November 21, 2023
Hour 1: History of Thanksgiving
What is the real story of Thanksgiving? To whom were the Pilgrims offering their thanks? What role did religious liberty and the spreading of the Gospel have to play in their perilous and sacrificial journey to a new world? Join us as we separate fact from fiction surrounding that first Thanksgiving.
Hour 2: God’s Hostage
After more than two decades of missionary work in Turkey, our guest was arrested in October 2016 and accused of espionage. Join us as he describes ministering to marginalized people in a Muslim land; the attention, suspicion, and risks he and his wife, Norine, felt but accepted; and his story of imprisonment, brokenness, and eventual freedom. Don’t miss this fascinating story of what it means to say, “Yes, Lord.”
