Sweet Persecution Book

Challenging, Inspiring Devotional Focuses on the Persecuted Church Through the work of human rights groups, international ministries, and countless churches, you have probably sensed the growing awareness of the global suffering being forced on Christians throughout the world. While many believers in the West are rededicating themselves to prayer for persecuted Christians and churches around the world, you may be at a loss for how to pray and what to pray about. Sweet Persecution is a 30-day devotional with reflections on the suffering church that will summon you to remember the difficult daily reality of being a Christian in much of the world and instruct you on the many prayer needs as well. An ideal book for bible studies, prayer groups, congregations and your own devotions, Sweet Persecution is a powerful way to prepare for the International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church held on the first Sundy in November each year. The thirty hard-hitting vignettes have been collected from the ministry of Open Doors with Brother Andrew and provide a touch-point for your prayers, reminding you of the urgent needs of churches in countries hostile to the Gospel. Each of the devotions includes a selected biblical passage and concludes with observations to help stimulate your personal meditation or group discussion.Read More
