This is the first volume in a series of three exploring modern Chinese theology. This volume covers Mainland and Mainstream--church theologians of mainland China who were predominantly associated with mainline or missionary-established denominations.

In the post-1949 era of the People's Republic this translates into theologians and theological movements associated with the state-authorized church: the Chinese Catholic Patriotic Association and the (Protestant) Three-Self Patriotic Movement. The volume is broadly chronological, with each Part forming a thematic unity. Part I covers Republican and Wartime Theologies, with seven chapters exploring theologies of resistance, ethics, and themes of indigenization and Sinicization. Part II considers Protestant Denominational Developments in the first half of the twentieth century: the complex legacy of mission history in China and the relationship between denominational church belonging and theological development. Part III, Reform Era Theologies and Methodological Considerations begins in the height of the Maoist era, and addresses the changing relationship between Christian and Communist thought in the writings of TSPM theologians; the theological use of China's Christian past, and the development of Roman Catholic theological education in the twenty first century.
