China's Zion Church Targeted + Abby's Unbelievably Awful Birthday Boat Ride [China Compass]
Description
On last week’s podcast I sat down with Pastor Doug Wilson in Moscow, Idaho. Today I’ve got another special guest for the first half of the podcast, my lovely daughter Abby who just had a birthday this week (hint: she’s old enough to drive but yet an “adult”).
Here’s how you can follow her and her artwork: https://www.instagram.com/abriana.isabel_art/
And here’s a book that she illustrated: https://www.amazon.com/Snowy-Love-Story-Timothy-Yeahquo/dp/B0DJBYNP14/

After Abby and I talk all about our adventures in Australia and awful boat rides in Malaysia, we discuss one article that brings up a point in which I disagree slightly with Doug Wilson…
