About this episode
Salam shares stories of steadfastness from his ministry to former Muslims in a closed country in the Middle East.
He's lost count of how many converts call him "father." In this first episode of our Steadfast series on the Prisoners of Hope podcast, Salam, who serves in a closed country in the Middle East, opens up about the weight and the joy of ministering to former Muslims who have lost everything to follow Christ. From a tailor whose father-in-law tried to kill him, to a 10-year-old girl who wanted to join online church after her father was martyred, Salam shares stories that demonstrate what steadfastness looks like in some of the most dangerous places in the world to follow Jesus.
