I hope you are joining Franklin Graham in his call to prayer for Afghanistan today. Thousands in America and around the world are joining together, asking the Lord to bring mercy to Christians and others in Afghanistan.

One for Israel is encouraging prayer as well, and they explain what is going on as the Taliban rampages across the region. Christians are being hunted down and killed, and so are other religious groups and those who helped the US during the 20-year conflict between the Afghani government and the Taliban. Incredibly sad stories are coming out of the region as persecution, including death, has become reality.

Take some time to hear stories of courage, as well as the torturous conditions our Christian brothers and sisters face.
