US Air Force Pilot Arrested AFTER “Serving” 2 Years in Beijing (+ World’s Biggest China Importer?)

This week we begin by looking at who imports the most from China (5:17), why Chinese spend so much money on food (13:30), and Dictator Xi’s next CCP purge (18:38). Then, we take a deep dive (23:00) into the breaking story of the former US Air Force pilot who was arrested in February after returning from 2+ years of sharing military secrets with the Communist regime in Beijing. Lastly, we look at this week’s diverse list of Chinese cities to be praying for (42:36)! Welcome to China Compass on the Fight Laugh Feast network!

What a powerful story of radical obedience and sacrifice. I'm planning to recommend it to the young men I'm currently mobilizing for the 10/40 Window—I think Borden's example will be incredibly inspiring for them as they consider their own call to the unreached.” The Autobiography of John G.
