I recently sat down with the Campus Preacher, Keith Darrell, to discuss a variety of topics, including his "favorite" bar in Butte, Montana, Chinese racists and feminists, and getting heckled (and shut down) while preaching Down Under.    Campus Preacher Podcast: https://pubtv.flfnetwork.com/tabs/audio/podcasts/8304 [https://pubtv.flfnetwork.com/tabs/audio/podcasts/8304] Campus Preacher Website: https://www.campuspreacher.com/ [https://www.campuspreacher.com/] Campus Preacher Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/c/KeithDarrell [https://www.youtube.com/c/KeithDarrell] Campus Preacher Instagram: @campuspreacher [https://www.instagram.com/campuspreacher/?hl=en]   Pray for China Weekly (6/15-21): https://chinacall.substack.com/p/pray-for-china-june-15-21-2026 [https://chinacall.substack.com/p/pray-for-china-june-15-21-2026]   Subscribe to China Compass and leave a review on your favorite podcast platform.

Doug Wilson Interview: Early Years in Japan, Trump's China Tactics, and Climbing the Great Wall (Someday)

I was blessed to sit down once again with Pastor Doug Wilson in his Idaho office to discuss a variety of China-related topics, including Trump's China tactics and whether or not Doug thinks he'll ever stand on the Great Wall of China. We also spent quite a few minutes discussing his early years in Japan, which was sort of unplanned. The conversation was fascinating and fun and we only stopped because of time restraints. I have a few more questions that I had to leave for a future conversation.  Here's the link to our previous conversation back in the Fall of 2025, of which I wrote the following... In our 30+ minute conversation, we touched on many topics including the Great Leap Forward, Mao’s Great Famine, Doug’s Submarine Adventures with a Taiwanese crew, the China Legacies of Richard Nixon and Jimmy Carter, the Tiananmen Square massacre (and revival), China’s modern-day revival, C.S. Lewis’s 1946 China optimism vs. Doug’s (short-term) pessimism, Hebrews 13:3 and how to pray for the persecuted, and PrayforChina.us’s helpful strategy! https://pubtv.flfnetwork.com/tabs/audio/podcasts/30293/episodes/133 [https://pubtv.flfnetwork.com/tabs/audio/podcasts/30293/episodes/133]   We would welcome donations to help us equip pastors [https://givebutter.com/missioncatalyst] in the Chinese house church network I mentioned in my conversation with Doug.
