ETHIOPIA: Persecution Purifies
from VOMRadio Hosted by The Voice of the Martyrs
Brother Semeone is a church leader from Ethiopia—a country with a long Christian history, but where persecution can come from different directions, often beginning with members of a new convert's own family. Learn some of the history of the church in Ethiopia—including how persecution and hardship have helped the gospel spread. "Persecution," he says, "has its own way of purifying the church." Semeone will also share how the church—within Ethiopia and around the world—steps in to help Ethiopian Christians in times of trouble, and what it means to him to be a part of the extended family of God. We'll also continue our commemoration of the five-year anniversary of VOM Radio this month by looking back at another powerful moment from the past five years as "Dr. Andrew" shares about the terror he feels when police detain or interrogate him—and how he overcomes that fear by focusing on Who God is. You may want to go back and listen online to our full conversation with Dr. Andrew. Listen to Part 1 and Part 2.
