James Hudson Taylor

    21 mei 1832 – 3 juni 1905

    James Hudson Taylor was een Britse protestantse christelijke missionaris in China en oprichter van de China Inland Mission. Hij stond bekend om zijn gevoeligheid voor de Chinese cultuur en zijn ijver voor evangelisatie, waarbij hij inheemse Chinese kleding aannam. Onder zijn leiding was de CIM niet-confessioneel en accepteerde leden uit alle protestantse groepen, waaronder de arbeidersklasse en alleenstaande vrouwen. Taylor wordt erkend als een van de belangrijkste Europeanen in China in de 19e eeuw vanwege zijn campagne tegen de opiumhandel. Zijn levenswerk kenmerkt zich door een brede visie en een gesystematiseerd plan voor het evangeliseren van een groot geografisch gebied, ongeëvenaard sinds de apostel Paulus.
