A Heart for China

We’ve all heard of missionaries like Livingstone and
Hudson Taylor and their fearless exploits. But what about their supporters who
made it possible?

Benjamin Broomhall, Hudson
Taylor’s brother-in-law, was one of the best-known Victorian laymen of his day.
Cabinet ministers and members of Parliament knew him for his uncompromising
stand on the questions of slavery and the opium trade, but undoubtedly his
greatest work was in the service of the China Inland Mission.

He never travelled to China but
had a great influence on God’s work there. 
He interviewed and sent out several hundred missionaries. As the editor
of China’s Millions, he acquired an expert knowledge of the culture,
customs and spiritual needs of China that helped inform and garner support from
the Christian public. The loyalty, support and administrative work of Benjamin
and his wife Amelia were integral to Dr James Hudson Taylor’s remarkable
programme of growth and mission in inland China.

Written by Broomhall’s great
grandson Norman Cliff, A Heart for China will encourage you to see how
God can use your individual skills to play your part in his plans.
