A Preacher’s Pursuit of Growth and Worship
In the economically struggling town of Dafen, Taishan, Tan Zhenlin, a dedicated preacher, continues to serve a small, aging congregation with steadfast commitment. Despite numerous challenges, including the town’s declining economy and a shrinking population of believers, Tan remains focused on enhancing his ministry and deepening his knowledge of worship. He was grateful to have participated in an equipping programme organised by the Guangdong Union Theological Seminary, with support from the United Bible Societies.

STORIES
The Blessing of Scripture Literacy
With an unmistakable sense of joy, 80-year-old Wu Huaijie (pseudonym used) shares about the Scripture Literacy class she joined at her local church. She is deeply grateful for the class which offers individuals like her a second chance at learning to read and write. Though Wu was raised in a Christian family, her inability to read has limited her spiritual growth for many years. Today, she is able to read the Bible quite well and doing so has brought immeasurable joy to her life!
A Discipler in the Making
When Sun Zhen first began her ministry in an urban church in Yunnan province, she felt anxious and disoriented about discipling others. After attending her first discipleship group leader training based on the "Life of Jesus" about two years ago, she felt more equipped to lead others in studying the Bible. She was also deeply impacted by the many promises of God that can be found in His Word.

She shares how God's Word has impacted her life and how it helps her to remain grounded in her faith as she finds renewed strength daily with the Bible.
