The five years that followed World War II were the most significant in the history of modern missions. They saw the door close on nearly one quarter of the world's population as China, the world's largest mission field, came under communist domination.
Mission work had often been dangerous in China, but for over a century Western misssionaries had freely entered China to preach all across its vast regions. But by the end of 1950 all that had changed. Most Protestant missions had already withdrawn. Now the largest mission in the world, the China Inland Mission, realized that open Christian witness in China had become impossible.
But did the decision come to late? This book tells the inspiring story of their exodus from China.
