Dear Friends, This is an important episode. Please take a few minutes and listen all the way through. Jesus told us that since the world hated Him, it will hate us too. In the United States, we have been isolated from much of the persecution around the world. But it doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be moved by and do something about the persecution in other countries. It also doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t be diligent to stand up for our freedoms and rights in our own country.
