Extreme Inspiration from Persecuted Christians | ||
| The crucifixion of 26 Christians on November 23, 1596, marked the beginning of a period of intense persecution for Christians in Japan. One of the convicts found guilty of following Christ was named Ibaragi Kun. Seeing how young Kun was, an official took him aside and urged him to recant his faith to save his life. What Kun said next shocked the officer. You can listen to the full story today on the Extreme Devotion podcast. In an age of extremes, you can find faith, strength, encouragement and hope through stories of believers who have boldly witnessed for Christ in the face of persecution. Subscribe now to the Extreme Devotion podcast and be inspired daily by their stories.
