"But regardless of which of us end up literally crucified for Christ, the question is: have we not died already? Paul—who was converted right here in Syria—proclaimed, “I am crucified with Christ.” -Farid, Syria (source 8thirty8's Facebook page). Also from 8thirty8: A Syrian refugee, living in Jordan, met Jesus and was just recently baptized! He shared that his family has completely disowned him (won't even speak to him) and now his wife has divorced him. But he has the biggest smile of joy you have EVER seen!  *Pray for the strength of this new brother, and that the Lord would use this new brother to draw his family to Him! * Video about Helen Berhane, a Christian woman who was locked in a metal shipping container in Erirtea for two and half years, for sharing the gospel of Christ. “We had a hope that they would be released,” the brother said a day after the news of their killing was released. “But the will of God was for them to be martyrs of Christ, an...

The LORD Almighty will bless them, saying, "Blessed be Egypt my people, Assyria my handiwork, and Israel my inheritance." Isaiah 19:25 (NIV) '4,000-Strong' Christian Militia Formed to Fight ISIS in Northern Iraq BY  JACK MOORE   2/4/15 AT 1:24 PM Assyrian Christians are one of the oldest ethnic groups in the Middle East whose foundations lie in Assyria, a historical region of northern Mesopotamia, but since the beginning of the 2003 Iraq War they have faced persecution from Islamic extremists. Islamic State murder of Jordanian pilot sparks fury PUBLISHED BY RUTH KRAMER ON FEBRUARY 5, 2015 No stranger to horrible content, the video of the immolation of a caged Jordanian pilot crossed a line, says the Voice of the Martyrs USA spokesman Todd Nettleton. “It’s one thing when you’re attacking the so-called ‘infidels:’ the Christians, the Yezidis. But when you are killing a Muslim in such a horrific manner and clearly taking a considerable amount of j...

Richard Nixon always fascinated me as both a successful and tragic figure. His accomplishments were well known such as bringing troops home from Vietnam, the opening of relations with China and turning Egypt from a Soviet ally to a friend of the United States. Yet, his failed 1960 campaign seemed to have dogged him and led perhaps to his “enemies’ list” paranoia and ultimately Watergate. In The Greatest Comeback, Pat Buchanan writes about how Richard Nixon, a defeated and deflated candidate that the press wouldn’t have to kick around anymore became President of the United States. The reader gets an insider’s look into the tug of war between left and right for Nixon’s soul. Buchanan states quite clearly his conviction as to where Nixon was. One of the benefits of reading this book for me was some enlightenment on a time in U.S. history that I have spent too little time studying. That is in spite of the fact that I know that the 60’s were a transformative decade that still...
