The first Sunday in November marks the Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church. On this special episode of Strike the Match, Dr. Gregory Cochran is my guest. Greg is a professor of theology at California Baptist University and author of Christians in the Crosshairs: Persecution in the Bible and around the World.

We discuss what the Bible says about persecution, the top countries were persecution occurs, and three reasons why the West should be concerned about persecution.
