Welcome to the China Compass Podcast on the Fight Laugh Feast network. I am your China Travel Guide Missionary

Ben and I'm here with a good friend and a longtime co-worker in China.

We're going to call her Evangelina.

Today, those of you who know her will obviously recognize the name I think in some sense and

Evangeline has been to China how many times?

I don't know.

14. And that's probably when I first met you in China and then we met.

That sounds right.

some close calls in China doing the different Bible smuggling in ministries we do there but you've been arrested in America?

How do you feel leading up to that?

You know I just I feel so good to know that I'm in the Lord's hands and I'm not going to face anything that he's not going to give me the grace to walk through and I really believe that I won't spend one single day in prison
