Freedom of religion: it’s a right that many of us enjoy to its fullest extent. However, in some parts of the world, the ability to practice one’s faith and beliefs can come with a dangerous and demoralizing price.
In the powerful new documentary Persecuted Christians, award-winning filmmaker and accomplished foreign correspondent Martin Himel exposes and explores some of the atrocities and inhumanities that persecuted Christians are facing in Middle Eastern countries including Egypt, Iraq and Pakistan.
Moving personal stories are told of a group of families who have suffered greatly for their faith. They’ve escaped oppression in their home countries to rebuild their lives in Canada, while often leaving behind loved ones who continue to be in danger.
Martin and associates also travel to the Middle East to get a firsthand look at where some of these devastating events have taken place and to meet with political officials about this ongoing situation.
Persecuted Christians premiers tonight, March 14, at 10 pm EST on Vision TV.
Watch the video clip below for a sneak peak of Persecuted Christians. In this clip, you will meet Rami and Christine, a Christian couple from Egypt who are rebuilding their lives in Canada after suffering torture and threats in their home country.
We thank the Lord for the light that is being placed on the persecution of Christians and pray all the more that they will know the perseverance and empowerment of the Holy Spirit in the face of incredible hardships, suffering and even martyrdom.
