Less Visible Movement Martyrs
In the past week, I have encountered two different movements who have articulated nearly 100 martyrs in the past year to two years.
This year, I have heard from numerous movements about the martyrs they have endured, even if not perhaps at those levels.
Any rapid expansion of the Gospel will encounter resistance. We must all count the cost.
Sometimes, when the numbers of martyrs are not readily visible–as is the case with many of these “below the radar” movements–we forget that this price is being regularly paid.
Let us continue to pray for the widows and orphans of the martyrs, as well as for those who now bear scars and disabilities for the sake of their witness.
Roundup
What happened to the unreached this week?
Each Friday I send a newsletter to over 2,400 mission activists, advocates, managers, field workers, and pastors - about what happened among the unreached, and what could happen next. Each issue comes with a curated list of nearly 100 links, and note why each is important. You can get on the list for free.
