Lastly, to learn more about our ministry endeavors or get one of my missionary biographies, visit PrayGiveGo.us! Why did I begin this weekly Prison Pulpit series? To remind us all to pray for persecuted pastors and believers (such as Pastor Wang Yi) as Hebrews 13:3 teaches us to do (“as bound with them”), by sharing from his own published writings in China, as well as anecdotes from other persecuted ministers who have gone before, such as Richard Wurmbrand. Also, here’s my own humble attempt at expositing Hebrews 13:3: https://chinacall.substack.com/p/remember-my-chains Today we are going to talk about praying for the children of persecuted pastors/believers… Praying for Christian Children in China https://chinapartnership.org/blog/2025/07/fuzhou-how-to-pray/ Next, I want to read some excerpts from an interview I found of Michael Wurmbrand, the now 80+ year old son of Richard Wurmbrand and founder of the Richard Wurmbrand Foundation. BTW, Michael does NOT recommend the ministry of Voice of the Martyrs, which he helped to found many decades ago. He was fired from the ministry more than ten years ago, when he demanded a more broad inquiry into the travels and contacts of former VOM director, Tom White, who committed suicide in VOM’s Bartlesville, OK, warehouse in 2012, after allegations surfaced of him molesting a ten year old girl. (Read his “Open Letter” about VOM here: https://www.billionbibles.com/michael-wurmbrand-vom.html) Michael Wurmbrand also runs another ministry, Help For Refugees, focused primarily on his native Romania, and has made all of his father’s books (and formerly unpublished writings) available for free since VOM continues to use his parents’ likeness and writings without his permission. I personally support Wurmbrand’s Help for Refugees monthly and love getting their newsletter with previously unpublished reflections by Richard Wurmbrand included each month. Now, without further ado, let’s work through much of the following interview, which covers key events in Michael Wurmbrand’s very difficult childhood in communist Romania… Michael (aka, Mihai) Talks About His Childhood Suffering https://www.richardwurmbrandfoundation.com/pdfs/michael-wurmbrand-interview.pdf Follow China Compass Follow or subscribe to China Compass on whichever platform you use.

This podcast episode features a lively discussion between Andrew Rappaport and Caleb Gordon, centered on the importance of evangelism and the upcoming Built to Conquer Conference in Bartlesville, Oklahoma. Rappaport emphasizes that the first step in discipleship is evangelism, urging listeners to overcome their fears and share the gospel, which is fundamentally about inviting others into a relationship with Jesus. The conversation also highlights common excuses people use to avoid evangelism, such as fear of rejection or feeling unprepared. Both hosts agree that understanding the reality of hell and the urgency of sharing the good news should motivate believers to act. Listeners are encouraged to attend the conference for practical strategies in evangelism and to connect with like-minded individuals committed to advancing the kingdom.Andrew Rappaport welcomes listeners to a thought-provoking discussion on the critical role of evangelism in the Christian faith, emphasizing its connection to discipleship. He highlights the upcoming Built to Conquer conference in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, where he and other speakers will engage attendees on biblical evangelism. The conversation with Caleb Gordon dives into the barriers many Christians face when sharing their faith, such as fear of rejection or lack of knowledge. They challenge listeners to reconsider these fears by reflecting on the eternal implications of not sharing the gospel. Rappaport asserts that understanding the reality of hell can motivate believers to overcome their hesitations, as those who truly grasp the stakes are driven to communicate the hope found in Christ. Furthermore, they explore practical ways to initiate gospel conversations in everyday scenarios, demonstrating that evangelism can be both accessible and impactful. The episode intricately weaves personal anecdotes with theological insights, illustrating that the essence of evangelism lies in sharing the transformative message of Christ's sacrifice and grace. Rappaport argues for a proactive approach, encouraging believers to create opportunities for dialogue about faith rather than waiting for perfect moments to present themselves. This proactive stance is underscored by their humorous exchange about cold plunges, a metaphor for the discomfort often associated with evangelism, yet ultimately rewarding. The episode serves as a call to action for evangelistic fervor and a reminder of the joy and purpose that comes from sharing one's faith with others.Takeaways: Andrew Rappaport emphasizes the importance of evangelism as a fundamental part of discipleship, which often gets overlooked in churches. The Built to Conquer conference on February 22, 2025, in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, focuses on practical evangelism strategies for attendees. Both hosts discuss the fear many people have regarding evangelism and how to overcome it through understanding the urgency of the Gospel. Rappaport and Gordon highlight how sharing the Gospel is akin to sharing great news, comparing it to personal invitations from celebrities or influential figures. The conversation encourages listeners to recognize the eternal significance of sharing their faith with others who might not know Christ. The episode concludes with practical ways to engage in evangelism, including utilizing gospel tracks and seizing everyday opportunities to share the faith.

This Underdog Ag Podcast features a very inspiring story told by Svetlana (Vysotsky) Hensley, wife of Allen Hensley, of Agua Dulce, Texas. Although she ended up in Texas, Svetlana spent the first five years of her life in Lviv, Ukraine. Then, because of religious persecution (even imprisonment), her parents, Igor and Nadia, fled to the United States with very little money, only the belongings they could carry, each other, and their faith in the risen Christ. Listen to Svetlana talk about her journey to the United States, that began when she was a tearful child at a train station in the Ukraine. So sad to leave her home, her friends, and her life there, little did she know a church and community in Oklahoma was preparing to welcome the family with open arms. This story is one of gratitude, humor, endurance, love, and faith. A fitting story to move us as we celebrate the birth of Jesus. Thank you, Allen Hensley, for recognizing the precious gift your wife and her story are to the world. Thank you, Svetlana, for your willingness to share your journey. P.S. There are a few surprises along the way in this interview too. Such as, we may know the source of those mysterious crop circles that pop up at times. Also, the power of mowing your lawn and more.In honor of Svetlana's father, I am also sharing her father's obituary below so that the story may live on in the hearts of those who read it:  Igor Fedorovich Vysotsky, age 77, entered through the eternal gates of Heaven peacefully on Wednesday, July 3, 2024, in the comfort of his home. Igor is survived by his loving wife, Nadia (Gavrilov) Vysotsky, and his six children, Miroslav Vysotsky (wife Natasha) of Roseville, CA; Lilia Otten (husband James) of Bartlesville, OK; Nelya DeSpain (husband Brady) of Talala, OK; Igor Jr. Vysotsky (wife Lauren) of Cypress, TX; Svetlana Hensley (husband Allen) of Agua Dulce, TX; Isaya Vysotsky (wife Aileen) of Tampa, FL; and 21 grandchildren: Sara, Breyden, Alexis, Emily, Ethyn, Leah, Baylie, Trystan, Mia, Melana, Abram, Jonah, Eli, Miryk, Adelade, Levi, Silas, Kirym, Samuel, Magdalene, and Maverik.Igor was born on January 25, 1947 in Matsoshyn (village near Lviv) Ukraine to Fedir and Agafia Vysotsky. He was the seventh of their eight children together. Igor attended and graduated from the Matsoshyn school house (completing grades 1-8; and prevented from pursuing higher education because of his Christian beliefs) after which he attended mechanical and technical trade schools where he earned mechanic and electrician certifications. Igor then completed 2 years of compulsory military service and entered the workforce in Lviv Ukraine. This turned out to be a fortunate location for Igor, as he began attending a local home-based church where he met, courted, and married his bride, Nadia, who would remain his life-long spouse for over 54 years, and would be by his side until his last breath on this earth. As the patriarch of a growing family, Igor worked for various state owned/run enterprises and was often held back from promotions or outright fired for his beliefs and his refusal to live out his Faith in secret. The ongoing persecution for his Christian beliefs strained his ability to provide for his family and he often had two to three menial jobs and drove a gypsy cab during non-working hours to make ends meet. This was simply the way of life for true Believers under the oppressive regime of the Soviet Union and became a theme of his ongoing struggle for freedom to worship and to live a life that God called him to live. Aside from the “softer” persecution of career and professional development limitations, Igor also experienced direct punishment for playing Christian worship music in the privacy of his own home. He and his pastor were imprisoned for over 40 days after being reported to the authorities by a neighbor. Igor was prepared to serve a much longer sentence but was unexpectedly released without explanation. Although Igor was able to feed and clothe his children, he and Nadia recognized that it would be a difficult future for their family to build a life they wanted under their circumstances in Ukraine. Together, they made the difficult decision to renounce their citizenship, sell-off or give away most of their possessions, pack up their suitcases with whatever remained, and leave their homeland behind with five children in tow, in pursuit of freedoms of opportunity and above all, the freedom to live and worship their God as He had called them to. They found this freedom in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, having been sponsored by First Assembly of God Church. The Vysotsky family arrived in the USA on November 4, 1989, where they began the second act of their life. Igor and Nadia embraced the opportunities that America afforded anyone lucky enough to reside inside its borders. They learned a new language, maximized their work opportunities (working just as hard as they had in Soviet Union but reaped the benefits of their labor), became business owners, sponsored other family members to immigrate to the States, raised their five Ukrainian born children and added one American born, and welcomed sons and daughters in law into the family. Above any material gains, Igor and Nadia were blessed with 21 grandchildren whom Igor considered his greatest success and best part of his legacy. Igor was a man of few words but managed to speak volumes in the way that he lived his life for his children to observe and model after. He lived out his faith by example in his daily devotional time, in reading his Bible, in private prayers and fasting, church attendance and giving. He also taught life skills and deep personal convictions and virtues that his kids have adopted by living those out in the person that he was rather than verbal teaching. He taught the importance of effort, to do tasks the best that one had the capacity to do them, to mind the fine details, the willingness to learn and to try something new, the confidence to tackle seemingly insurmountable challenges, the necessity of humor in life, the virtues of sincerity, honesty, justice, gratitude, and servanthood. Igor had a critical eye for detail, offered strong and unfiltered opinions, and quick wit and a dry sense of humor that he employed regularly to entertain himself and those around him; all qualities that have been embraced and adopted by his kids and grandkids. Igor suffered a stroke in September 2022 that limited his mobility and contributed to his passing on July 3, 2024. He lived a full life and leaves behind a legacy that he could not have imagined during his humble beginnings in the village of Matsoshyn. He lived a life worthy of remembrance. A life that our God called him to live. Igor followed and obeyed and through the many trying times of imprisonment, persecution, loss of earthly possessions, and loss of health, his faith never wavered. He now spends his time in Heaven with the One he loved and trusted all his days on Earth. Obituary source: https://www.davisfamilyfuneralhome.com/m/obituaries/Igor-Vysotsky/Memories --Be sure to rate, review, and subscribe.HOST: Kerry HoffschneiderGUEST:  Svetlana Hensley--CREDITS:Mitchell Roush, ProducerBibi Luevano, Cover ArtPurple Planet Music, Theme

Known for his innovative designs, Wright's influence is evident in this 1956 building, standing tall at 50,000 square feet. It's a unique mix of art deco and mid-century modern styles, reminiscent of a Manhattan skyscraper, though it sits in the heart of America's plains.Originally commissioned by oil magnate Harold C. Price, this architectural marvel is a striking oddity in Bartlesville, constructed during the mid-20th century boom.

William J. Carl - Assassin's Manuscript - Writing Techniques, Thriller Novel, and Fiction vs Non-Fiction. This is episode 668 of Teaching Learning Leading K12, an audio podcast. Once a pastor, seminary president, professor, and US Senate Guest Chaplain, William J. Carl, Ph.D., is a Greek Scholar, award-winning screenwriter, playwright, poet, and lyricist. With the recent publication of Assassin's Manuscript, he is now the author of a thriller. He earned his Ph.D. from the University of Pittsburgh in Rhetoric and Communication. In 2013 he was given Pitt's Golden Medallion Award as a Distinguished Alumnus and was named one of 200 most influential leaders out of 300,000 living alums globally. Dr. Carl has spoken at dozens of leading schools, including Oxford, Cambridge, Princeton, Carnegie Mellon, Cornell, and Boston University. He has spoken in 40 states across the United States and in Russia, South Africa, India, Rwanda, Taiwan, Canada, South Korea, and China. He has lectured on the brain at medical conferences and medical schools since 2000. For 22 years, he appeared every third week on the ABC television affiliate in Dallas. He was also interviewed on the PBS affiliate in Dallas, discussing the tensions between Christians, Muslims and Jews in the Middle East where his main theme was finding common ground. The author of eight non-fiction books (two translated into Korean) and 75 articles and reviews for religious publications, his screenplay, Maggie's Perfect Match, was the winner of the Telluride Indiefest Screenwriting Contest. He earned his bachelor's degree from the University of Tulsa, where in 1970 was named “Man of the Year”. He received his Masters of Divinity from Louisville Presbyterian Seminary where he was the Patterson Fellow in Greek and named a Distinguished Alumnus in 2007. He received honorary doctorates from Presbyterian College, Sterling College, and Waynesburg College. Carl is presently the Founder and CEO of LeConte Publishing, LLC, and Partner and Founding Board Member of Briggs Development Group (briggsintl.com). He is also the former President of Pittsburgh Theological Seminary. Born in Broken Arrow, OK, he grew up in Bartlesville, OK. He has lived in Chicago, Tulsa, Louisville, Richmond, Dallas, Pittsburgh, and Birmingham. He resides in Maryville, TN.   A little bit about Assassin's Manuscript: When former CIA assassin Adam Hunter's last hit goes awry, he attempts to leave behind his world of espionage and murder by embarking on a career in ministry. But soon, he is pulled back in to crack a code hidden in an ancient manuscript in order to foil a terrorist plot. In the meantime, Renie Ellis, a lawyer in the small town he's moved to gets caught up in his dilemma and falls in love with him, not realizing he killed her fiancé by accident. What will she do when she finds out who Adam really is? The heist of a famous Codex from the British Museum, Papal intrigue in the Vatican, both Sicilian and Russian Mafia, and a US President who knows more than she admits all play key roles in a story that keeps the reader guessing until the end, a conclusion that no one sees coming. From Rome to Jerusalem, from Egypt's Mt. Sinai to Tennessee's Smoky Mountains, the characters scramble for their lives, racing the clock to prevent an international disaster.

Today Zoe and Easton are unraveling a complex yet fascinating story connecting a solar eclipse in 1806 to a future president, Chief Anderson's ascension to Chiefdom, and a pan-indigenous movement led by a Tecumseh and Tenskwatawa- the man that many remember as 'The prophet.' They won't be alone however. Our curator of Native American history and life, Sara Schumacher, is back with us, setting the historical stage and teaching us who the fascinating figures that make up this story are and how they got here. Later on, the former Assistant Chief of the Delaware Tribe of Indians in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, and was a longtime cultural ambassador and Historical Interpreter here at Conner Prairie, Mike Pace, makes his podcast debut to recount his experiences as a member of the Lenape nation and explore the long-term impacts that the often overlooked indigenous population have on our state of Indiana as well as our nation.   Our sources:   Badger, Joseph and Day, Henry Noble.

When I first moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma, I mentioned in the show that something I was most excited about was seeing new things that many if not most have never seen. There was something on my list from day one and I finally had the chance to go and do this. Visit Price Tower. For those not familiar; The Price Tower in Bartlesville, Oklahoma is an absolutely exquisite creation of Frank Lloyd Wright. It is constructed of concrete in a very unique shape. Four quadrants based on the geometry of  a 30-60-90 double parallelogram.  It was based on the idea for a Manhattan cluster of buildings designed and then scraped in 1929 due to the great depression. The Price Tower was designed and built for Harold C. Price to serve as the headquarters for his oil and gas pipeline company. The building was designed to be mixed-use and was opened to the public in February, 1956.  Designer Resources ThermaSol - Redefining the modern shower experience. Episode 271 featuring Mitch Altman Moya Living -  Beautiful, durable powder coated kitchen, bath & outdoor kitchen cabinetry Design Hardware - A stunning and vast collection of jewelry for the home! The Oasis Alliance - Providing design to those in need. ICAA Southern California - SoCal is Southern California's preeminent resource on classical architecture and the allied arts. Materials Used: The building is primarily made of concrete with heavy use of wood, copper and other materials regularly found in Wright's work. heavy use of copper, stamped concrete in Cherokee Red can be found alongside the natural wood and use of greens and golds. The wallpaper used as well as fabrics designed for Schumacher as part of his Taliesin line can be found as well as his unique style of lighting and a significant amount of art are all present. There are unique pieces present that were designed and then sent to local companies to create. They include cast aluminum chairs by the Blue Stem Foundry Mixed Use. What makes this building unlike any other example of Frank Lloyd Wright architecture is that this is a “skyscraper”, to be considered by him and others as the only one he ever built. FLW was interested with how people lived. His definition for a skyscraper was not dissimilar to how streets showcase horizontal society, this was made to be vertical an accomplish similar purpose. As such, this was his example of a live/ work environment and incorporated many floors to serve as separate zones for separate purposes. Because the building is supported by the four elevator towers and not the floors themselves, FLW was able to imagine the space almost like a tree with the elevator columns as trunk, floors as branches and copper installation as leaves. My Experience: This visit was amazing for me. I received an incredible tour by a gentleman named Price Connors and later sat down  with Price for an interview which you are about to hear. If you check out the show notes, you will find links to some IG reels showcasing video from this visit. Of note, check out how FLW wanted you to live in the spaces he creates. Check out the amazing views and try to imagine as I did that you were in a tree house, because that is how it felt to me. The day I visited, I learned that the building has been sold to Copper Tree, Inc. for the debt and a $10M promise to refurbish the building. I had never heard of Copper Tree and thought, what a unique name for a company interested in refurbishing this particular building. I did a little digging and learned that Copper Tree is a relatively new company, an investment company created for the purpose of acquiring and preserving iconic buildings. I sat down with Price Connors who is an absolute wealth of knowledge and who both gave e a guided tour of The Price Tower, and sat down for an extensive interview about this truly unique project. I hope you enjoy hearing from Connors as much as I enjoyed speaking with him. For images and video shorts from my time at The Price Tow...

Wichita Man Charged with Child Murder Has LONG History Of Abuse

In a chilling development, Thomas Ross Gatewood, a 51-year-old man from Wichita, Kansas, already facing murder charges in connection with the death of his 8-year-old daughter, has now been slapped with multiple child sex crime charges, escalating the severity of his case. This horrific incident underscores the urgency to safeguard our children and confront child abuse in our society.    According to court records, Gatewood, who stood in the Sedgwick County District Court on Tuesday, has been indicted with one count of rape of a child under 14, two counts of aggravated criminal sodomy of a child under 14, and aggravated indecent liberties with a child, purportedly committed in 2018. While attorneys or law enforcement officials have not publicly disclosed the specifics of the case, each of these charges carries a life imprisonment sentence, further intensifying the grim fate awaiting Gatewood.    On June 27, Gatewood was indicted with first-degree felony murder relating to his daughter's death, Jeanetta Gatewood. In addition to this, he faced charges of child abuse, aggravated kidnapping, aggravated endangering of a child, and aggravated intimidation of a witness or victim. Jeanetta's tragic death occurred on May 8 at their residence in Wichita, with charges alleging Gatewood to have tortured or cruelly beaten his daughter, leading to her demise.    These alarming revelations have cast a pall over the community, as residents grapple with the monstrous crimes allegedly committed by one of their own. A long-time neighbor, requesting anonymity, offered a glimpse into Gatewood's private life, recalling seeing Gatewood regularly but only seeing one of his daughters once.    Gatewood's history paints a disturbing pattern of abuse. In 2006, an investigation in Minneapolis into Gatewood and his wife following the death of a child from meningitis revealed that the child had bruises, skull fractures, and rib injuries and was never taken to the hospital. No charges were filed despite the detective's request to charge Gatewood and his wife with medical neglect.    By 2009, Gatewood's family had moved to Oklahoma, where officials removed two children from the family home following the discovery of severe bruises on the toddler, who was unable to walk and talk. The toddler had not received medical attention for her injuries, a decision justified by Gatewood's wife due to fear of her children being taken away. Gatewood admitted to bruising the toddler while spanking her excessively.    Gatewood received a one-year jail sentence in the Bartlesville case, while his wife was convicted of enabling child abuse by injury, receiving a sentence of 180 days in jail. Court documents reveal that Gatewood had a criminal history dating back to the 1990s, including charges of aggravated battery, aggravated assault, and battery in Wichita or Riley counties.    As the case unfolds, our thoughts remain with the victims of these horrifying crimes. It's a stern reminder for us all that vigilance and prompt action are essential in combating child abuse and protecting our most vulnerable members. Hopefully, justice will be served for the innocent lives tragically affected by these crimes. Want to listen to ALL our Podcasts AD-FREE?
