Christian Emergency Podcast

The history of Christianity in Korea is a dramatic account, both beautiful and tragic. The experience of Korea’s early Christian converts offer many insights for believers today around the world.
James Cha, of the Crescent Project and I43 ministries, joined Andy on this encore episode of the Christian Emergency Podcast. Listen as he shares nearly forgotten tales of incredible faith and sacrifice.  But he also explores how compromise wormed its way into the Korean Church, particularly during the Japanese occupation before World War II.  The consequences of compromise proved devastating. But even in the darkest of days, we see that redemption is possible.
In the world today, many Christians can relate to this tale of two Koreas. They feel the pressure building around them, and also the temptation to compromise and become politically correct. This episode provides timely context for believers to prayerfully process.  May this history of Korean Christianity help the Global Church today stand.

In some countries today, little emphasis is placed on boys and young men. But as Christians, we recognize that godly men play important roles in the Church. Those boys and young men are tomorrow’s shepherds.
And they will face spiritual wolves in their lives. In fact, most already do. How do we prepare them for those battles in cultures hostile to the Christian faith?
Shay Robbins, a director at Kanakuk Christian Camps, joined the Christian Emergency Podcast in this encore episode to share from his many years investing in the lives of young men. What he unpacks is relevant not only to dads and sons, but also to anyone with young people in their lives.
Listen in and learn how you can better prepare young men today for the spiritual wolves tomorrow.

Gruβ Gott!Believers today need to rediscover their Christian history, as well as lessons learned from their persecuted spiritual family. Such context provides critical help for Christians to process the pressures building day by day. And this encore episode provides help in both ways.
“Johannes” grew up under Communism as a Christian in East Germany. As a kid, he faced ostracism and limited opportunities. These pressures followed him into adulthood. He refused to compromise his conscience or “go along to get along.” Instead he stood for what he believed in. But these actions came at a price. And it was not him alone who had to paid it. It also affected his wife and his kids.
What was life like in East Germany before the Iron Curtain fell? What helped Johannes through the challenges of living faithfully under an anti-Christian, authoritarian regime? And how do you go to a church infiltrated with spies reporting on believers? Listen in and find out on today’s episode of the Christian Emergency Podcast.
