American pastor Andrew Brunson, recently freed after nearly two years of detention in Turkey, has asked God for “supernatural wisdom” for President Donald Trump.
Trump and Brunson are meeting Saturday at the White House shortly after Brunson returned to the U.S.
Brunson told Trump that “you really fought for us.”
