In this episode of the Homeschooling Families Podcast, host Leslie Nunnery speaks with Judd Saul from Equipping the Persecuted about the dire situation faced by persecuted Christians in Nigeria. Judd shares insights into the rise of radical Islam in Nigeria, its impact on Christian communities, and the challenges they face. He discusses the mission of Equipping the Persecuted, which involves providing practical assistance, security training, and raising awareness about the ongoing persecution. Listeners gain a deeper understanding of the struggles these persecuted Christians face and how families can take action to support them. Meet The Guest:Judd Saul is a family man, award-winning documentary filmmaker, entrepreneur, and missionary who embarked on a call to action in Nigeria in 2011. He and his wife Sherry have 5 children, all witnessing the vision unfold when Grandfather Duane Wessels invited Judd to join him on a mission trip. The trip changed Judd's life forever. He realized the stark reality, of the risk and sacrifice facing these people, and a burden was placed on his heart for the lost and persecuted Christians in Nigeria.  Since then, ministering to Nigerians has been a part of Judd's life, regularly serving in Nigeria for over ten years, and he continues to visit 3-4 times a year. It was apparent that escalating attacks outpaced the few Christian missions and organizations effectively responding to the attacks. Talking to local ministers and missionaries, Judd decided to start Equipping The Persecuted to respond and help persecuted Christians in need quickly. The local leadership affirmed that there are effective ways to help persecuted Christians in addition to victim aftercare. A proactive, prevention mission was put together with a team of “tested by fire" pastors, missionaries, and dedicated supporters to avert crises - creating the boots on the ground, locally managed Equipping The Persecuted. Topics Covered In This Episode:Discussion about the importance of understanding and supporting persecuted Christians facing persecution for their faith An Introduction of Equipping the Persecuted's mission in NigeriaWhy Judd Saul and his organization focus on Nigeria and its significance.The increase in Christian persecution in Nigeria and the devastating effects on familiesOverview of the roots of the persecution issue and Islam's role in NigeriaThe strategic plan behind radical Islam's expansion and political takeoverThe disproportionate persecution of Christians in Nigeria and the government's complicityHow listeners can become more aware, take action, and support persecuted ChristiansEquipping the Persecuted's practical efforts to aid persecuted ChristiansThe importance of prayer, donating, and contacting government representatives Additional Resources:Equipping the Persecuted WebsitePodcast Sponsor: The AWARD WINNING CSB Explorer Bible for Kids helps kids place God's Word in the middle of God's world.

And, that's what we will be talking about in today's episode— Honoring our Heritage. I'm joined today with our Lead Pastor Steve Darr. In this episode you'll discover:What is special about the celebrations such as Rosh Hashanah and Yom KippurWhy these ought to be remembered by ChristiansThe importance of the Old Testament Prophecies about Jesus ChristThe significance of the Feast of Tabernacles for the ChristianHow these feast days bring excitement to the Christian faithAll of these feasts that we discussed today were part of Jesus' heritage and as His brothers and sisters we should take notice of them to help us better understand the words of Christ and His actions.

Episode 36 looks at chapter 51, in which the abstract Tao, the origin and sustainer of all things, points to the more concrete virtue of Te, the selfless and ever-giving behavior of those in touch with the Tao as they emulate it. For Lao Tzu, we can only understand Te/virtue by first observing Tao/the order of all things. For Christians, we should arrive at Christian virtue by first observing God/Christ, rather than using Christian "values" and behaviors to arrive at proper theology.The episode is divided into two main parts:"Natural revelation" - The Tao/God as origin and sustainer of all thingsEnvironmentalism among ChristiansThe natural revelation of the Tao as a basis for understanding ultimate/primal virtueThree elements of virtue - all centered on "giving"What we produce / How we createWhat we provide / How we contributeWhat we preach / How we counsel See more at www.coreyfarr.comSupport the show (http://www.patreon.com/crttc)
