The Persecuted Church: Ignored by the World, Watched by the Eyes of Heaven

This Sunday, November 13, is the International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church, a global day of intercession for persecuted Christians worldwide. It’s a day to remember and pray for the hundreds of men, women, and children killed for Christ each day.

Steve Saint, Mincaye, and the Redemptive Power of the Gospel

Mincaye and Steve Saint In a post last June, I shared a video about Steve Saint, son of one of the five missionaries who were murdered in Ecuador in 1956. Steve, who is founder of ITEC (Indigenous People's Technology and Education Center) was seriously injured while testing a design for ITEC.

Steve Saint speaks from his hospital bed

Steve and Ginny Saint, Mincaye, and Randy Alcorn Some years ago Steve Saint and I became friends. He came to our church within a week of the 50^th anniversary of the death of those missionaries, and I interviewed him and Mincaye, the former warrior who was one of the murderers of the missionaries, but who later came to faith in Christ.
