The following unsettling news comes from our friends at Jihad Watch, as they are reporting on a story from the Jakarta Globe.

As you may know, persecution and discrimination comes in many forms. The Irish Sun is reporting that a "fashion show" that is being held in a Christian town in Beit Sahour is angering some Muslims.

Uzbekistan (MNN) ? Mission Network News has discussed the possibility that Christian refugees fleeing to Uzbekistan from chaotic Kyrgyzstan may be running into disaster. This appears to be the case.

In my previous post you may note that I mentioned that we are still free here in America to practice our faith. For the most part, this is true - however times are changing and more stories like this are coming to surface. This is from Mission Network News and Todd Nettleton from VOM is quoted in the article.

Compass Direct has posted a story today that makes me want to cry. Honestly, as I have sat here for about 20 minutes now I just have to say that I am amazed at the faith of other believers in Jesus Christ. We really have it easy here in America, to be a Christian. We have amazing freedom in this country and I think most of us have no clue how free we are.
