This Sunday is the International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church.  When was the last time you prayed for the persecuted church, your brothers and sisters in Christ.  

Returning to Crosstalk to present the latest news concerning the efforts of the persecuted church was Todd Nettleton.  Todd is the host of the Voice of the Martyrs Radio and is Vice President of Message for the Voice of the Martyrs-USA.  Todd is author of When Faith is Forbidden: 40 Days on the Frontlines with Persecuted Christians.

For Todd and everyone at Voice of the Martyrs, their hope is that every church would pray for persecuted Christians.  To help people in this regard, VOM has resources that can help.  The featured resource is a short 6 minute video that puts a face on the people all of us need to be praying for. It tells the story of the Martinez family in Colombia.  Pastor Martinez leads a church in the “red zone”, the areas of Colombia that are controlled by the guerrillas and the paramilitary groups.  Those groups don’t want churches there and they certainly don’t want them growing.  So pastors there are under constant threat and danger.  

This is just the beginning of an information packed program that features discussion on why children should be aware of Christian persecution, thoughts from Todd on his recent trip to the Middle East, persecution starts with the family, persecution intensifying on the continent of Africa, anti-conversion laws in India and much more.
