Muslims Astounded by Christians: “We Persecute Them, But They Love Us!”
Manage episode 432259050 series 2837494
Jesus told his followers, “By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another” (John 13:35).
As a leader involved in discipleship in the Middle East, Mamdouh Lawendy sees many Muslims repenting of sin and putting their faith in Christ. Often this is happening through the witness and example of believers around them. Muslims ask questions. They are curious why Christians can serve them when they hate Christians. They want to know how Christians can still show love, even when Muslims persecute them.
Local churches have an influential role in reaching the community for Christ. Mamdouh says that godly, biblical leaders need to be raised up in order for the church to stand amidst Christian persecution.
Pastor Mamdouh, who was born in Egypt, is the founder and CEO of Together Network. Listen as he tells how he came to faith in Christ and how God called him to gospel work. He will also explain how his group works to disciple new believers. Mamdouh will encourage listeners to pursue gospel conversations with Muslims even when they can’t answer every question.
“Muslim background believers are sincerely searching,” he says. “Jesus himself will replace us in answering their questions.”
Pray for Pastor Mamdouh, his family and the ministry of Together Network training disciples in the Middle East.
