7 What Is Christmas Like For The Persecuted Church

December 3, 2017 • 59 secs
Do you wonder what Christmas is like for Christians living in hostile or restricted nations?

When the boy in the hotel finally spotted the visiting “businessman,” he ran to him and grabbed his hand. The startled visitor tried to pull away but soon realized that the boy was making the sign of the cross on his palm silently with his finger. The man, actually a missionary who had prayed to make contact with the Church, looked down into the face of the thin boy and immediately understood the message: “The Church is alive in No...

October 15, 2017 • 1 min
It was 4AM at the river bank in northern China. It was damp, cold, and dark, yet songs of praise filled the air. Why?

One of the pastors spoke compassionately as he baptized them, each with hands lifted up to a new life in Christ. He and his fellow workers baptized eleven hundred new believers that day! For decades, the church in Chin...
