Live from Laodicea (Echoes from Ephesus) + Alien China, CCP Warnings & NK Spy Balloons [China Compass]
Description
On last week’s podcast, I discussed my deportation from Egypt to Istanbul. This week we continue in Turkey, visiting the Seven Churches of Revelation. Today's show begins with a look at modern-day Laodicea, and a short talk I gave yesterday in the heart of old Ephesus.
