The Biographical Dictionary of Chinese Christianity (BDCC) is a biographical dictionary which focuses on the lives of Chinese Christians and foreign Christian missionaries to China. It is published in both Chinese and English.[1]

The BDCC was initially modelled after the Dictionary of African Christian Biography (DACB) produced by the Boston University School of Theology, and was supported by the DACB and the Overseas Ministries Study Center.[2] The BDCC began with already published biographical materials, especially from the Biographical Dictionary of Christian Missions (1998),[3][4] and invites contributions from other researchers and institutions.[5]
