North Korea: "Different Challenges" Jan 08, 2016

Show notes

Balloon launches are one of the key ways that VOM is delivering Bibles into North Korea. This week Dr. Eric Foley shares how weather balloon and GPS technology are even allowing us to pinpoint where the Bibles are landing. Recently North Korean government press also confirmed the delivery of these Bibles, and threatened to turn South Korea into a "sea of fire" if the balloon launches continued. Dr. Foley tells how South Korean police tried to stop the balloon launches after the threats...and how God opened a path. We'll also talk about the best books to read to truly understand the situation for our brothers and sisters in North Korea, and hear from a reader blessed by VOM Radio. Thanks for joining us this week on Voice of the Martyrs Radio.

North Korea: Pillars of the Church Dec 31, 2015

Show notes

The North Korean government has built a counterfeit religion to control it s people, a mirror image of Christianity that features their own trinity, their own meeting halls, their own sacred writings and even their own hymns to their god – Kim Il Sung. Following a different deity, like Jesus Christ, is a treasonous act deserving of death. Many describe North Korea as "the worst place in the world to be a Christian." But Dr. Eric Foley, the leader of VOM Korea, tells us that North Korean Christians don't say that! Instead they focus on serving Jesus Christ in spite of watchful government eyes and great danger. This week on VOM Radio you'll hear how North Korean Christians pray—sometimes right out in the open!—and how you can pray for them more effectively.

Ethiopia: Bringing in a Harvest Nov 30, 2015

Show notes

In the past 30 years, evangelical Christians in Ethiopia have grown from 1% of the population to more than 20%. Allan Sherer, the Horn of Africa Director for Front Line Mission, calls that church growth "one of the great gospel stories of our generation." That growth hasn't come without challenges and persecution. And now the challenge is to keep up with the demand for trained pastors and leaders. We'll hear about Front Line's efforts to meet that need, as well as the amazing ways God is raising up leaders and church planters in Ethiopia and even into the neighboring countries.

Bible Smuggling: "God Has a Strategy" Nov 16, 2015

Show notes

Before Patrick Klein leaves on a trip to deliver Bibles into hostile and restricted nations, he asks God to show him His plan for that trip. Sometimes God closes the eyes of customs officials and ushers the Bibles through without incident. Other times God has a different plan: Patrick is stopped and has opportunities to witness to officials trying to confiscate Bibles and hinder the gospel. After meeting with Christians who have faced imprisonment and beatings for God's Word, Patrick has learned to see either outcome as a part of God's plan. This week on VOM Radio you'll hear more stories of Bible smuggling around the world, as well as how you might join a trip to personally carry Bibles into hostile and restricted nations. https://visionbeyondborders.org/get-involved/go/
