Nearly one out of every four people in the world is Chinese speaking. Of this group only 5% or less would be even nominally Christian. In places like Mainland China there is a lack of sound Biblical teaching and study materials. Christian literature is unavailable in many places. Few good Christian resource materials exist in Chinese.
