Today we talk with the man who runs Frontline Fellowship. His experience goes back to Rhodesia in his early youth, to later in Cape Town where is grew into an adult. God saved him, and he was called to missions. That conversion was 48 years ago. He has worked in 8 war zones. He's often worked beyond enemy lines. He recounts the life of Nicolae Moldoveanu - a Romanian hymn writer. Moldoveanu finally would write over 6,000 hymns. Hundreds of these were written while he was imprisoned, He was tortured for his Christian faith under the communist regime. Often called "The Bach of Romania," he wrote the hymns from memory without instruments, pen, or paper, a testament to his extraordinary faith and discipline. The Communists smashed his hands - breaking the bones in his hands with the goal of taking away his ability to play the keyboard. While in prison, he made friends with Richard Wurmbrand. We cover this today because these men of God, despite their persecution, learned to praise God while being tortured for their faith. Our guest also recounts a young lady who died for her faith at the hands of Muslims in Saudi Arabia. He also mentions that in the last 25 years, 100,000 Christians have been killed by Boko Haram. Our guest confirms that Christians are the most persecuted faith in the world. In northern Nigeria Christians are being murdered. Our guest gives us his thoughts about an Islamist-Communist being elected as Mayor of NYC. We close on a note of hope. We are to "rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God�s will for you in Christ Jesus." We hear about an evangelist who had no feet. The Arabs had cut his feet off. Despite this brother having no feet, he still worked at evangelism. We have so much to be thankful for.
