Lastly, to learn more about our ministry endeavors or get one of my missionary biographies, visit PrayGiveGo.us!   Why did I begin this weekly Prison Pulpit series?  To remind us all to pray for persecuted pastors and believers (such as Pastor Wang Yi) as Hebrews 13:3 teaches us to do (“as bound with them”), by sharing from his own published writings in China, as well as more prison stories and sermons from others like the late Richard Wurmbrand. Here’s my humble attempt at expositing Hebrews 13:3: https://chinacall.substack.com/p/remember-my-chains   But today it dawned on me that there was an opportunity to honor John MacArthur and keep mostly to the topic of this mid-week podcast, reminding us to pray for the persecuted church. Before sharing the John MacArthur preaching clip from 1973 on Hebrews 13:3, I briefly talk about the following topics… My first MacArthur memory: Scary Nursing Home Book Stand My best MacArthur memory: Titus exposition (via mp3) from Istanbul to Sophia, Bulgaria My only visit to Grace Community Church: Random Tuesday in 2012 My favorite MacArthur sermon: https://www.gty.org/sermons/GTY104/the-tale-of-two-sons My closest connection to John MacArthur: My late Uncle Jack   Read the written version of today’s podcast on my Substack:  https://chinacall.substack.com/p/macarthurs-shortest-exposition-ever   Follow China Compass Follow or subscribe to China Compass on whichever platform you use.
