This book provides both a historical look at Presbyterianism in China and an assessment of the current state of affairs, orienting readers to church development needs and the basic outlines of Reformed Christianity in China today. While laying out the challenges and opportunities facing the church, the authors argue that assisting this reformation in China should be a central objective of the Presbyterian and Reformed mission to China in this generation. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e Table of Contents: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Introduction: China, Church Development, and Presbyterianism - Bruce P.
