In the lecture, Pastor Hao not only showed the historical mission of Tian Feng, but also explained in detail the reason and process of how this magazine had become an important media tool for patriotism and religious devotion, as well as an important window for Chinese society and the world to know Chinese Christianity. He added that since its founding 77 years ago, the magazine has promoted the message of patriotism and guided Christians to know the society, constantly adapting to the socialist society, and contributing to the healthy development of Christianity in China.
Pastor Gao Ming, chairman of TSPM of Shangdong, said Tian Feng’s current layout and column structure had “distinctive features and rich content”, which “provides churches across the country the direction of sinicizing Christianity and believers the correct guidance to adapt to the socialist society”.
