In this message, we had the privilege of hearing from Ken and Carrie Liles who were missionaries that served in Iran. They shared their experiences and encouraged us on how to live faithfully in a world filled with uncertainty. 🌍

One thing they reminded us of: freedom isn’t simply doing what we want, it’s living the way God calls us to live.

Even in places where the gospel faces opposition, it continues to move forward. The message of Jesus cannot be stopped by circumstances, politics, or war. God is always preparing a way before us, wherever He calls us to go.

They challenged us as young adults to let our hearts break for what breaks God’s heart, to pray for those who are persecuted, to pray for those suffering in war, and to remember that God deeply loves people and desires for them to be saved.

No matter what is happening in the world, God’s timing is perfect, His mission is still moving, and He is working through every hardship to bring hope and a future.

Let our prayer be:

“Lord, break my heart for what breaks Yours.” ❤️
