The Chinese underground House Church has suffered intense persecution in the last half century, but the intense revival fire that they have experienced during times of the most intense oppression can only be explained as a miracle from God. During the darkest hours of persecution, it is easy for the Chinese church to feel isolated, alone, and forgotten by the

It is being reported that Boko Haram’s leader Abubakar Shekau is dead. He blew himself up after refusing surrender to warriors of ISWAP (Islamic State West Africa Province), a rival terrorist group and ISIS affiliate, who were chasing him.

As of May the 1st, new rules came into effect in China about what is expected of church leaders.

The communist party robbed the Chinese people of their gods. But they gave them new idols to fill the gap. Those of hard work and materialism. Everyone needs something to live for.

While traveling in the Middle East in February, I had the rare opportunity to spend a day with one of BTJ’s original missionaries, named Cory (not their real name). In the early 2000s, BTJ helped send out a team of five BTJ missionaries to serve in Yemen. The group had studied Arabic together before their departure. They were all in
