In This Episode You’ll Learn:
Get started here… From this episode: “Afghan Christians pay a very high cost for being disciples of Jesus. They pay a very high cost and I've been asking myself this... What does discipleship cost us here in America and in the Western world today? For a lot of Christians I know here in the United States or other westernized countries, counting the cost of their discipleship amounts to seeing if they can fit a church service into their schedule or get around to watching part of their church's live stream from last week. And there is NO cost."
- The complexity of this 20-year saga and the outrage it has caused.
- The persecution that Afghan Christians are immediately facing.
