The theme of this volume is: "The Sinification of Christianity", a concept which emerged from the study of the history of Christian higher education in China over the past 30 years. It starts with the fact that when the Protestant missionaries first came to China they hoped to "Christianize China." However, if the process of Christianizing China were to succeed, Christianity first had to accommodate itself to the Chinese culture and society, i.e. to undergo a processes of "contextualization", "indigenization" and "Sinification" in order to survive on Chinese soil. Eventually, it evolved into a new form of Christianity. Over the past thirty years, there is a drastic shift of paradigms and the broadening of perspectives in the study of Christian higher education in China. It was a process of Sinification of both the Christian colleges and universities in the Republican China era (1911-1949) and the study of the history of these Christian colleges and universities by Chinese scholars since the 1980s.
