Ultimate CHRISTmas gift: The Word Santa helps Save Pakistan deliver Bibles. The celebration of CHRISTmas would be lacking if it did not include The Word. After all, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” (John 1:1). “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us” (John 1:14). Save Pakistan celebrated CHRISTmas by giving 30 Urdu-language Bibles to people who had asked for their own Bible. “It was good to see that people who received Urdu Bibles were joying in Christ and thankful to Him that He make possible thr...

A village in the Rwenzori Mountains in western Uganda. (Photo by Pastor Rich Friday) Once known as the pearl of Africa because of its rich resources, beautiful and fertile landscape, incredible wildlife and many diverse peoples who have called this part of Africa their home for ages, Uganda experienced decades of intense turbulence that nearly led to its destruction in the 20th century. Part of this instability was the result of many tribes and ethnic groups suddenly being merged under one flag after gaining independence from Britain in 1962. These groups can be separated ...

But in 2013 the entire nation of Tanzania rece...

It was a harsh reminder that we should be praying for our persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ every day. “Pray without ceasing” (1 Thessalonians 5:17). ...

In the late 7th Century, the indigenous Berber peoples of Morocco (along with many other North African peoples and nations) were gradually dominated and subdued during the Arab Muslim conquests. Since that time, Morocco has essentially remained a Musl...
