To Wonder If ”Unreached Peoples” Should Be Reached (the John Chau Incident) (#5)

John Chau was a 26 year old American missionary who managed to get himself smuggled to North Sentinel Island, an island in the Bay of Bengal, between India and Mayanmar, home of somewhere between 20 and 200 members of a completely unreached people group. He was killed back in November, by the islanders' spears thrown from a distance. His story is not unique in the history of Christian missions, but it brings important questions back to the surface of Christian worldwide dialogue. Today's guests are Calvary Chapel pastor Andy Hirschman and Dr. David Leong, missiologist and author at Seattle Pacific University.Dreher blog post: https://www.theamericanconservative.com/dreher/death-of-a-missionary-john-allen-chau/Ruth Graham post: https://slate.com/human-interest/2018/12/john-allen-chau-missionary-death-christian-north-sentinel-island.htmlDavid Leong: https://spu.edu/academics/seattle-pacific-seminary/seminary-faculty/leong-davidBadchristiancon.comJoin the Patreon for bonus episodes every month: patreon.com/dankochYHP Patron-only FB group: https://tinyurl.com/ycvbbf98Website: youhavepermissionpod.comJoin Dan's email list: dankochwords.comArtwork by http://sprungle.co/
