend in some churches today: certain pastors regard believers as "their own flock" rather than "the Lord's sheep."

He continued, "I believe that whatever I can accomplish in my counseling work is rooted in my faith. My relationship with God is personal and unique, and it is this uniqueness that sets me apart. There are many others who are more skilled than I am, but it is this distinct connection that gives me inspiration, strength, and wisdom."

Choosing to "go the extra mile," Mr. Huang focuses on helping people with their real-life problems without initially mentioning Jesus or promoting religion—trusting that once their needs are met, they will return with a deeper "thirst."

In an interview with Christian Times, Christian counselor Ms. Shanshan shared how, over the past decade, she has supported individuals in regaining mental well-being through the guidance of God.

When Zhang first stepped in the church, he stood among the congregation listening to the hymns, and the melody deeply moved his heart. He joined in singing, thinking to himself, “There is truly God!” with tears streaming down his face.

The once "Buddhist debater" put aside theoretical arguments and chose to personally experience the grace of God. Brother Huang eventually followed his friend and accepted the Christian faith, transforming from a proud "savior" to a humble "saved one."

Sister Zhou remarked, “A good instructor must be thoroughly familiar with the Bible. This familiarity goes beyond the surface of the words, which means being able to clearly comprehend and articulate the meaning of Scripture.”
