Refugees and SRC

7/24/2021

This time last week, I was sipping on a cup of lemonade with mint while sitting awkwardly on the floor as I met with a refugee family. I learned about their successful business and their family farm back in their home country, which they lost entirely due to a civil war. Today, they are outcasts and displaced in a foreign country, and this isn’t by choice.

Salvation While Ubering

4/20/2021

It was 130am when Amos* hopped into his Uber to head home. As is typical, Amos struck up a conversation with the driver, who just so happened to be Muslim. Amos learned about his financial struggles due to the pandemic, how it’s affecting his business and family, and how frustrated he felt.

Amos shared about his similar experience but also how Christ redeemed him from his sin. Amos prayed for the driver then eventually led him to Christ! The driver responded afterwards, “I feel free and peaceful now!”.

700k Gospel Shares

3/30/2021

Aasim left Hinduism years ago when he turned to Christ. He’s been involved in a number of local ministries and churches. For the past several years, he’s been serving with Silk Road Catalyst.

A few years ago, he recorded his testimony which included his story about leaving Hinduism, what he dealt with as a result of leaving it, and then he shares the Gospel message. Today, this video has been viewed over a million times with 700,000 of those views happening over the past three months. That’s potentially 700k people across South Asia hearing the Gospel message, many for the very first time.

No Church among 300k...Yet!

3/16/2021

0 Comments

 
I live in a county with 300,000 people and 600 protestant churches, mostly evangelical. That’s 1 church for every 500 residents. New churches are planted every year, and of course, some are closing their doors. Regardless of how one spins it, my county is not short on churches.

Let’s compare my county with Abbaad’s community. I’m not talking about Abbaad’s county or city, but merely a community within a mega city. He serves in a community with about the same number of people as my county but without one known church. In fact, I’m not even aware of one other believer serving his community full-time.

Vacation leads to Salvation

3/4/2021

A Hindu family arrived from the State of Punjab to visit family. A lady in a newly formed house church heard about them and decided to make a visit. After arriving, she invited them to her home to meet Amos* and take part in her house church.

It’s now Sunday morning and Amos is teaching God’s word at this house church. He meets this Hindu family, shares the Gospel, and soon after, the wife of the visiting couple gives her life to Christ. As they progressed in their conversation, this lady asked Amos how he dealt with leaving Hinduism to follow Jesus.

The Looming Threat

2/24/2021

Isaac* recently gathered a few believers together to train them. They learned how to share the Gospel and make disciples. Afterwards, they went out and identified five new villages who need Gospel access and began engaging.

This is genuinely how simple it is. Isaac has a passion to deliver the Gospel to those who lack access to it. He is serving in a province where it is illegal to share one’s faith with Hindus. Hindus may not acknowledge this fact but the anti-conversion laws in place are so vague that one could interpret any salvation as a forced conversion.

Amos* recently walked through an inner-city village in South Asia searching for opportunities to share the Gospel. Instead, he met a Christian lady who invited him to her home for prayer on Sunday.

Sunday arrives but instead of simply having a prayer meeting, the lady invited 6 Hindu neighbors to join them. They prayed, sang, and Amos shared the Gospel.

Three-Circles and Issac

It’s just after Christmas and Isaac* invited 12 pastors in South Asia to his home to learn how three little circles can change lives. These three circles are known as “Three-Circles”. It’s a simple life-changing evangelistic tool to share the Gospel.

Each pastor, Issac included, live in villages where Gospel access is minimal. They lead churches where anti-conversion laws are breathing down their neck. In fact, Issac informed me that there are radicals near his village itching to cause problems for Christians. Yet, they are not deterred. They want their people to know Jesus.

Bible led to Baptism

Three years ago, Adam* gave a Bible to a Muslim gentleman he met in a village. This guy had no interest in it but accepted it as a gift, probably to save Adam’s face. He returned home with no intention of reading it and, for some reason, gave the Bible to his wife. She read it and was intrigued. She then began to ask her husband about it, which sparked his curiosity, so he decided to begin reading it with her.
