Fuyang has many believers, thanks to the rural revival that swept through the area in the 1980s and 90s. Church leaders say they have experienced significant persecution over the last few years, but that God has matured them and their churches through the difficulty.

Fuyang: A Long Christian History | China Partnership Join us this June as we pray for the city of Fuyang in Anhui Province.

Ever since Christianity entered China, it has encountered many stumbling blocks: language barriers, clash of civilizations, foreign distrusts, internal persecution. Jesus says in Matthew 11, “From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and the violent take it by force.”

The mission to expand the Kingdom of God into new territories is often slow and discouraging, but Jesus also promised to be with his people to the ends of the world. This month, we are going to talk about several major stumbling blocks that make believing in Jesus difficult in China.

The House Church in China, Season 2 Episode 5 When persecution mounts, how can a house church pastor like Jacob have the perseverance to continue “running so as to get the prize”?

This week, pray for the needs of the people of Fuyang. Pray for the church to be a Christlike witness to their friends, neighbors, coworkers, and family members.

Although we’ve had a podcast for several years now, this year we’ve decided to expand our format. In addition to telling long-form stories of the Chinese church, we’re also going to be posting regular, monthly episodes discussing topics related to the church in China.

In the first installment of this new monthly format, we tackled a huge issue: what does Christianity in China look like in 2026? Here’s a short excerpt from that conversation. Please check out our podcast and follow on Spotify, Apple, or wherever you stream your podcasts.
