WORKSHOP TITLE:

Loving your neighbour no matter the cost: lessons from the persecuted church.

WHEN:

Tuesday 17th October, Session 1: 12:00pm – 1:00pm

SPEAKER / PRESENTER:

Relationship Manager Open Doors Australia

DESCRIPTION:

It’s no secret that Australian society is becoming increasingly hostile to the Christian faith. Now is the time for the church in Australia to follow the examples of our persecuted family around the globe. The refining fire of persecution leads to Jesus-dependent disciples who continue to multiply, plant churches, and lovingly engage their neighbours. As the Aussie church learns the stories and prays for our persecuted family, we will see how God is at work to grow his church, and also be inspired by the courageous faith of our brothers and sisters as they shine the light of Christ in the darkest of places.
