Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Education in China: A Study Made by an Educational Commission Representing the Mission Boards and Societies Conducting Work in China The publication of the Report of the China Educational Com mission marks, in one sense, the completion of an undertaking which was begun in 1917 (see Introduction). In a more vital sense, it marks the beginning of a new and very important develop ment in the history Of Christian education in China. From this time on, as a result Of the studies of the Commission, the forces concerned with Christian education in China have before them a statement of principles which, in the judgment of careful and sympathetic students, should underlie all future progress and a forecast of opportunities and ideals which should arouse much latent energy. It will equally be the Obligation of the several Boards and Socie ties responsible for the support and administration Of Christian education in China to give careful heed to the matured conclusions of the experts who were set apart to make this study. The Report may either lie undisturbed in their archives, useful for the future historian Of education in China, or it may become a directive factor in the educational system Of China, influencing powerfully the intellectual life of the Chinese Church and of the Chinese people.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on Christian Education in China: Its Present Status and Problems Before presenting matter relating to existing constructive movements it appears necessary to give a brief historical resume, setting forth the beginnings and wide extension of educational missionary work, and the natural presentation and discussion of this subject in the general conferences of missionaries, which gradually led to the formation of the missionary Educational Association of China and of the General Board of Education, active membership in the first being confined to members of Protestant Christian Churches engaged or who have been engaged in-educational work or in making and editing school and text books, the second representing the Centenary Missionary Conference held in Shanghai, 1907. Historical Resume. The very nature of mission work binds the propagation of the Gospel to an educational development: first, the missionary is himself at school, in studying a new language, and incidentally is educating his teacher. Those to whom he has access immediately begin to widen their literary and intellectual horizon, and to enter a distinctly higher sphere of philosophy and ethics, and to find the deeper moral causes underlying the rise and fall of empires. In China, following John of Monte Corvino in the thirteenth century, we find the Jesuit Fathers in the sixteenth century introducing the knowledge of the elements of Western science and history of that era. Later, after the beginning of the Protestant Missions, Morrison's first work was the creation of a dictionary containing a Chinese and English working vocabulary, which became the stepping stone to the study of the Chinese language by foreigners and of the English language by Chinese. The next step was the founding of the Morrison Educational Society with its school near Canton, and the issuing of text-books in Chinese and English of an elementary character. Mission day and boarding schools followed the opening of mission stations in all parts of the Empire. Many of the day schools at first were very elementary and largely given to the teaching of children to read, especially the Bible and books of a primary order containing distinctively Christian ideas. The boarding schools served for somewhat higher training and brought the youth into more direct contact with the missionaries. In some cases these were carried on with the distinct aim of raising up a body of native helpers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2019-01-30 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from In China Now: China's Need and the Christian Contribution To give any adequate account of present developments in China and of the Christian contribution to the new needs thus discovered is beyond the compass of a book so short as this present one. All that can be hoped is that its contents may be suggestive 'in helping readers strange to China better to appreciate the conditions of the country, and the challenge which those conditions offer to Christian statesmanship. The book, as originally written, was somewhat longer, but had to be cut down to come nearer to the limits laid down' by the United Council for Missionary Education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: . Renewal of Life by Transmission. The most notable distinction between living and inanimate things is that the former maintain themselves by renewal. A stone when struck resists. If its resistance is greater than the force of the blow struck, it remains outwardly unchanged. Otherwise, it is shattered into smaller bits. Never does the stone attempt to react in such a way that it may maintain itself against the blow, much less so as to render the blow a contributing factor to its own continued action. While the living thing may easily be crushed by superior force, it none the less tries to turn the energies which act upon it into means of its own further existence. If it cannot do so, it does not just split into smaller pieces (at least in the higher forms of life), but loses its identity as a living thing. As long as it endures, it struggles to use surrounding energies in its own behalf. It uses light, air, moisture, and the material of soil. To say that it uses them is to say that it turns them into means of its own conservation. As long as it is growing, the energy it expends in thus turning the environment to account is more than compensated for by the return it gets: it grows. Understanding the word "control" in this sense, it may be said that a living being is one that subjugates and controls for its own continued activity the energies that would otherwise use it up. Life is a self-renewing process through action upon the environment.
