An avid China watcher, Dr. Fulton has written and taught extensively on the church in China and on Chinese social and political phenomena.

He is currently facilitating a network of member care professionals serving missionaries sent out from China. He also consults with other organizations on the impact of China's religious policy.
China's comeback as a world power is undoubtedly one of the most extraordinary stories of our time.
Equally extraordinary is the comeback of China's church. Both numerically and in terms of its growing influence in society, the church has experienced phenomenal growth during the past three decades.
The church in China is growing and diverse, but its story cannot be reduced to a single statistic or label. Brent Fulton explains why the facts are real, yet often more complicated than they first appear.
