Book excerpt: Today we are witnessing one of the most severe and unrelenting attempts at Christian persecution in church history. It’s happening in our time—in our modern era—and on our watch. It’s happening across the globe—from Syria to Sudan, from Nigeria to North Korea. This isn’t time for us to dedicate one day a year to pray for our brothers and sisters in the persecuted church. This type of crisis happens once in a millennium, and it demands that we pray as we never have before, because we are one with our brothers and sisters in harm’s way. We should pray as we hope others would pray for us if we were the ones sitting defenseless in the middle of the path of persecution. We Are One is a 40-day devotional prayer guide for today’s persecuted church. It’s not enough to offer vague prayers for our brothers and sisters who face life-threatening situations in the Middle East and beyond. We need to pray with information, with purpose, and with confidence. This guide can inspire you and your family to do just that, with incredible stories of courage and strength, faith and hope within its pages. Spend the next 40 days being inspired, challenged, and encouraged. Spend the next 40 days praying for the persecuted church.

When Faith Is Forbidden takes you to meet a Chinese Christian woman who called six months in prison "a wonderful time," an Iraqi pastor and his wife just eight days after assassins' bullets ripped into his flesh, and others from our spiritual family who've suffered greatly for wearing the name of Christ. Each stop on this 40-day journey includes inspiration and encouragement through the story of a persecuted believer. You’ll also find space for reflection and a suggested prayer as you grow to understand the realities of living under persecution—and learn from the examples of the bold believers you'll meet. For more than 20 years, Todd Nettleton (host of The Voice of the Martyrs Radio) has traveled the world to interview hundreds of Christians who’ve been persecuted for the name of Christ. Now he opens his memory bank—and even his personal journals—to take you along to meet bold believers who will inspire you to a deeper walk with Christ.

Download or read book Arise, Lord! written by Betsey Kodat and published by . This book was released on 2015-11-12 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A one-of-a-kind resource, Arise, Lord! makes praying for the suffering church easier by identifying needs and then offering Scripture-based prayers to cover them. Praying Scripture is powerful because God's character is poured into His Word; praying from His Word brings all of His nature to bear on problems. Using this book as a guide, you will pray in a balanced, intentional way both for the larger picture of persecution (strategic prayer) and for immediate needs (specific prayer). You will learn to pray for persecution as a mode of mission and for sufferers to know their part in a cosmic battle as victors instead of victims. As God leads, you can choose to pray for such things as the strengthening of the church, the gift of battle, revival, endurance, forgiveness, justice, rescue, martyrdom, trauma, crises and their aftermath, ongoing oppression, people of goodwill, persecutors, and national leaders. A template for use in group prayer is also included. Thank you, thank you for your prayers!

Book Synopsis Student Underground by : Youth Specialties Staff

Book excerpt: What if your youth group were being hunted by something far more insidious than the other side in Capture the Flag? No, your students aren't being stalked. But millions of Christians around the world suffer political repression, discrimination, imprisonment, harassment, family division, rape, and torture because of their faith. Children of believers are sold into slavery for the cost of a CD. Every 3 1⁄2 minutes a Christian dies for the faith. In fact, during your hour-long youth group meeting, 17 Christians will be martyred somewhere in the world. Student Underground gently but inexorably forces open students' eyes to the anguishing, world-wide persecution of Christians-and how teenagers can start praying for, communicating with, and reaching out toward victims. Use these 4 sessions (along with the companion 60-minute, award-winning film Behind the Sun) as a high-impact retreat, a lock-in event, or a month of weekly meetings. Student Underground shows why to care. And how to help. Here's a clear, thorough, and convenient curriculum for leaders, including a plethora of quotable facts about how, why, and where Christians are suffering. Not to mention concrete and realistic plans for student action. Plus where to find a complete underground church service on www.YouthSpecialties.com-a simulation of what going to church is like for Christians in restricted countries.

Download or read book Radical written by David Platt and published by Multnomah. This book was released on 2010-05-04 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.
Book Synopsis Think It Not Strange by : John Piper
Download or read book Think It Not Strange written by John Piper and published by Desiring God. This book was released on 2016-01-01 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For 350 years, the church on American soil has enjoyed relatively little affliction for her fidelity to the Scriptures. This nation, though, is an anomaly in church history. And those days seem to be passing, more quickly than many of us expected. But panic would not be a Christian response. For two thousand years, this has been what it has meant to identify with Christ in the world-the normal experience of those who follow a man who was crucified. Suffering for the gospel was not just tolerated in the early church; it was expected. For now, we may be prone to think it strange. But soon enough, the expectations of American Christians will adjust to what is normal in other times and places. We will realize that when we proclaim a gospel like ours, and make the sort of claims we do, the world won't receive it well. For Christians, it really is strange *not* to be persecuted. In these short chapters, a diverse team of contributors, representing six continents, joins together to help American Christians get ready for the insults, trials, opposition, and even persecution that may lie ahead.
