Today’s podcast begins with a few personal updates (1:00), followed by a 22 year old newsletter of mine from Black Dragon River (5:11). Then, after talking about the waterspout I saw just after returning from my illegal voyage (12:52), I give more background info on my Cuban refugee friend, Mitchell, and Cuba's laws against beef(!) (14:39). Last, after a final follow-up conversation on illegal immigration (34:56), I finish by talking through the unique places in China we’ll be praying for this week. (51:18)
