The Land and the Book

Air Time Saturday 2:00 PM-3:00 PM

Persecution Database

Christians throughout the Middle East are persecuted for their faith. But now, for the first time, a Christian organization is tracking all of it—with a database. What does that mean for our persecuted brothers and sisters? How can average people use it to raise awareness? That’s our focus this week on The Land and the Book. Plus, we’ll give you an update on all the top headlines from the Middle East. And Charlie Dyer’s devotional takes us to the Judean Wilderness…on The Land and the Book.
