Just in time for Christmas we are seeing a spike in Christian Persecution Worldwide. From Quebec’s sweeping ban on public prayer to arrests in the UK and France for silent intercession, and the staggering death toll in Nigeria—where over 7,000 Christians have been murdered this year alone. Our guest today is a retired corporate attorney with decades at the top of his field, a committed Catholic Christian, and the bestselling author of Canon Crossfire—now the #1 book in Christian Canon on Amazon. His name is Matthew McWhorter, and he’s here to unpack one of the most urgent issues facing believers today: this global rise of Christian persecution. Matthew brings both legal precision and biblical depth. He warns that governments are codifying the suppression of faith, eroding conscience and speech in ways that threaten the very foundation of liberty. But Matthew doesn’t just speak as a lawyer—he speaks as a scholar of the early Church. And he reminds us: “The original Church was a martyr Church. Pagans became Christians knowing they’d be killed for it. That’s the legacy we inherit—and the cycle we’re entering again.” Stay with us as we dive into the legal, historical, and spiritual dimensions of this unfolding crisis—and what it means for every believer today.
