Life Through the Eyes of a Chinese Pastor Prisoner (On Probation) │Prison Pulpit #66

from China Compass · host China Compass

Today on the Prison Pulpit we go even deeper with the Chinese pastor we quoted from last week, who recently spent a couple of years in prison (and is now on probation). In today’s longer interview, he tells us how to better pray for persecuted pastors, especially their families and churches, and more. I'm your China travel guide, Missionary Ben. Follow me on Twitter/X (@chinaadventures) where I present a new Chinese city or county to pray for every single day. Please send any questions or comments to a new, secure email: [email protected]. Everything else can be found at PrayGiveGo.us!  One last thing: I’m now set up on Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/c/chinacompass), which now only allows for donations, but also lets me sort podcast episodes into various collections, making it easier to find all the episodes on a certain topic or person, like Tibet, Pastor Wang Yi, or Richard Wurmbrand.   Today in passing I mentioned my little autobiographical memoir, Unbeaten, a few times. You can read the story of my 2018 arrest, interrogation, and deportation by getting the little book here: Unbeaten.vip   Why the Prison Pulpit?  The goal is to remind people to pray for persecuted believers as Hebrews 13:3 teaches: “Remember those who are in prison, as bound with them.” We’ve looked at Wang Yi and Early Rain Church’s writings in the aftermath of their arrest and attack in 2018, but I’ve also regularly turned to other persecuted ministers who have gone before, such as Richard Wurmbrand, to give us a voice literally from prison.    Interview with a Pastor on Probation Today we are going to take a look at the situation in China through the eyes and words of a house church pastor in a smaller Chinese city. The interview, published by China Partnership, can be read in full below: https://chinapartnership.org/blog/2026/01/the-cost-of-following-jesus-to-jail/ https://chinapartnership.org/blog/2026/01/witness-to-persecutors/   Follow China Compass Thank you for listening!
