The situation for Christians in Afghanistan was dire even before the United States began withdrawing its military from the country last month. 

According to the World Watch List, which ranks countries based on the amount of religious persecution, Afghanistan landed as #2, only behind North Korea. The Center for the Study of Global Christianity wrote that less than 3 percent of people in Afghanistan personally know a Christian. 

To help give us context about the situation in Afghanistan, Hannah Chao, editor at the SOLA Network, interviewed Scott Oh, pastor at Rooftop Church in Brea, California. Scott used to help operate an orphanage in Afghanistan from 2004-2007, and he still has contacts in the country. 

We hope this interview will give us new insights into the people of Afghanistan and encourage us to pray for the people there.
