Christ Preached to Cannibals - The Beauty & Power of The Gospel

CrossPolitic Show

They guys are joined by Missionary Ben to talk about John G. Paton and his perseverance on the island of Tanna.

B.F. Westen (Ben) was deported from China in 2018 after serving as a missionary for fifteen years in Gansu Province.

His passion is to help Christians pray more strategically for China (PrayforChina.us), while also helping to mobilize a new generation of missionaries from both Latin America and the English speaking world (PrayGiveGo.us).

He has blogged on missions since 2006 (chinacall.substack.com) and tweeted (mostly to himself) since 2009 (@chinaadventures). One of his early articles (My Burden For The Truly Unreached) was featured in a well-known John Piper sermon (Holy Ambition: Paul’s and Yours).

He is the editor of a new edition of the classic biography of millionaire missionary William Borden (BordenofYale.com - Jan 1, 2024), who shared his burden for China’s Gansu Province.

He is currently working on numerous writing projects, including a reboot of his first book, Unbeaten, about being arrested, interrogated, and deported from China (Unbeaten.vip).

And last but not least, a book about the perseverance of John G. Paton on the island of Tanna, which he hopes to release on the 200th Anniversary of Paton's birth: May 24, 2024 (JohnGPaton.com).
