For those that are interested, there’s an interesting documentary that just aired on PBS regarding the church in China:

Amazing the sacrifice these men and women are making in obscurity.

There’s also an interesting overview of the “institutional” church being promoted by the government in an attempt to “remove the teeth” of Christianity.

On the other side are simple, devoted Christians focused on living and spreading the gospel in the face of persecution. Worth the watch.

Especially when they bristle with cymbals.

Tim – the drums are the beginning of compromise.

So without all the media outlets that the western church enjoys, how did the Chinese evangelical church grow? They have a core of prayer, which the western church has marginalized due to the time it takes and the lack of immediate results.

I was going to say it was the guitar and and drums.

The Chinese church is a miracle of God, and they did it without the help of democracy and the religious right. Hmm…
