Strengthening Leaders, Strengthening Churches in August

Tuesday, August 31
Preparing the Church for Persecution
Led by: Nik & Ruth Ripken
Former IMB Missionaries

Nik and Ruth Ripken have interviewed approximately 700 Believers in Persecution in 72 countries. What these followers of Jesus have taught us has literally filled books and echo the lives of Biblical heroes. If we distill all that we have learned from these giants of the faith who live daily in environments of persecution into concentrated truths we find three prophetic, non-negotiables. All believers should apply and use these truths to shape their understanding, approach and lifestyle. Believers in Persecution teach us that we must offer ourselves as an offering as we witness to the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. We partner with the Body of Christ around the globe as we go to people in darkness across our streets and across the oceans with the Good News.

Nik Ripken is the world’s leading expert on the persecuted church in Muslim contexts. He is a missions veteran of 30 years, having served primarily in North Africa and the Middle East. He is the author of The Insanity of God and the new book The Insanity of Obedience. He and his wife have done extensive research on the persecuted church and on Muslim background believers in approximately 72 countries.
