Show notes:

The crackdown in China on various Christian churches

Early Rain Covenant church is Reformed Presbyterian
We can pray for our brothers and sisters
The Chinese governments is still hostile to Christianity

Overcoming Sin and Temptation

Book by John Owen with editors Justin Taylor and Kelly Kapic
Very wholesome book
John Owen is the opposite of a perfectionist (in the doctrinal sense that we can become perfectionists)
One of the blessings that comes from reading this is that he hates sin intensely

Harmartiology

“Anatrepo” refers to the destructive effect of false teaching on wholesome Christian living
2 Tim. 2:18, Tit. 1:11
