Safely Home (3)

How's the reading going?

I'll admit to falling into a similar trap as Gayline did - I have finished the book. An engaging book with long plane rides with long layovers will do that to you.

One thing I'm curious to know is what you've been learning about the persecuted church in China. I will admit to being totally unaware of the history behind the Boxers (mentioned in the book) and so I did a little bit of internet research while we were out in California last week. Tim and I had a great discussion about it.

If you don't know about the Boxers either, I suggest you look it up. Just google "Boxer Rebellion" or "Boxer Uprising." Surprisingly, wikipedia has quite a bit of good information.


So, what has reading Safely Home taught you about the persecuted church in China?
