@tanjaostman Great story! I hope he writes a autobiography!
Timothy* grew up as an orphan in North Korea at the time of the 1990s famine. As a teenager, he decided to cross the Tumen River into China in a bid for survival. This is how coming across a safe house, run by Open Doors partners in China, set him on the path to finding Jesus…

Thank all of you for your prayers for our family. losing Debbie left a big hole in our hearts - that only God can fill. praying God brings His comfort to all of us. too many families are losing loved ones due to hospitals denying medicines that could save their lives. our church has lost 5 people to covid in 2
weeks - all were put on ventilators.
these families and our church need prayer
It’s amazing to think that Jesus is alive. That even his words are living. That his words are life. They resonate truth and Justice and the way to live forever. I could never find these words and the life they give me if it wasn’t for Jesus being alive. If it wasn’t for Holy Spirit being sent to me from Jesus himself because he lives I would not live.
Because he lives… I can face tomorrow.
Because he lives all fear is gone.
Because I know he holds the future and life is worth living just because he lives.
So, I live in him forever bound in love and unity with Holy Spirit and embraced as a son of the Father for eternity.
BREAKING NEWS: QUEBEC DROPS PLANS TO TAX THE UNVAXXED!
@sinbach, I am so blessed by the perspectives you share, and this article along with the mini series you've been doing on Mao's Little Red Book, are so wonderfully insightful and right on!
My parents led by example, helping my brothers and I cherish and earnestly pray for our persecuted brothers and sisters in the former Soviet Union in the 80's, through the ministry of Bro. Andrew and Open Doors. Now I glean so much from BTJ for our 4 boys to understand what God is doing in their generation!
As a musician, I was delighted in about 2006, to be introduced to the Canaan Hymns project, recorded a number of years ago by the Beijing Philharmonic (I believe), but was even more enthralled with the story of the young Chinese woman who, as an "untrained" musician who loved Jesus, had written these original songs of praise to the Lord (to the awe of the Philharmonic performers), and had taught them all over China, often being captured and imprisoned. Have you perchance met her?
This week, the Afghani Islamic leadership sent out elite troops known as Haqqani on a 'search and destroy' mission to kill any Christian leaders they could find.
Believers remain in hiding, and desperately need our prayers.
@Jo_PrayerN_actionCenter @Cherishingsparrows2020 @MaryMamuzich amen. That is one thing I pray especially for children, that God would visit then in their dreams and to give them good dreams of Him
@Jo_PrayerN_actionCenter @Cherishingsparrows2020 @Kruselady
Amen!! It's amazing when you read things as this in the Bible but seeing it in your own life is thrilling!!
The Lord will guide and protect you and the team. His desire for his word to go out and your willingness to be a hard working faithful servant is a team that can't fail.
God will hide you safely in his arms.
I'm always praying!
I'm so many miles away but my heart is with you all
@Cherishingsparrows2020 @MaryMamuzich @Kruselady Thank you for being part of this journey.
The testimony of somebody getting a prophetic dream 1 year prior to the actual event had blown me away.
Fearfully continuing the journey knowing the steps we are taking are ordered by the Lord! Don't want to miss the guidance from above.
I teach the Bible at a Christian high school. Today is the anniversary of the holocaust liberation day. So, I showed my students the video on YouTube.
My students asked
Teacher why are we watching this holocaust memorial video? It’s so depressing.
Because I worship a Jewish man who just so happens to be the King of the Jews.
Because I worship the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Because I worship the Holy Spirit who the Jew also acknowledges as Ruach HaKodesh.
Because I want to remember that God still loves His chosen children and has a plan to build them up again.
Let’s love others the way we love ourselves. And love ourselves rightly with integrity and honor for our Creator.
