Book excerpt: There is a gospel movement quietly spreading through the largest country in the world. Despite secularism, materialism, and social decay, despite government control and persecution, "house churches" are attracting millions of new believers throughout the major cities of China. Among these churches, a new movement of pastors form a true indigenous expression of Reformed theology, preaching prophetically to a postmodern audience and preparing and strengthening their flocks for suffering. In this book, five Chinese house church pastors apply scripture to life in modern China, which mirrors a fast-paced globalized world that has lost its moral framework. Developed from sermons on the five solas, these essays speak to pastors and laypeople alike who seek to follow Christ out of Christian complacency and provide a beacon to the alienated modern global citizen.
