How Richard Wurmbrand and Persecuted Christians Inspired an Ambitious Video Bible

"You can help persecuted Christians, but they can help you more." Richard Wurmbrand, the founder of The Voice of the Martyrs, shared this truth with Steve Cleary and it changed forever his perspective about being in fellowship with our persecuted family. Cleary, founder and president of Revelation Media, was an early staff member at The Voice of the Martyrs, including traveling to churches and other events with Richard and Sabina Wurmbrand. Today, Steve is following God's call to develop iBible to share Gods Word in animated video form with people all over the world. The iBible app and content is designed to present the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. It's already impacted people all over the world. "I want to make iBible and give it to the church. So, we're asking the church to help us," Cleary says. By 2033, Steve and his team hope to have the whole Bible completed in 300 animated episodes. Listen as Steve shares memories from serving with Richard and Sabina Wurmbrand and what he learned from them about our persecuted family. "Richard taught me that [persecuted Christians] are not victims, but that they are strong in Christ. And they can strengthen us." Steve will also tell about his role helping bring Wurmbrand's story to life on film through Tortured For Christ. You can watch completed episodes of the Bible—in multiple languages—on the iBible app, and you can watch Tortured for Christ and the prequel, SABINA: Tortured For Chris, the Nazi Years,  on the VOM app. Pray for Steve and the iBible team as they work with the global church to develop partnerships to build and distribute Biblical content throughout the world.
