Dr. David Kasali discusses the persecution of Christians in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and how they are responding with faith and resilience.
Over the past 18 months, some of the most violent attacks against persecuted Christians anywhere in the world have taken place in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, a country where more than 100 armed groups – many motivated by Islamist ideals – vie for territory and influence. Dr David Kasali, founder and president of Congo Initiative, tells how Christians are responding and enduring, how they are choosing to be victors instead of victims. Listen as he shares how he trains Christians to overcome their fears and how he prays for Christ's Kingdom to be established in DRC, just as it is in heaven. He'll also share how Congo Initiative is welcoming Christians from around the world to come and serve in various roles. "We have to work," Dr Kasali says, "for the coming Kingdom of God."
