Pastor Joe shares the struggles many new Christians in North Africa face when they come to Christ, including being rejected by family, losing jobs, and facing persecution. He shares stories of believers who have remained faithful despite the danger, and encourages listeners to not flee from danger and potentially miss blessings and service that God has planned for them. He reminds us that Jesus came to earth knowing He would suffer and that, as a Christian, we should also know that persecution will come. He encourages listeners to pray for believers in North Africa to stay in their communities and serve, and for his family to remain faithful to the Lord and His calling on their lives.
