In Case You Missed It: Doug Wilson Joins China Compass [China Compass]

Back in October I sat down with Pastor Doug Wilson in Moscow, Idaho to have a conversation on all things China. I was excited to get his perspective, since he has personally lived through much of China’s modern communist history. It was a fun conversation, and Doug seemed to think so too. He later wrote the following on his blog's weekly Cluster Muster: "I was recently on an interesting podcast that was quite different from my usual podcast interview topics." In our 30+ minute conversation, we touched on many topics including the Great Leap Forward, Mao’s Great Famine, Doug’s Submarine Adventures with a Taiwanese crew, the China Legacies of Richard Nixon and Jimmy Carter, the Tiananmen Square massacre (and revival), China’s modern-day revival, C.S. Lewis’s 1946 China optimism vs. Doug’s (short-term) pessimism, Hebrews 13:3 and how to pray for the persecuted, and PrayforChina.us ’s helpful strategy!
