Christian Article Leads Turkish Muslim to Jesus
Yusuf*, a young Muslim man in Turkey, believed Christianity was false. He believed it was a threat to the true religion—Islam—and from the time he was a young child, he felt a deep hatred toward it. But that was to be expected of a young boy growing up in a strict Muslim family.

Refugee Family Trained for Evangelism Through Spanish Ministry
Jad* was a believer. His wife, Leila* was not. In their Muslim-majority North African country, Jad’s faith in Jesus put his life at risk every day.

Urgent: Civil War and Starvation in Sudan
When shots rang out on the morning of April 15, 2023, Faheem*, a leader of a local ministry, ordered his family to hit the floor. Tensions remained high in Sudan after the alliance between two military generals had fallen apart two years earlier, and Faheem wasn’t taking any risks, even though most Sudanese had grown accustomed to the occasional overflow of violence into the streets. On this particular day, Faheem assumed the conflict would pass quickly, as seemed to be the case lately.
