Carter Gates, the leader of VOM's work in Asia/Pacific, shares stories of persecuted Christians in countries such as China, Vietnam, Laos, Indonesia, Myanmar, and North Korea. He recounts the story of a pastor who was martyred in Laos, and another pastor accused of putting a curse on a policeman. Carter also gives an update on Christians in China after the "Zero Covid" policies were dropped, and the penalties they face for teaching Biblical truth to young people. The episode concludes with a call to prayer for persecuted Christian family members in prison across the Asia/Pacific region, and for VOM's Asia/Pacific team as they work to stand with those furthering the gospel in hostile and restricted nations.
