Summary
SummaryIโm a pastor from Burma, arrested seven times for sharing Christ. They strapped me in a chair, drip-tortured me, and threatened my life ๐ฅ. My wife too endured prison without knowing if Iโd return. Yet Godโs Word sustained usโkey verses brought peace amid chains ๐โจ. Now on the Thai border, we shepherd refugees, teaching children and reaching parents. Our hearts burn with hope: God turned our suffering into a modern-day ministry, reminding us that even when walls fall, worship rises ๐๐ฅ.

Imagine worshipping the Lord while the walls of your church building are being torn down. It can be hard to fathom what our persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ go through in restricted and hostile nations. How do Christians in free nations understand the Bibleโs promise that โall who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecutedโ (2 Tim. 3:12)?
Floyd Brobbel, CEO of VOM Canada and author of Trouble on the Way: Persecution in the Christian Life, explains that persecution is not about the amount of pain inflicted, but about the goal of silencing the church. For many in free nations, the threat of ridicule is enough to prevent Christians from evangelizing their neighbors. Yet, the church continues to grow in places where Christians are kicked out of their families, beaten, imprisoned and even killed.
Recently, Floyd was able to sit down with a pastor from Burma who started a ministry and was part of leading many Buddhists to faith Christ. He was arrested seven times and tortured in ways he didnโt want to talk about. The pastorโs wife was also arrested. Both were sustained by Godโs Word in the midst of their suffering.
Floyd shares how this couple reminded him of a modern-day Richard and Sabina Wurmbrand, the founders of The Voice of the Martyrs.
Listen for an update on Christian persecution in India, where pressure against the church has increased dramatically during the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Pray for VOM Canadaโs leadership as the ministry continues to grow. Pray for brothers and sisters in India, and pray for the persecutors.
