Everyday we read headlines in the news about churches getting burnt down, Christians being taken hostage or killed in various parts of the world. There are threats from Al-Shabaab, Boko Haram, ISIS or other Islamic or Buddhist Extremists and it is no longer a safe world because you do not know whether the attack will find you in a shopping mall, a church, a school, an embassy or just somewhere minding your own business.
The question for those of us who have not been directly hit, what are we doing about the ever increasing Christian Persecution in the world? What is our response?
The other question is how are we living out our Christian faith? Are you living your faith in your heart and in your actions? Are you one who can say like Fatima that you are Christian unto death?
When you listen to a story like the one of Fatima below, does it stir something on the inside of you? Does the story move you at all? Does it move you to action? Do you go on living your life the same way you have been living?
