Beijing

China’s Seat of Power

About this book

Many people are aware of the extraordinary explosion of Christianity throughout China in recent decades, but few know how it has occurred. In The China Chronicles, Paul Hattaway draws on 35 years of experience in China and numerous first-hand interviews with church leaders to provide insight into how the Living God has brought about the largest revival in the history of Christianity. Presented in a style that is exciting, relevant, and transformative, Hattaway documents the acts of the Holy Spirit throughout China, preferring to focus on the wonderful things God has done for man rather than on what man has done for God. Beijing has an astonishingly long and rich history, dating back over a thousand years. Read about how the emperors of China prostrated themselves on the ground as they sought the blessings of the Creator, Shangdi, at the Temple of Heaven, and witness the hand of God as He established His kingdom in one of the world's great capital cities.
