Presented by: Darcie Gill

Workshop description:

We will look at what is taking place in the hostile and restricted nations, the stories of the persecuted family of Believers and the need for the “free church” to learn from these powerful testimonies of faith.  The lives of your brothers and sisters who suffer for Christ will challenge you to be true salt and light in the culture God has placed you.  The question is not “if persecution is coming to America,” but the question is “will the church in America faithfully stand as persecution increases”?  We have been given marvelous teachers in more than 60 nations where it is not politically, socially or religiously correct to be followers of Jesus.  When you leave the workshop you will understand how to pray effectively for these dear saints.  My prayer is also that you will examine your life as I am constantly impressed to examine mine.

Time: Friday 9 to 11 a.m.
