JESUS IN CHINA
Tuesday, June 24, 2008
PBS 9 P.M. ET (check local listings)
As the world spotlight hits China this summer, reporter Evan Osnos goes inside one of the country's most important, but least understood movements--China's underground churches. A joint project of FRONTLINE/World and the Chicago Tribune, "Jesus in China" examines the wave of Christianity that has been sweeping across the country in recent years, and the different ways the Chinese ruling party--officially atheist--is now racing to control it. Also in this hour, two more stories from a small planet, including, "Living on the Edge," producer/reporter Martin Smith's sobering look at communities around the world already devastated by global climate change, and the story of a new movement of architects out to help solve humanitarian problems through design.
