Release International's Voice Podcast Release International

"We still have windows of opportunity [and] it is our obligation before the Lord to pray for them and support them"
In many parts of our world today Christians continue to pay a high price for following Jesus Christ. In this edition of Release International’s Voice podcast we speak to Pavel, our partner for countries in Central Asia.

Listen in as we talk about the current situation in Ukraine and how Christians are faring under Russian occupation. And, we talk about Pavel’s ongoing work today supporting persecuted Christians in Central Asia.

Eritrea is a country where it is extremely difficult to be an Evangelical Christian; a country where evangelising – and even praying in meetings – can be dangerous activities.
In this edition of Release International’s Voice podcast we speak to our Eritrean partner, Dr Berhane Asmelash, who explains the background to the situation in that country and what it is like being a Christian there.

Dr Berhane reminds us of the story of Luul and his family, who now live in the UK. If you would like to support Christians around the world who are forced to flee for their faith, please go to our website where you can read more about our current appeal: https://releaseinternational.org/campaign/luul/ 

Persecution has always been one of the ways the powers of darkness seek to stop the spread of the gospel. That’s why it’s important that we pray. But to pray with understanding we need to know who to pray for and what to pray for. We need to be informed.
In this edition of Release International’s Voice podcast I speak to my colleague Tom Hardie. Tom edits our quarterly Voice magazine and recently compiled our annual Persecution Trends report.

India is the world's largest democracy. A country whose constitution grants its citizens the freedom not only to profess and practice, but even to propagate, religion. And yet it is a country where the persecution of Christians continues.

In this edition of Release International's Voice podcast we hear about recent violent attacks on Christian communities, particularly in the north east of India.

In this month’s edition of Release International’s Voice podcast we continue our conversation with Maciek, from our sister ministry in Poland, about the situation for Evangelical Christians in Ukraine. 

Listen in to hear about the work that is being done there – and also of the growing zeal among Christians in Ukraine to share the gospel.

The war in Ukraine has been prominent in our news headlines over the last year, but how has this conflict impacted Christians there? 

In the first of a two part conversation, we speak to Maciek from our sister ministry Voice of the Martyrs Poland. VoM Poland has been working to support Evangelical Christians living in the occupied areas of Ukraine where life has become extremely challenging in recent times.
