Summary

SummaryI’m Fatima, born and raised in Saudi Arabia as a Muslim. When I found Jesus, I began blogging under the alias β€œIranian” 🀫 to share my new faith in secret. My brothers discovered my postsβ€”filled with a picture of the crossβ€”and their rage drove me to lock myself in my room and plead for my followers to pray πŸ™. Four hours later, my brother returned, tortured meβ€”burning my back and cutting out my tongueβ€”and killed me for Christ πŸ’”πŸ”₯. Yet even as I faced death, God’s love set my heart ablaze, reminding me that true Christianity means risking everything for Jesus.

Created by Open Doors Australia, we learn the encouraging and heartbreaking story of Fatima from Saudi Arabia.

Watch this challenging story and be ready to be challenged in your faith.

Fatima is just one example of how we can be connected to Christians across the world. As we grow in relationship with our brothers and sisters who are persecuted, we cannot help but ask ourselves the hard questions: Is there such a thing as risk-taking Christianity? And, what is my response?

STRENGTHENING CHRISTIANS WHERE FAITH COSTS THE MOST Learn more about persecuted Christians at https://www.opendoorscanada.org Contact us at opendoors@odcan.org Our Purpose is to strengthen and equip the Body of Christ living under or facing restriction and persecution because of their faith in Jesus Christ, and to encourage their involvement in world evangelism by: - Providing Bibles and literature, media, leadership training, socio-economic development and intercessory prayer; - Preparing the Body of Christ living in threatened or unstable areas to face persecution and suffering, and; - Educating and mobilizing the Body of Christ living in the free world to identify with threatened and persecuted Christians and to be actively involved in assisting them. We do so because we believe that when one member suffers, all members suffer with it (1 Corinthians 12:26), that all doors are open and that God enables His Body to go into all the world and preach the Gospel.
