Greetings, Dana, how are you doing tonight?
Speaker 1 (04:52):
I'm doing good.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
How are you doing doing great?
Speaker 3 (04:55):
It's good to be back here finally after a while. Yeah,
technical difficulties and everything else, so it's good to be back.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Yes, and equipment upgrade. So we've been working on a
number of things. So upfront we're going to be a
special feature we have. We take a post and tell
you about it and break down the post, and so upfront,
(05:35):
Righteous Christians murdered Now this is from our persecution advocacy.
This is one of our shows and you can find
this at warndashusa dot com. The Righteous finds us again
(06:08):
looking into the abyss of darkness where people find themselves.
Yet the light of Christ shines and delivers men from
that grip of sin to find salvation. Today we look
(06:30):
at Christians murdered believers in Christ's sentenced for spreading the Gospel.
The righteous globally face persecution. This week, believers are murdered, sentence, persecuted,
and they also find the strength of Christ Jesus and
(06:51):
the power of His Spirit to move forward with the
gospel message of redemptive power in the face of opposition
danger from others who jealously guard against the message of Christ.
Despite opposition, hearts of unbelievers give their deference to the
(07:12):
love of God in Christ Jesus and find the hope
and joy of salvation, forgiveness and joy of restoration, the
Cross of Christ and the resurrection of our Savior as
given the believers who spread the message the courage and
stalwart faith to see people redeemed despite the dangers, martyrs
(07:36):
of faith and the imprisonment of many. The results of
the battles serve notice to the devil that the power
of God in Christ will deliver the message of hope
that breaks all the bondage's people face, turning them from
unbelievers and a lost people into dynamic voices and evangels
(08:00):
who walk in Christ's name and the power of His Spirit.
So you can listen to this show, and you can
share this post as well, and just go over to
Warndashusa dot com and we have a scripture from Purce
(08:20):
Peter three twelve through sixteen. For the eyes of the
Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open
unto their prayers. But the face of the Lord is
against them who do evil? And who is he that
will harm you? If you be followers of that which
(08:41):
is good? But and if you suffer for righteousness sake,
happy are you, and be not afraid of their terror.
Neither be troubled, but sanctify the Lord God in your hearts,
and be ready always to give an answer to every
man that asketh you a reason of the hope that
(09:02):
is in you, with meekness and fear, having a good conscience,
that whereas they speak evil of you, as of evil doers,
they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation
in Christ you know, and that is comforting. You know
(09:23):
these scriptures when you look at.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
That, yes it is.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
And you know there's a lot of opposition to the
to the scriptures and to Christians. But yet we're seeing
massive revivals and even the Christians overseas that are persecuted
are seeing people saved and delivered.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
And they're standing strong in their faith.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Yes, so be sure to pray for the persecuted church.
And if you can, donate, and there's a lot of
different organizations, but we encourage you to donate to those
ministries that have boots on the ground like Global Christian
Relief dot org, Persecution dot com, and barnabas Aid dot
(10:12):
org and these are just a few. And if you
have trouble knowing who to donate to, stop buy our
website and give us a message through the contact page.
Be sure to give your email. We'll write you back
and we'll give you a list of people you can
These are solid ministries and they've been doing this for
(10:36):
a long time. So don't forget the person you're Brethren
in Christ. Okay, we're doing.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
Hey, Jesus Christ is real And this is an expert
XP clipped from Jesus himself came to me in a dream.
Spiritual revolution in unfolding in Kazakhstan. Excuse me, and this
(11:13):
is from CBN News.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Excuse me.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
The Wigers have been Muslims for almost a millennium, so
it's a mindset that's been ingrained into their mentality and lifestyle.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Rico exclaimed.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
Explained in recent years, though things have been changing, more
and more Wagers are discovering Christianity, some through personal transformation,
others through the influence of outreach in their rural villages.
There are roughly about three hundred thousand Wigers who today
(11:48):
live in this country. Roughly three hundred of them belonged
to the small evangelical community. One of those believers is Golnyza.
She comes from a Muslim background and for five years
struggled with chronic illness. I was unwell and couldn't leave
my home for five years, Goniza told Cibian News. I
(12:13):
would read the Koran and pray Muslim ritual prayers and
went to Mulah's or those that used tarot cards, but
couldn't find any help. But then Goalnesa says something changed.
Jesus appeared to her in a dream. Jesus himself came
to me in a great dream. Goldniza recounted, I had
(12:36):
something like a ball and white cord in my hand,
and it was unraveling, and the road was white, and
Jesus said, it's ours, and he smiled at me. At first,
Goldniza didn't know who this Jesus was, but she was
determined to find out. I looked for Jesus' images online,
(12:56):
and then I realized that he was like the man
in my dream who was dressed in white and bright
light was emanating from him. Now she's part of a
small house church in the village. It's led by Marat
and Nerliksa, who moved here from Western I can't say
(13:22):
that Kajikistan, Kazakhstan. To share the gospel with the Wigers.
Life here is very difficult, very difficult, Nerliksa told CBN News.
When we moved here for the first time, we were
in shock for the entire week. We didn't know what
to do. We lived in a barn, didn't have any money.
(13:45):
We were sitting and crying about what we should do.
We started to pray and we heard Jesus's voice. Don't cry,
my son and my daughter. I will give you strength.
Whatever I tell you, just do it, and they did.
Two years later, about a dozen people now attend their
weekly service. My wife and I are praying that God
(14:08):
will touch everyone among the weaker community here so that
they would all hear the good news and spread God's word.
That's the reason we are here, said Marat, who co
pastors the House Church. The excerpt is from Jesus Himself
(14:28):
came to me in a dream spiritual revolution enfolding in Kazakhstan.
And you can go to CBN dot com and look
for Jesus Himself came to me in a dream to
read more of the story.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
And now back to you.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
I'm going to go back to a story we skipped
and this is ICC partners with IRF Indonesia. International Christian Organization,
the International Christian concern recently part partnered with the International
(15:13):
Institute for Religious Freedom to support their Violent Incidents Database. Now,
the Violent Incident Database is the first of its kind,
and this is important to do because this monitors and
analyzes religious freedom violations worldwide. If you can believe that
(15:38):
the database has recorded more than six hundred thousand incidents
of religious persecution during the past four years.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Six hundred thousand and they've recorded that, isn't that crazy?
How much more hasn't been recorded?
Speaker 1 (15:55):
I don't know. Reliable data is essential to International Christian
Concerns advocacy work. That's according to their advocacy manager mckinna WNT.
It ensures that are pleased to governments and policy makers
(16:18):
are backed by undeniable evidence. ICC is honored to partner
with the IRF on this innovative project. Now I like this,
I really do. We look forward to the ways that
will strengthen our advocacy for persecuted Christians worldwide. And it
(16:39):
helps people to believe what you're telling them that the
database tracks religious freedom violations in five continents. Seeing that's
just five continents. Monitoring incidences ranging from arrests and abductions
to sexual assaults and killings now relies on publicly sourced information.
(17:03):
Many incidents are never made public or covered by the news,
and often many Christians fear the backlash that they might
face if they try to bring their perpetrators to justice.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
And that's what the perpetrators love, their fears.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
Yeah, that's exactly. Through this collaboration, ICC intends to use
the VID to expose and respond to the growing persecution
of Christians around the world. Went said. By integrating the
data into or our projects, reports, and conversations with policymakers,
(17:39):
we aim to highlight the urgent need per meaningful action
on the behalf of our brothers and sisters in Christ
and that's true. That's what we need, meaningful action. Now
you can access this violent incident's database yourself by going
to h TTS semi colon forward slash forward slash I
(18:07):
I r F dot global that's I I r F
dot global and you will be able to you'll see
it right there. It's right on a web page. Now
we also, I'm going to have a couple more here
before Tera has another one tower does. Now this is
(18:32):
in Afghanistan and this comes from SAT seven USA. Now.
SAT seven is a satellite broadcast network and they're really
these tools are absolutely important. Now this is for Afghanistan.
(18:54):
A viewer from Turkey says of SAT seven, I'm deeply
grateful for you precious prayers and encouraging programs. There is
no church here, but thanks to you, I never feel alone,
you know. I think that's so important.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
It is.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
I feel sad that they don't have any other Christians around.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
I pray more will come.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Well, you know, we get spoiled. We get spoiled in America,
you know, because you know, we got them around us
all the time. As restrictions on women's freedoms and intensify
in Afghanistan, an innovating, innovative social media program is giving
(19:44):
a platform to silenced voices and offering an encounter with
Jesus to people in desperate need of peace. The Church
with the Letter for Afghanistan, which launched in twenty twenty two,
is now in its third season. Now this has launched
(20:05):
fighting over SAT seven, so you know, and a lot
of times you know, they do provide radio. There's a
way to listen to these and attracting over two hundred
thousand views to its live weekly broadcast on Facebook and
(20:28):
Instagram since last year.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
Oh, this is that's amazing since January this year. That's amazing.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Yeah. The latest season features three regular slots presented by
Afghan women, a powerful segment in a context for their
presence in society has been systematically oppressed. One of the slots,
presented by Helen, is a teaching series exploring key female
(20:55):
Biblical figures, including Tamar, rayhab Lee, Rebecca, and Hagar. Another
female contributor is Tebe, who shares a short Christian reflection
each episode, and doctor Tina, psychologist provides advice to help
her fellow Afghans overcome the mental, emotional, and spiritual consequences
(21:19):
of violence and other traumatic events. Now SAT seven Para's
Multi Media Senior Director Reza said, the presence of Afghan women,
Christian women and experts on this show is not only
a declaration of faith, but a proclamation of dignity and
(21:44):
a beacon to Afghan women everywhere that they have to
have a voice in the Kingdom of God. Since the
Taliban took over Afghanistan in twenty twenty one, women and
girls have seen their rights and freedoms destroyed, including access
(22:05):
to education and employment.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
That is so tragic, yep.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
The latest human rights report by the UN Mission to Afghanistan,
published in May, found that the Taliban have followed through
on decrees aimed at erasing women from public life in
the country and restricting their freedom of movement in The
report also found an increase in repressive restrictions on media
(22:32):
outlets and the clamp down on religious freedom. You know,
I just absolutely.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
That's just horrific, Yeah, very disturbing.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
The church for Afghanistan, viewer Nator feels intense isolation. We
no longer have the freedom to gather in home prayer meetings.
He said. Please keep Afghanistan in our people in your
prayers for freedom amen through Bible teaching, worship, prayer and
testimonies in the Afghan languages Dari and Pashtu in the
(23:12):
Church for Afghanistan is helping people like nat Or grow
in their faith and the participatory nature of the program
provides a real sense of fellowship and connection. Viewers are
not passive, they are part of the story. Reesa said.
They send in prayers, share testimonies and connect live with
(23:35):
the growing community of believers who remind them that they
are not alone. You know, that is so important.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
It is, it is and I'm glad that SAT seven
is out there getting the word out and bringing.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
And so you hip. You can go to SAT the
number seven USA dot org. Sat SAT the number seven
USA dot org and you can find out more about it.
(24:09):
You can donate and help them out. And that's the
real key. We want to help them reach these people
and make a way for them. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:23):
Church for Afghanistan stands as a prophetic voice offering not
just a message, but a home and safe community, a
family and a future in Christ.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
I like that. Yeah, Praise the Lord.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Now we're in India and you can go to Persecution
dot org and that is international Christian Concern and that's
who has this article and you can go by and
check out that they do and also donate to help
them reach out. Three years ago, Manu, a thirty seven
(25:07):
year old day labor in Chattisgar, India, came to faith
in Jesus after experiencing a miraculous healing. Then, roughly two
months ago, he started to pay a price for his
Christian faith. I was thrown out of my house because
I followed Jesus, he told International Christian Concern. Manu is
(25:28):
one of the hundreds of Christians who have been evicted
from their homes banned from their villages in Chattisgar because
of their faith in Jesus. Hindu nationalists, who want Indy
to be a purely Hindu nation are increasingly forcing Christians
become homeless and destitute. The goal of the violent attacks
(25:51):
is to force the believers to return to Hinduism. Manu,
his wife, and their two children have taken shelter in
a temper very bamboo shed since May twenty fir. My
children are getting sick ever since we moved into this shed.
Man who said the small bamboo shed does not protect
(26:14):
us from rain, wind and extreme weather. This shed was
used as a chicken shed prior to occupation, with no
facilities for people to live. The persecution didn't end with
the family losing their property. Hindu villages villagers also shunned
(26:35):
the family, preventing men from purchasing products from vendors and
hindering menu from employment. I was denied peaceful existence, he said.
People in the village knew I was socially boycotted, that
they should not associate with me and my family. They
(26:57):
knew they should not employ for any kind of daily
wage work in the village. And the little iron goes
towards medical expenses, and I struggle to provide sufficient food
to my wife and children. That's horrible.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
That is awful.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
When asked what keeps him from giving up his faith,
he's quick to answer, Jesus gave me life, he gave
me peace. I'm willing to make any sacrifice and bear
all these hardships. I know it's all worth it.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
Yeah, Yeah, make a way for him and his family.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
And so you can go to International Christian Concern and
find out more about all the things they're doing to
help the brothers and sisters in christ. You can donate.

Khaleigue couldn't sleep the night before his freedom, asked the
Holy Spirit to waken hearts with that same expectant hope
for the future in the brick kilns throughout Pakistan. Let
(28:58):
us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm,
for God can be trusted to keep his promise Hebrews twelve,
twenty three. And be sure to get your copy of

Ebook can be found on Google Play. Bible meets Helping
(30:02):
the Poor Bible meets Persecuted in Poor. This is from
Global Christian Relief. It's the article exserup is from the
original article by Chandler Peterson. Chandler is a writer and
editor for Global Christian Relief, where she shares stories of
(30:26):
Christian persecution Bible meets Persecuted in poor. Why helping the
poor is central to Christian life. Helping the poor is
pleasing to God. Proverbs nineteen seventeen indicates that God blesses
(30:48):
those who help the poor. Whoever is kind to the
poor lends to the Lord, and he will reward them
for what they have done. Forty one one similarly states,
blessed are those who have regard for the weak. The
Lord delivers them in times of trouble. We know that
(31:11):
God always called on his people to bless those in need.
He has great compassion for the poor, and he expects
that those who pursue him will follow in his lead.
As Hebrews thirteen sixteen says, do not forget to do
good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices
(31:35):
God is pleased. Yet, as the example of the Church
in Acts shows, helping the poor is more than simply
giving money, clothing, or food to.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
Those in need.
Speaker 3 (31:47):
Although we are called to do these things, these believers
demonstrated that following the way of Jesus requires welcoming the
poor into our midst and identifying with them. Were called
to be kind, not looking down upon the poor or
treating them as means to our own spiritual blessing God's
(32:13):
love for the poor and mournings for the rich. The
New Testament is clear that the poor are not only
close to Jesus heart, but are chosen and blessed by him.
Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the
Kingdom of God, Jesus said in Luke six point twenty.
(32:34):
James echoes this sentiment in James two five. Has not
God chosen those who are poor in the eyes of
the world to be rich in faith and to inherit
the kingdom? He promised those who love him. The poor
are not beneath us. In fact, Jesus often had harsh
(32:56):
words for the wealthy, telling a rich young ruler and
man through nineteen twenty one to sell your possessions and
give to the poor, and you will have treasures in heaven,
and continuing in verse twenty four, it is easier for
a man. It is easier for a camel to go
through the eye of a needle than for someone who
(33:17):
is rich to enter the Kingdom of God. We love
because He first loved us first. Sean four nineteen says
helping the poor is central to the Christian faith. Give
generously to the poor, the oppressed, the hungry, the needy,
and the persecuted because God love. God's love for us
(33:41):
and for those in need is greater than we can comprehend.
By this, the world will know that we are God's followers.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
And now back to you where you can go to.
Speaker 3 (33:59):
International Christian Concern or I'm sorry, that's Global Christian Relief
dot org to help our brothers and sisters in their need.
That's Global Christian Relief.
Speaker 1 (34:18):
Okay, we've got another one from Global Christian Relief. What
freedom means to this Christian family in Pakistan. You know
(34:40):
it always gets me when I look at these Oh,
I know, you know we have faith here. Well, we
don't have the persecution that they have. So it really
does behoove Americans and also so people in Europe and
(35:01):
other places that if they can afford to donate funds
to help the persecuted church, they should do so. Yes. Amen,
So the point of this is what is freedom? Well
(35:22):
to this Christian family in Pakistan, you will find out
my faith has been increase already had faith in God
and God listened to my prayer. I mean that's it.
You know, you don't need to go anywhere else. You know,
(35:46):
my faith been increased. I had faith in God and
he listened to my prayer, which means that he answered
the prayer.
Speaker 2 (35:57):
God is faithful.
Speaker 1 (35:59):
Yeah, persecution of Christian families in Pakistan is it's all
too common, but it's bad. You know. When you're talking
about Pakistan, the same thing goes on in India. Many
Christians are trapped in poverty without access to good jobs.
(36:19):
That's because they, the Muslims, keep all the good ones
and there also are able to be trained, whereas the
Christians the others are not, and so they're trapped in poverty,
no access to good jobs and education, they're left with
(36:42):
no choice, and so they take out predatory loans from
the owners of the brick kilns. And we've been covering
the Blip brick kilns for years, and here it says
where they worked for very little pay and generations can
(37:04):
become trapped in virtual slavery. Now, I can't emphasize to
you enough that this particular thing, you could multiply it
by one hundred. You know. The thing of it is
(37:30):
is that is very very important for you to understand
the persecution and what is exactly going on now. When
Global Christian Relief first met Askar, him and his family
(37:55):
were living in poverty and they worked in a brick kiln,
and so they become enslaved with debt with absolutely hardly
any hope of ever paying them off. And the only
way is through the Christian ministries like Global Christian Relief
(38:18):
and others.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
And barnabas said, is another.
Speaker 1 (38:20):
One, yeah, and paying them off, but they have high
interest and these people once they get in the brick kiln,
generations of them are in bondage. And so as he toiled,
(38:44):
though he prayed for freedom, hoping to one day provide
a better life for his Fortundren and his wife. Now,
thanks to your support, this is global Christian relief. Speaking
of those who support him, his debts were paid. He
(39:07):
started his own business selling vegetables with the help of
a donkey pulling his card.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
That's amazing.
Speaker 1 (39:17):
You know, I just laughed. You know, did he need
a Cadillac? You know, did he need a huge house?
Speaker 3 (39:26):
No?
Speaker 1 (39:28):
All he wanted was to have this thing taken off
his back so he could work and he could get
his house and supply for his family.
Speaker 3 (39:41):
And now he makes close to seven hundred rupees a day.
Speaker 2 (39:45):
I don't know how much money that make. That sounds
like a lot for them.
Speaker 1 (39:50):
Well it is since well you know, they didn't have
hardly any It all went to a debt. Asker has
pop purchased a plot of land on an installment and
he and his family still still live in the brick kiln,
but they hope to leave it soon. In about two
and a half years, the land will be paid for
(40:12):
and he'll be able to begin the process of building
a new home.
Speaker 3 (40:15):
And one of his sons is going to school and
one is working with him.
Speaker 1 (40:21):
And Ascar noted that his family has been able to
enjoy better meals now that his wages at the kiln
are no longer going toward paying off his debts.
Speaker 2 (40:30):
Thank God. Yeah, that's great.
Speaker 1 (40:33):
They purchased a refrigerator, a luxury that was out of
reach when he was still in sleeve. Yeah, you know, America,
you're spoiled.
Speaker 2 (40:43):
Yes, we are.
Speaker 1 (40:43):
You know, so are the other ones.
Speaker 2 (40:45):
We take a lot of things for granted.
Speaker 1 (40:48):
And he says, before we were living in poverty, but
now the situation is getting better. Paith and hope for
the future of their family and having their prayers finally ends,
that has deepened their faith in God. God has released
us from slavery, and now our faith is more, our
trust is increased in God.
Speaker 2 (41:09):
Amen.
Speaker 1 (41:11):
Now instead of praying for freedom, he prays for a
better future. Or this is the wife user it. And
they pray for a better future for their children, three
sons and a daughter. And for the first time, their
children are free to dream big. You know, what can
(41:35):
you say to that dreams? Everybody needs a dream and hope. Yeah,
thank God for this little thing. And that's one thing
Tower and I like to do. In the WYBR we
do have special gifts that to various industries. Global Christian
(42:01):
relief is one and barnabas said, is another persecution dot org.
We have a number of them, and the best thing
is knowing that you can make a difference in people's lives.
(42:25):
You know, I don't know even how to express it fully,
but you know Asker's favorite scripture. Guess where it comes from,
Psalm twenty three. The Lord is my shepherd, I shall
not want.
Speaker 2 (42:40):
Amen.
Speaker 1 (42:41):
He is grateful that God has hurt his prayers, shepherding
him through his own trials. He prays that God will
answer the prayers for other Christian families in Pakistan. Amen,
and who are not yet free. I pray to the
Lord and other brick kiln workers who we're also under
the debt, they can also have this blessing so they
(43:04):
can also be released from slavery. Amen. We will pray
for the people of America. May God keep them in
His shadows so that they can continue supporting people like me,
so they can also be blessed. And that's a truth.
That's a God honest truth right there, coming from this person. Now,
(43:35):
this is from Christiannews dot net. This is in India.
Five or six pastors jailed in the central eastern India
on July twentieth because of false allegations of forcible conversion,
and that's really something they like to use accuse them
(43:57):
of something they're not doing. They were assaulted in custody
so severely they have laceration scars. Pastor Moses Logan of
the Chetasgar said, the jailer and guards beat the five
other pastors on July twenty first. We had done nothing.
(44:21):
Was any crime established against us, he told Morning Star News.
They grabbed the opportunity without any trial or evidence, beat
us mercilessly, simply because we are Christians, accusing the Christians
of forcible confusion conversions. The Hindu mob had disrupted the
(44:44):
church service of this pastor Bakish, and they interrupted it
with obscenities and allowed hymns to their own Hindu gods.
Police responded by bussing nearly half the Christian congregation to
(45:07):
the police station, charging the six pastors under provision that
allows officers to arrest to prevent offenses. After the arrest,
the pastors are moved to a jail. And they didn't
even do nothing. The Christian community is no longer safe
(45:29):
in their homes and their churches, and now they're not
safe even inside jails, those we run to for protection,
safety and justice are the ones who show partiality and
injustice beat us instead and make us regret that we
trusted him. Seeking them from seeking refuge from the police
is dangerous.
Speaker 2 (45:51):
Huh, that's horrible.
Speaker 1 (45:56):
In jail, the officers forced everyone except Pastor Logan to
remove their clothes for inspection. I was spared, I guess,
because I told them that I was unwell. After spending
the night in the barracks. The next morning, the jailer
interrogated the pastors, asking about personal details as well as occupation.
(46:20):
What's it to you, That's what I'd like to say.
And so they were beaten, you know. And when they
beat you, they hit them on their buttocks, knees, back
of thighs, back of knees with long wooden sticks. And
these are the big batons that police in India use. Yeah,
(46:48):
it makes you want to just knock them over the head,
don't it. That is just for a okay, tower.
Speaker 3 (47:00):
Okay, this is a story from CNN. CBN, I'm sorry,
a story from CBN. California is toxic. Actor Kirk Cameron
shared last year that he fled California for Tennessee It's
(47:22):
pretty clear that California has been moving in a particular
direction for a long time, he told the Washington State Examiner.
In and Out President Lindsay Snyder has announced that she
and her family are moving out of California and relocating
to Tennessee as a plan to expand the franchise in
(47:44):
the volunteer state. Snyder, an outspoken Christian and fast food
era shared her decision in a recent interview with podcaster
Alibeth Stookey on Relatable. I really loved living in northern California,
she told Stukeie. And there are a lot of great
(48:05):
things about California, but raising a family is not easy here.
Doing business is not easy here, sentence. Founding in nineteen
forty eight, In and Out Burger has become a cultural phenomenon. Snyder,
the granddaughter of Harry and Esther Snyder, has been the
president since twenty ten and is overseeing the chain's expansion
(48:29):
in Franklin, Tennessee. The company plans to open its first
restaurant in the state next year. It will be wonderful
having an office out there, growing out there, and being
able to have the family and other people's families out
here Snyder told Stukeie. She noted that the bulk of
their stores will remain in California, but they will be
(48:52):
closing a few locations and moving their headquarters.
Speaker 2 (48:55):
From Irvine to Baldwin Park.
Speaker 3 (48:59):
If you would like to read more on this story,
you can go to CBN News and look for in
and out Burger President exits California, expands Christian owned franchise
in Tennessee.
Speaker 1 (49:14):
Well, I sure don't blame her, No, I.
Speaker 3 (49:16):
Don't either Kurt Cameron or all the other people moving
out of California. And I can't believe that people are
still able to sell their homes there, that people are
actually buying and staying there.
Speaker 2 (49:29):
That floors my mind.
Speaker 1 (49:34):
Well, we've gone a little bit of time, but I
wanted to stop here and I want us to discuss
about what we've been talking about. And the one thing
that we need to do is get help to the
persecuted church. And the other thing we need to do
(49:59):
is in America, we need to put together sources of
businesses that are Christian run and see if we can
get together some kind of help on a bigger scale
to help all these nonprofits help the persecuted church. You know, Tower.
(50:27):
I think it's something that the American people miss. You know,
they read the stories on CBN and there could be
a number of them that go to TBN and other
other Christian sources. But see the ministries of TBN and
(50:54):
CBN and some of these Christian organizations can't meet every need.
Speaker 2 (51:02):
It's impossible.
Speaker 1 (51:03):
You know, in America, we need to get more funds
going to help these people. And when you look at
some of these stories, you know they're happy to have
their bills, and the bills that they have to pay
(51:25):
in these brick kilns are not very much a matter
of fact, they're minimal amounts by American standards, by what
you would make here in America, and yet these people
are oppressed as like prisoners for crying out loud.
Speaker 2 (51:50):
Yeah, it's horrible.
Speaker 1 (51:51):
For just you know, in an amount that is just
like Pentance penitent it's as nothing compared to what Americans pay.
Let's put it that way. You know, Americans spend a
lot of money on things. But you see, we also
(52:14):
have the deal in America where there's Muslims in a
lot of big cities, especially and we're talking liberal. You know,
Chicago has a lot of Muslims. New York has a
lot of Muslims, and you find big groups of Muslims,
you know, in America and they're pushing to take over
(52:38):
the country, and we cannot allow that. And America has
got to wake up because there are Christians that need help.
And if something happens to America and other solid nation
(53:01):
that provide good wages so that Christians can earn a
good living to be able to give money in bulk
to these organizations so they can help the poor.
Speaker 2 (53:19):
That's right, Amen.
Speaker 1 (53:21):
And I think if there was one thing that we
seem to miss here in America, because when I'm looking
online and going through everything, and we have all we
have all of our own social accounts, and we're on X.
We've got two accounts on X and we've got thousands
(53:43):
of followers there, you know, if you know, and I
mean we've got a lot of them. If every one
of those followers gave fifty bucks and we pulled that
money together, we could help a lot of people.
Speaker 2 (54:03):
Amen.
Speaker 1 (54:04):
And so you know, I mean, if this strikes a
bell with you, you can contact us over on our websites.
Maybe we can figure out something. But don't send any
money to us. We don't have money sent to us,
all the money that when we tell people to send it,
it goes to like Persecution dot Org, International Christian Concern,
(54:26):
Global Christian Relief, and the many others.
Speaker 3 (54:29):
That Barnabaid Sat seven all things Possible.
Speaker 1 (54:37):
And every one of those. And we've got a bigger
lists than that. We have a lot. And when I
say a lot, it's a lot of ministries that are
trying to alleviate the issues that we face in the
world today. But there's a lot more need than there
(54:58):
is money. There's a lot more need than there is cooperation.
There's a lot more need, and there's a lot more
enemies than ever before. And so if you think that
you can just live for Christ with one foot you know,
in church or one church, one foot in the Bible
(55:19):
and the other in halatious behavior like getting drunk and whatever,
you know, you're in trouble. Because we need people now
to be solid Christians. We need people now to help
the persecuted church. Not promising because I don't want you
(55:43):
to send us any money. We don't want your money.
We wanted to go to the persecuted church, the church overseas,
and that's why we do these stories to tell you
about them. Well, that's all I've got to say on
this show. It's a tower. We're coming down. Go ahead
(56:07):
and wrap your section up.
Speaker 3 (56:10):

it's always a pleasure to have you here with us.

they surely do need it. And may God richly bless
you for all you do. Pray for your brothers and

for revival in this country. Pray that Trump will stay

purposes they planned. And pray for their protection all those
