Bibles Bring Freedom to New Believers

[75] prayers in [11] nations have been posted for Christians in Cameroon.

Northern Cameroon is a dangerous place for Christians, but that hasn’t stopped gospel workers from working to advance God’s kingdom in the region. The Islamist group Boko Haram regularly attacks Christians, and followers of ethnic animistic religions also persecute family members who become followers of Christ. One pastor is helping a widow whose husband was murdered by his own Muslim father after he became a Christian. The pastor said Bibles, especially audio Bibles, are needed for that area to help bring freedom to those enslaved to false ideologies. He said when he has audio Bibles available in local languages, he likes to give them to small groups of people so they can study God’s Word together.
