S6E1 - In this powerful episode of Heart of Mission, we sit down with Mila who has been serving in the Middle East for the past six years. Mila shares the challenges, blessings, and lessons learned from her time working among refugees in a region deeply affected by conflict. Through her work as both a medical professional and a disciple-maker, she has gained a unique perspective on the intersection of faith, suffering, and compassion.
In a Muslim-majority region, Mila has learned to guide people through Bible stories and engage them in a journey that starts with curiosity and moves toward a life of faith. We learn about Ruth and Naomi, two Muslim women, with whom Mila has been able to read the Bible and what it looks like see God at work amongst Muslim women and their families. Mila talks about the cultural challenge of weakness and vulnerability being viewed as shameful, but how they also lie at the heart of the gospel and need to be shared! Suffering and grief are all around Mila, yet through it she has remained hopeful, believing that God is at work even in the darkest of places calling for a life of dependence.
