Hudson Taylor

    21. květen 1832 – 3. červen 1905

    James Hudson Taylor byl britský protestantský křesťanský misionář v Číně, zakladatel China Inland Mission. Byl známý svým citem pro čínskou kulturu a horlivostí pro evangelizaci, přičemž přijal nošení tradičního čínského oblečení. Pod jeho vedením byla CIM nedenominační a přijímala členy ze všech protestantských skupin, včetně dělnické třídy a svobodných žen. Taylor byl díky své kampani proti obchodu s opiem považován za jednoho z nejvýznamnějších Evropanů v Číně 19. století. Jeho životní dílo je charakterizováno širokou vizí a systematickým plánem evangelizace rozsáhlé geografické oblasti, což v žádném období od apoštola Pavla nikdo nepřekonal.
