HOT OFFERS A Retrospect
James Hudson Taylor (1832-1905), was a British Protestant Christian missionary to China, and founder of the China Inland Mission. The society that he began was responsible for bringing over 800 missionaries to the country who began 125 schools and directly resulted in 18,000 Christian conversions, as well as the establishment of more than 300 stations of work with more than 500 local helpers in all eighteen provinces. He wrote a book called China’s Spiritual Need and Claims in 1865 which was instrumental in generating sympathy for China and volunteers for the mission field, who began to go out in 1862. Taylor was known for his sensitivity to Chinese culture and zeal for evangelism. He adopted wearing native Chinese clothing even though this was rare among missionaries of that time. Under his leadership, the CIM was singularly nondenominational in practice and accepted members from all Protestant groups, including individuals from the working class and single women as well as multinational recruits. Primarily because of the CIM’s campaign against the Opium trade, Taylor has been referred to as one of the most significant Europeans to visit China in the 19th Century. – goodreads

A rare and precious glimpse into the heart of one of God’s greatest missionaries
By Mike Pettengill
First published in 1894 this book is compiled from the journals and letters of J. Hudson Taylor, the 19th century missionary to China. Taylor spent 51 years as a pioneering missionary in China and changed the way many view missions today.This short book covers from Taylor’s conversion in 1849 to the beginning of his second voyage to China in 1866. During this period he hears and heeds his call to missions, spends seven years in China, resigns from his mission society, returns to England, forms his own mission society and returns to China. The true beauty of this book is that these pivotal and influential years are documented in Taylor’s own words.In the second half of the 19th century Hudson Taylor completely bucked conventional wisdom in the world of missions. Many of his peers spent much of their time bringing “civilized” culture to other countries ahead of the gospel. Taylor, on the other hand, immersed himself in the Chinese culture. He lived, talked, dressed, ate and traveled like those he came to serve. Other missionaries and many senders viewed him as too radical and denounced his efforts. Taylor was revolutionary in the way he financed missions, treated female missionaries and addressed the spiritual needs of the Chinese people.This book provides an honest and insightful look into the thought process of one of the most successful and significant missionaries in modern history. The sincere words of this transparent man are a benefit to goers and senders alike. He displays his fears, self-doubt, uncertainty and unflappable faith in Christ for all to see.While this is not the most popular book on Hudson Taylor it is the most honest. It is a rare and precious glimpse into the heart of one of God’s greatest missionaries.

A Retrospect
By Ruth
I read this in paperback form when I was a teen and really liked it. When I saw it on the Kindle, I wanted to read it again. The book is very interesting because it is in J. Hudson Taylor’s own words. It tells about the struggles he went through to get to the mission field. It also shows the power of prayer to supply all his needs in China. The part about founding China Inland Mission is more of an overview. I highly recommend this book.
