An animist finds hope in Jesus

November 22, 2019

“I worshiped the suns, the moons, the stars, and all kinds of animals.”

That’s what one Thru the Bible listener in India recently wrote to us. He continued:

“I was born an animist, a religion local to my place. I did not know anything about the church or the God they worshiped. But I hated them. Christians aren’t treated well here, and I thought it was for good reason. But I was in no place to judge. I was an alcoholic, a complete madman walking around the streets without any purpose. I had no concept of joy or peace in my life.

“One day I walked into my friend listening to your radio program. I heard a good message in my own language. It broke me down, in a good way. I met with Jesus and I have never looked back. I am now an active member of my church with a purpose in life. Thank you, Jesus, for taking a sinner like me and giving me hope.”

Amen! Let’s thank God for giving us His hope for a glorious future. Ask Him to bless the broadcasting of His Word in India and around the world so that more people may experience His saving grace.

Our journey of praise and celebration continues next week. Join us here.
