In many countries around the world, you pay a heavy price for following the Lord Jesus. Kazakhstan experienced a brief period of religious freedom after the fall of communism. Unfortunately, this also caused Islamic roots in the region to sprout again, with the result that Christians are finding it increasingly difficult to practice their faith.

In this episode, you will hear the story of Fatima, a Uyghur Muslim woman who came to faith through one of our staff members and soon discovered that choosing to follow Jesus can sometimes mean running from your house, holding next to nothing, escaping danger on a shoe and a bare foot.

Lebanon seems to be permanently in the line of fire. Nour's heart was also torn by grief at the loss of family and friends in a bloody massacre. Nevertheless, God did not give up on him, and made him a key figure for the Arab world to find the Lord Jesus online.

This episode tells how restoration came to a village—funeral by funeral, wedding by wedding. And how the love of God came to a Syrian man, as he read his way to faith. But it also testifies of a Muslim risking his life for a local church, paying for it by imprisonment, where he met the Lord Jesus in Person.

One day, Eunice clicked on an ad for a free online Bible study from GlobalRize that she saw on Facebook. Because it is difficult to get a good, Biblical education in Vietnam, Eunice asked her mentor if she could translate the course. Her mentor then introduced her to the language team coach, who asked her to become the language team leader for Vietnam. When the Lord confirmed her to do so, Eunice became the Vietnamese team leader. And especially because she knows what it is to live in darkness, she longs to reach others with the Gospel.
