The country of Rwanda in east Africa has known tremendous suffering and loss from the Genocide of 1994, in which hundreds of thousands were killed. And even though a huge percentage of Rwandans identify as believers, many mix elements of their former pagan beliefs and practices with their new Christian faith. So, the need for the Gospel to heal and correct is desperately needed. Join host Michael Woolworth and his guest, Anton De Vreugd, as Anton recalls wonderful Christians he met on his recent trip to Rwanda. That includes 12-year-old Joyeuse, who loves to write and sing her own songs about the Lord. And 63-year-old Dalie, who lost her own dear husband and son in the Rwanda Genocide but was granted strength by God to forgive those who brought such tragedy to her life.Subscribe today and invite others to listen with you.

Creating Disciples in Colombia
The region of Latin America is home to incredible growth in the Christian community and that's especially true in the country of Colombia. No doubt, the area is effected by drug cartels, gang violence, poor economies and other factors, but God is using Bible League International programs to bring people to saving faith and to help them grow as new believers.That's true for Erica, a woman who lives with her family of four in extreme poverty in Colombia. Their home was destroyed by fire and her husband battled drug addiction, but Erica was led to the Lord by a church planter trained by Bible League, and the family is now rebuilding their lives and focused on following Christ.Join host Michael Woolworth and his guests, Ninoska and Daniel, to hear all that God is doing in Latin America.

Organizations like Pew and Barna Research will tell us that this one of the world's regions where Christianity is spreading and growing in the greatest numbers, not only among adults but also children and young people.It's happening through Christians like Salome, who founded a school near Nairobi, Kenya, to teach at-risk children, often part of single-parent households and influenced by violence and rebellious peers, and to point them to the hope of the Gospel. And through young people like Anne, who at one time doubted God's existence, but now is a maturing believer helping other teens to follow Jesus Christ.Join host Michael Woolworth and his guest, Jennifer Macharia, who serves with Bible League International in eastern Africa, to step into the stories of these wonderful Christians.
