Send us your feedback — we're listeningHebrews 13:3 — Prayer for the Persecuted Church, the Secret Church and the Underground Church From London to Kabul, from Mogadishu to Pyongyang, from Tripoli to hidden house churches across the world — we stand with believers who cannot stand openly. Hebrews 13:3 — “Continue to remember those in prison as if you were together with them…” 2 Timothy 2:9 — “God's word is not chained.”THE FOUR ROTATED PERSECUTED NATIONS (NEW TODAY)Afghanistan — believers hunted, churches fully underground Somalia — conversion punishable, extreme secrecy North Korea — the world's most dangerous place to follow Christ Libya — believers disappear into detention without trial Global searches rise today around “underground church stories,” “Christians suffering,” and “faith under persecution.” December often intensifies crackdowns in hostile regions. Hebrews 13:3 is one of the most-read persecuted-church scriptures worldwide. Prayer  Father, in the mighty name of Jesus, we lift the persecuted church before You — the underground church, the whispering church, the secret worshippers who follow Christ in danger. We pray for Afghanistan, Somalia, North Korea and Libya. Strengthen believers who gather quietly in locked rooms, caves, basements or remote places. Protect those who hide their Bibles, whisper their hymns and share the gospel at great personal risk. Lord, cover every pastor, every family, every new convert and every imprisoned believer with Your supernatural protection. Let courage rise where fear presses in. Let hope burn where darkness tries to swallow the light. Jesus, sustain Your people. Surround them with angels, fortify their faith and let Your Word run freely where chains attempt to silence it.

The Secret Church by Theo by 826 Valencia

On this week's Hopecast, David and Marilynn Chadwick join Jenn Houston as David discusses the Peace Accord with Israel and Iran's recent assembly of 2,000 rockets and missiles aimed at Israel. They discuss Lebanon's and Syria's presence as participants in the rising tensions in the Middle East, taking a look at the recent meeting between President Trump and the President of Syria, Ahmad al-Sharaa. David talks about the rising tension over "hot spots" in and around Israel. Marilynn shares how God is on the move in the midst of world tensions and how to pray specifically for our leaders and the Secret Church.

In today's episode, Jennie sits down with longtime friend, pastor, and author David Platt to talk about a simple, powerful way to study your Bible. David shares how his life was changed by time with the underground church—and how their hunger for the Word led to what is now Secret Church, a global simulcast Bible study attended by tens of thousands each year. David also unpacks the method behind his new book, How to Read the Bible: A Simple Guide to Deeper Intimacy with God, introducing a four-part framework to help you engage Scripture in a way that's personal, transformative, and deeply rooted in truth. Whether you're new to Bible study or looking to reignite your time in the Word, this episode will give you clarity, encouragement, and a fresh passion to draw near to God.

Fewer people are getting married in our culture, and many who do get married tend to delay the pursuit of marriage until they are well into their 20s and 30s. This low view of marriage has also seeped into the church so that many Christians have lost sight of a biblical view of marriage. In this message from Colossians 3:18–19, David Platt points the church to God's good design in marriage, including the way husbands and wives are to reflect Christ's love for the church in the way they relate to one another. We hope you'll join us for Secret Church 25 on April 11.

The fact that over 3 billion people in the world are unreached—meaning they have little or no access to the gospel—highlights the scope and the urgency of the church's mission. It's a mission in which every follower of Christ has a role to play, and God has provided unprecedented opportunities for the church to spread the gospel today. Yet, as David Platt reminds us in this message from the book of Acts, prayer is crucial to the accomplishment of this mission, for it is only by the power of the Holy Spirit that the church can be faithful and effective in the task of making disciples of all nations. This message was given at the Gather 25 conference in Kuala Lumpur. We hope you'll join us for Secret Church 25 on April 11.
