#375 What It's Like To Live In A Country Where Being A Christian Is Against The Law 3/31/23

“ The paths we are going down are 2000 years old.” - John Imagine waking up knowing that today could be the day that you could be caught and found guilty by your family and by the court system and the only “crime” you are guilty of is following Jesus. About 1 in 8 Christians are in countries that it is illegal to follow Jesus openly. It’s even higher in Africa at 1 in 6 (https://www.forbes.com/.../one-in-eight-christians.../...) On this weeks show Kurt and Chad welcome “Phillip” and his son John, to talk about following Jesus in North Africa, especially in Egypt and the challenges that come along with it, as well as the advantages, being in a place where the Gospel is not supposed to grow. In this part of the world, there’s just ONE Christian missionary for every 400,000 people. “Phillip” was attacked physically as a young man in college because of his faith almost 50 years ago. It did not keep him from the faith, but spurred him on. His son is now following in his footsteps, on a path that leads to almost certain resistance, and God’s power and grace. Would you lose it all from earth’s perspective to gain it all from Heaven’s? (That’s the call on our lives!) To contact this ministry: [email protected]
