God’s Mighty Acts in China
Guizhou, which means “Precious State,” is home to more than 80 distinct tribes among the province’s 35 million people. God has powerfully reached several of these groups, but others still wait to hear of the Savior of the world.
Guizhou includes many vivid brief biographies of the extraordinary people who have been part of this remarkable story, along with dozens of unique photographs, painstakingly collected by the author over years.
This is the second volume in the China Chronicles, which tells the modern history of the Church in China. Each history starts with the arrival of the first Evangelical missionaries in a province and continues to the present day.
Partly because of its explosive growth in recent decades, there is no accurate, readable account of what has happened to the Chinese Church. This series is designed to inform the wider world of the astonishing work of the Spirit in China. The China Chronicles also aim to provide Chinese believers, and members of the immense Chinese diaspora, with some sense of their own roots.

In the second volume in the China Chronicles, Paul Hattaway tells the story of the church’s growth in the province of Guizhou. Join him in discovering more than 80 distinct tribes, many of which have been reached by the incredible work of the spirit and dedicated field workers. Full of vivid biographies and photographs, Guizhou is a compelling story of the Lord’s work among the unreached of China in the “Precious State.”
