Resources for Re-Entry

Bibles
The Chinese New Version (CNVS) is similar to the English NIV. The CCB is similar to the English NLT. The Chinese Union Version (CUVS) is the most common translation used in China; however, it is older and can be harder to understand. See here for more information on Bible translation in China and see below for some Bible resources: 
  • Chinese Bible (Apps which you can search for on an app store)
    • 精读圣经 
    • 微读圣经 
    • YouVersion
  • Chinese/English Bible (website)

Explaining the Bible
Consider reading and discussing a book together with an international student. Below are some books that help explain the main message of the Bible: 
  • What is the Gospel by Greg Gilbert (Chinese PDF; English on Amazon)
  • Who is Jesus by Greg Gilbert (Chinese PDF; English on Amazon)
  • The Whole Story of the Bible in 16 Verses by Chris Bruno (Chinese PDF; English on Amazon)
  • Song of a Wanderer by Li Chen (Chinese online version; English table of contents)
    • Addresses many of the questions Chinese students and scholars have (i.e. the relationship between science and faith, the relationship between Christianity and other religions).
