Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mao Tse-tung's atheistic teaching governs all aspects of life in China today. But at the time of the 1949 revolution there were flourishing churches and student Christian Fellowships. What happened to them? David Adeney was in China during the revolution and the critical years in which Communism took root there. His first-hand account of life under the Communist régime describes the impact of Communist teaching on Christian students in the universities--the focal point of propaganda--and on the church as a whole. Now based in Singapore, he maintains his interest in modern China. He includes a chapter on the future of Christian witness in Communist countries generally.
