James Hudson Taylor 戴德生 foi um missionário Cristão Protestante Inglês na China, e fundador do China Inland Mission . Taylor viveu na China por 51 anos.

Ele adotou a prática de usar roupas nativas da China mesmo quando isso era raro entre os missionários da época. Sob a sua liderança, a CIM era singularmente não-denominacional na prática e aceitava membros de todos os grupos Protestantes, incluindo indivíduos da classe de trabalho, mulheres solteiras e recrutas multinacionais, também. Primeiramente por causa da campanha do CIM contra o comércio do Ópio, Taylor foi citado como um dos Europeus mais significantes a visitar a China no Século XIX. O Historiador Ruth Tucker sumariza o tema de sua vida:



Taylor teve a oportunidade de pregar em várias variedades de Chinês, incluindo o Mandarim, Teochew dialeto Chaozhou, e os dialetos Wu do Xangai e Ningbo. O último destes ele conhecia o bastante para ajudar a preparar uma edição coloquial do Novo Testamento escrito nessa língua. Wikipedia
