An unreported tectonic shift is happening in global politics -- and it's driven by religion. Within the next thirty years, one-third of China's population could be Christian, making China one of the largest Christian nations in the world. These Christians could also be China's leaders, guiding the largest economy in the world. David Aikman recounts the fascinating story of how Christianity began in China (even predating Francis Xavier and the Jesuits), the bloody anti-Christian persecutions (especially under the Communist), the revival of an underground Christian movement led by brave men and women risking death, and the flowering of Christianity today -- though still under persecution. - Publisher.
