Read how the CCC is working to improve access to healthcare<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1980, the China Christian Council (CCC) was established. Institutional protestant denominations no longer exist within the CCC, and believers worship together. Differences in theological or liturgical background are dealt with according to mutual respect. The pastoral work of the Chinese churches has expanded over the last twenty-five years. More than 60,000 churches and meeting places have been opened; 70 percent of which are newly built. Of the more than 26 million Protestant Christians, 70 percent live in the rural areas.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lay training, theological formation, and Bible distribution are among the top priorities of the CCC. From 1980 to 2014, 70 million Bibles were printed and distributed in China. Social service has developed in recent years. There are currently 22 theological seminaries and Bible schools, and hundreds of lay training centers throughout China. Since the China Christian Council was founded, it has worked closely with the National Committee of the Three-Self Patriotic Movement of the Protestant Churches in China (TSPM) to achieve the full program of the ministries of Chinese Christianity. CCC\/TSPM is advocating theological renewal and sinicization in the Chinese church to build up theological thinking that is biblically grounded, rooted in Chinese culture, encapsulates the special experience of the Chinese church, and is able to provide a sound explanation of Christian faith in the modern Chinese contexts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","region":[20068,20019],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nChina Christian Council - Global Ministries<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.globalministries.org\/partner\/eap_partners_china_christian_council\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"China Christian Council - Global Ministries\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Read how the CCC is working to improve access to healthcare In 1980, the China Christian Council (CCC) was established.
