from VOM Radio · host The Voice of the Martyrs
“Brother Bayram” came to the United States to further his education. He started a business, and one day a Christian woman gave Bayram a New Testament.

It was a costly decision: his devout Muslim wife divorced him and won’t allow him to see their daughter. His brother had Bayram committed to a mental hospital—viewing anyone who would leave Islam as mentally unstable. It has been a difficult road, but Bayram’s faith has only grown stronger as he has seen God work in his life and in his country.
