In northern Iraq, radical Muslims (ISIS) spray-painted the Arabic letter ن, or “N,” on the homes and businesses of Christians. The property owners were publicly identified as Christ-followers and given a choice to convert to Islam, leave or die. The courageous believers refused to deny their faith, and more than 100,000 fled with little more than the clothes on their backs. Today you can stand with them by making the following commitment:

I will not let them suffer in silence. 

I will not let them serve alone.

Become an “N” Christian. 

Make your commitment to stand with our persecuted brothers and sisters now. Provide your contact information so we can send you a free copy of our new Christians Facing Islamic Extremists guide.

Make Your Commitment

Secret Church is an intense time of Bible study with teacher and author David Platt. It is simulcast live around the world, to over 60,000 participants —lasting 6+ hours—including a time of prayer for Christian brothers and sisters across the globe who are facing persecution and for those who still have not heard the gospel.

We all have questions when it comes to sharing the gospel with people of different faiths . . .

Isn't it intolerant to say that Jesus is the only way to be right with God? 

Don't all people really serve the same God in different ways? 

What if I'm not an expert on Islam ... should I still witness to my Muslim friend? 

Why do I need to know about other religions if I'm not a missionary? 

What do I need to know about other religions when I'm witnessing to people?

Secret Church 2016: "A Global Gospel in a World of Religions"

During the next Secret Church, David Platt will explore the claims of Christ in the gospel and consider how these claims both inform the way we understand religions in the world and impact the way we live and share the gospel with others when surrounded by believers with diverse belief systems.

​Open Doors is partnering with Radical, the ministry of David Platt, to bring Secret Church to you via simulcast. We want to invite your church, small group, friends, or family to join us and to be a part of the next Secret Church Simulcast, on Friday, April 29, 2016.

Bones of a Christian Saint Uncovered
Florence Taylor

​
...The remains are thought to be of the namesake of the monastery, Saint Julian, who was martyred in 284 AD for refusing to deny his faith. The saint, who had healed the sick, was killed by his own father, a Roman officer.
​
He was buried in the sarcophagus, which had laid uncovered for centuries until ISIS used bulldozers to raze the Mar Elian monastery, which is more than 1,500 years old...
