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, prayer for, and contributions to the Chinese church.

As the world enters into the post-pandemic era, many church leaders have been rethinking how to transform the church. Some shift to pastoral ministry which focuses on building relationships with the congregation, some prefer the "micro church" to return to the early church model, and others urge traditional churches to reach urban people with an understanding of their characteristics and their needs. Different explorations are on the way.
