The Chinese will tell you that the future does not escape the past. Risk your present reality. Come explore China's past and better understand her future standing in the world.

    Student Life

    Evaluating and responding to culture-shock can best be done in community. CSP emphasizes life together. You'll be speaking a new language, exposed to different traditions, the center of more attention than you've ever been before.  But you're not doing this alone. You connect with the group through Bible study, worship and discussion. You talk about your faith, living in China and what this means for life back home. Camaraderie can mean the difference between toughing it out on your own and coming to terms with the local culture with the support of friends.

    You'll also be interacting with citizens of the host country: teachers and students. Many CSP students make deep friendships with Chinese students and maintain those friendships long after returning to the U.S.

    Are you ready for an adventure? You will never be the same after your semester in China. From the first time you eat a fish's eyeball to your teary goodbye with Chinese friends, you will feel yourself changing in ways you never dreamed possible. Classes, travels and discussions help you process what you encounter. It's reorienting your priorities, reexamining much of what you believe and reaffirming your priorities in a crazy, mixed up, upside down world. Are you ready to give it a try?
