Articles shared the following characteristics: First, writers presented Christian thoughts and ethics through explanations of fundamental Christian moral concepts, women’s responsibilities, and the relationship between Christianity and Chinese society. Secod, writers, drew special attention to the changing social status of women by introducing developments in related issues in Europe , the United States, and the Soviet Union.
