God In The Ordinary: Ryan Brown

God In The Ordinary

How can we support the persecuted church around the world? Is there anything I can do to support Christians who are oppressed? Today’s edition brings you an encouraging and engaging conversation with Ryan Brown, Chief Executive Officer, Open Doors US. We discuss how to support persecuted Christians, and Ryan helps us consider how we can add a simple, powerful tool to the ordinary rhythms of our day – something that will go to all the places we can’t. He shares ways that will help us to use our faith to engage more completely with those around us and those across the globe; and talks about how comfort has become a hinderance to many, and how living without God leaves us blind to culture’s deepest needs. The Bible is a vital tool in the expansion of the Good News, and Ryan shares the fascinating history of Open Doors and how they came to be a Bible sharing ministry. Many Christians around the world find their livelihoods are threatened when they share the truth of Jesus, and Ryan encourages us to get involved in the work of Open Doors through some diverse but straightforward ways. Our conversation will remind you that the power of God is alive and well all over the planet and will equip you with ways to join the battle against darkness.
