Season 5: Episode 7: Afghanistan: Opportunities for the Gospel Amid Challenges
During recent years, the international community has witnessed the scope of the Taliban’s brutal rule in Afghanistan since the militant group regained power over the nation in August 2021. Amid the Taliban’s draconian restrictions on the rights of women and girls – together with the use of arbitrary arrest and detention, plus enforced disappearance and torture – the militants insist that there are now no Christians residing in the country. Most house churches that existed before the Taliban’s takeover have since been closed, forcing many believers to either flee the country or go even further underground.In this edition of Closer to the Fire, host Greg Musselman is joined by Brother Adib, an Afghan Christian leader who currently resides in Canada. Adib shares how he came into a relationship with Jesus in 2006, the opposition he faced for his decision to leave Islam, and how he escaped Afghanistan with his family. Adib also explains why he is so passionate about reaching Afghans with the Gospel message here in Canada – as well as in Afghanistan and other nations around the world – through his ministry work with the Jesus Network and Afghan Church of Toronto.Length: 50 minutesTo view the interview with Adib Maxwell https://vomcanada.com/af-videos/video/af-opportunities-gospel.htm (https://vomcanada.com/af-videos/video/af-opportunities-gospel.htm)Episode NotesJesus Network: www.jesusnetwork.ca (http://www.jesusnetwork.ca/) Afghan Church of Toronto: www.afghanchurch.ca (http://www.afghanchurch.ca/)Voice of the Martyrs Canada: www.vomcanada.com (http://www.vomcanada.com/)
