Summary

SummaryI was born into a devout Muslim family in Southeast Asia, and after coming to faith in Jesus, I endured brutal persecutionβ€”beatings, an ultimatum to renounce Christ or die, and even a planned midnight execution. In my darkest hour, my wife Eti and I prayed with all our hearts for a miracle. By God’s grace, my father intervened to halt my siblings’ violence, and friends enabled me to flee on foot for two days until I reached safety. Today, Eti and I run a discipleship program through Open Doors Partners, empowering fellow believers to stand firm when persecution strikes. Our suffering has become our joy, and we give all glory to Jesus for His saving power! ✨

In south east Asia, Abraham* came to follow Jesus, encouraged by Eti*, the Christian woman he would later marry. But Abraham’s family started to make plans to kill him, until he was saved by a miracle.
