"The Heavenly Man" by Brother Yun with Paul Hattaway
a biography of a chinese pastor of the house churches in China. Deeply moving, touching and revitalising.
so, anyone read it? for those who haven't, i really recommand this book. It gives us a clear warning, reminder and call. It reminds us that NOTHING is impossible for God, and also the mission of evangelism God has placed upon all christians.
i'm especially impressed with some parts:
how God broke Pastor Yun out of prison, the absolute control God had even when Yun disobeyed Him, the breaking apart of the chinese churches due to western denominational influences (now that is something i've never heard of), the very similar state the house churches are to the churches in Acts in terms of material possession and zeal for God, and the stark comparison of the western sleeping churches..
