An Interview style message with Pastor Jim West and Guest Speaker Pastor Andrew Brunson.
Pastor Andrew Brunson is a teaching elder of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church. Brunson was arrested in Turkey, where he had lived since the mid-1990s, in October 2016 during the purges occurring after the 2016 Turkish coup d'état attempt against Recep Tayyip Erdoğan (along with the arrests of tens of thousands of Turkish military personnel, civil servants, educators, academics, dissidents, and journalists). The U.S. government repeatedly called for Brunson’s release, imposing sanctions on two top Turkish government officials and raising tariffs on Turkish products. On October 12, 2018, Brunson was convicted by Turkish authorities, on the charge of aiding terrorism, but sentenced to time served. He was released from Turkish custody and immediately returned to the United States. In 2019, Brunson published a memoir about his ordeal titled God’s Hostage.
