A Story of Transformation

The nation of Egypt with its storied history often conjures up images of pyramids and pharaohs. There are certainly lots of ancient icons here that witness to the history of this Arab nation in the Middle East. There is also much to show the several thousand year history of Islam in the region.

But as host Michael Woolworth discovered, God is truly at work here through the admirable lives of Christians encountered by his colleague, Anton deVreugd, who traveled recently to Egypt. Anton saw many lives transformed through Bible League programs, including Project Philip and Bible-based Literacy and you’ll hear about it on his exciting travelogue.

The Explosive Growth of the Gospel in the Philippines

From Fearful to Fearless https://www.bibleleague.org/stories/from-fearful-to-fearless/#utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=from-fearful-to-fearless Sat, 01 Mar 2025 11:06:11 +0000 https://www.bibleleague.org/?post_type=stories&p=22809

From Fearful to Fearless

In the strongly Hindu nation of India, a Christian can be thrown in jail simply for telling others about Jesus.

Despite this persecution, bold believers like Chandan are feeling the undeniable pull of God’s love to point their family, friends and neighbors to the hope of the Gospel.

Marchpodcast Fromfearful To Fearless

Join host Michael Woolworth and his colleague, Bobby (last name withheld for security reasons), to hear the incredible path of Chandan from fearful to fearless.

She grew up as a devout follower of the Jain religion and became a Christian after attending a Bible study from Bible League International. Today, she’s trained to engage others in God’s Word and serving as a church planter in her native India despite fierce opposition to the Gospel.

Bible League in the USA: A Podcast Conversation

When you think of Bible League International, you likely imagine our work in regions like Asia, Africa, Latin America or the Middle East. But we also enjoy a robust ministry right here in the United States.

Elsewhere in the world — through familiar programs like Project Philip, Bible-based Literacy and Church Planter Training — our aim is to introduce people to the hope of the Gospel, to disciple them as new followers of Jesus Christ, and to train them to share their faith in order to see the Church grow.
