Foreword:

Greetings! We are China Christian Daily, the first comprehensive English Christian news website about the church in China. Thank you for your sincere love, prayers, and contributions to the Chinese church. 

After the Chinese New Year, the Chinese church appeared to resume all activities and ministries in March. Both within China and beyond its borders, Christian conferences and forums have come to life. This month, we spotlight three pivotal conferences addressing key themes: the sinicization of Christianity, kingdom theology, and reconciliation in Northeast Asia. They emphasize the importance of integrating Christianity within the rich tapestry of traditional Chinese culture, the deepening of Chinese pastoral workers' understanding of kingdom theology and its implications for ministry and service, and the necessity of healing divides in a region marked by historical tensions and conflicts.
