Introduction to the history of "Back to Jerusalem"

The Back to Jerusalem vision is not a new vision. It was first given to a Chinese church called the “Jesus Family” in the late 1920s, and later to several different church groups in the 1930s and 40s. It is a vision of evangelism in the major unreached nations of the world.

Here in this history section we examine some of the fascinating experiences of these early pioneers as they attempted to take the Gospel, on foot, through the Islamic world back to Jerusalem. We will see how different groups and individuals responded to this vision, and how God intervened in their lives to glorify Himself. We also read about the suffering and persecution many of them suffered, and what happened with these faithful believers.
