This study traces the historical influence of Hudson Taylor on the faith missions movement and outlines lessons from Taylor's ministry for missions today.
The missiological distinctives of Hudson Taylor and the China Inland Mission are seen to be the priority of the unreached; nonsolicitation and nonindebtedness; identification with the Chinese; interdenominational and international character; use of laymen women; and leadership style.
The key factors accounting for Taylor's historical influence on the faith missions movement and his current influence on the Christian world and missiology are shown to be his balance of qualities, pioneer style and spiritual life.
Abiding lessons for missions today from the life and ministry of Hudson Taylor include his successful patterns of missionary recruitment, and the importance of vision, faith, commitment and prayer.
