It is the Word - Jenny & Yiming - Part Two
Yiming grew up in China under the one-child policy with a strong emphasis on education and study. There was very little exposure to the Gospel in his formative years. He tells a story of his father being given a Bible, but he was discouraged from reading it for fear it would be a distraction.
Yiming encouraged church leaders and staff to keep persevering and even though, in his case, there was not an immediate change that occurred in his life the seeds planted took root and over the course of years, encouragement from his wife, and many sermons, he started a relationship with Jesus.
