Welcome to the China Compass Podcast on the Fight Laugh Feast Network! I'm your China travel guide, Missionary Ben. You can follow me on X (@chinaadventures) where I post daily reminders to pray for China (PrayforChina.us). And you can check out all of the other things we are involved in @ PrayGiveGo.us.
I begin by explaining my beef with the Babylon Bee, and how that segues to CrossPolitic News. Next, Trump pardons pro-life/China missionaries, and Cal recommends The Memoirs of William Milne. We look at China’s National Character, followed by the true story of “The Old Man in the Alley. Finally, we end by talking about Dragon Babies, Year of the Snake, Trump, and TikTok.
