Imagine what it would be like to be threatened to have your legs broken, your home destroyed or be threatened by police with violence because of your faith?
For Christians in India, following Jesus brings these kinds of violent risks.
Our local partners tell us that Christian persecution is spreading and intensifying. Because Hindu extremists often act with impunity, threats and acts of violence are becoming both blatant and public.
We recently came across some raw footage from India. Each time I watch the videos in the story below, I’m reminded of the reality that believers—my Christian family— must live in every day on their streets and in their neighborhoods.
I’m sharing these brief but hard videos for two reasons:
I hope they will encourage you to pray fervently.
I hope they will compel you to share them with family, friends, your church
Will you stand with your sisters and brothers in India by praying and sharing these videos? If you feel led to give a gift to provide persecuted believers with food, housing, discipleship, medical care, legal aid and more, you can get more info here.
Together, we can make their voices heard. #StandForTruthIndia
“But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed” (2 Cor. 4:7-9).

Jesus Christ is alive and living in the hearts and lives of billions of Christians. I am interested in what He is saying and doing in the lives of those who know and love Him and interested in being a familiar and trusted blogger about Him

The following request applies to any of the christian ministries that are currently getting visitors from my blog:
I am currently blogging: https://webmaster220.blogspot.com I would like to place a banner on the right side of my home page that promotes your ministry If I do that and it helps your ministry grow and expand do you have a suggestion as to what type of commission or contribution could be paid to my ministry. The reason I am saying that is there are a lot of ministries out there that are buying advertising space online and yours could be one of them for all I know. I have been an affiliate marketer for years on my blog but no commissions have ever been earned even though I am doing everything required to be done to earn the commissions. My blog readers are just not interested in spending any money on any of the goods or services discussed in my banner ads and text links. To reply, use the contact form below this paragraph Thanks, Rick Livermore - Webmaster220
