In this episode we meet Yasmeen, a lady from rural Switzerland who has spent more than twenty years in Africa.

You’ll hear what happened to bold African evangelists who were forced to dig their own grave for preaching in a certain village, the beginnings of a movement to Christ in Darfur (in the midst of years of horrific violence and civil war), the hiding and smuggling of bibles in peanut sacks, and Yasmeen’s husband regularly being interrogated by the police.

This is a powerful story of incarnational love, of an unlikely friendship, of Muslims finding the truth about Jesus, of hope for hopeless refugees in Sudan.

If you're in the uk, we would love to see you at our annual conference day, which is happening on Saturday 8th of November in Buckinghamshire. It's a great chance to connect with us, meet workers, hear their stories, and get equipped to reach out to your Muslim neighbours and friends.

In this episode Matt & Mike do some myth-busting, challenging many of the half-truths and misunderstandings about mission in today's world.

Here are the 10 myths that they tackle:

1. There are churches all over the world. Our task is done.

2. There are too many needs around us.

3. Mission is everything we do. (Everyone is a missionary.)

4. We should just send money to local evangelists, who are more effective.

5. Mission is 'West to the Rest' (a neo-colonial endeavour).

6. Missionaries are super-spiritual - and I'm not.

7. Missionaries are super-gifted - and I'm not.

8. Missionaries receive a special call from God.

9. Missionaries have to give up their careers to go.

10. Missionaries live in mud huts.

In this episode Ahmed shares the mind-blowing story of how he came to Christ from a very strict Muslim family background. He learnt the Quran by heart as a child, his father was a Mufti (a religious scholar) in Mecca, the birthplace of Islam. His tribe in Saudi Arabia is one of the most radical in their commitment to Islam and hatred of infidels, with several of them involved in the 9/11 attacks.

But the prayers of some believers in New Zealand led to Ahmed having an amazing dream of Jesus, which changed everything.

Years of rejection, ostricism and persecution followed his decision to follow Jesus, even bringing assassination attempts to prevent him attending church and sharing the good news. And yet he has persevered, refusing to give up on his Saviour and Lord.

He now runs an online ministry into the Middle East, leading many Muslims to Christ and discipling countless others.

Enjoy this incredible story, like a modern day version of the book of Acts!
