How One Man Is Smuggling Bibles into India (Amir)

In this episode, Amir talks about the intense persecution faced by Christians in India, the challenges of smuggling and distributing Bibles, and the various efforts to support and protect new converts and vulnerable children from exploitation. Amir works directly with Crossway as a part of our ongoing One Million Bibles Initiative. Over the last two years, more than 875,000 Bibles have been funded through our One Million Bibles Initiative. By God’s grace, 656,000 Bibles have been distributed to ministry partners in 27 countries throughout the Global South, with the remaining 219,000 copies in the process of being distributed. Would you prayerfully consider a gift to help distribute God’s Word to those with little or no access? Every $40 you give delivers 10 copies of the Bible to Christians in need. The overall goal of the One Million Bibles Initiative is to distribute one million Bibles in the Global South. Our objective is to finish the funding for this initiative by December 31, 2024, to support the printing and distribution of the final 125,000 Bibles. A generous donor has agreed to match gifts dollar for dollar, up to $250,000. In partnering with us, your gift will have double the impact and help us surpass our overall goal to distribute one million Bibles. Learn more or donate to the One Million Bibles Initiative.

I have been listening to The Crossway Podcast by Matt Tully for nearly 3 years. Matt, when he interviews book authors, asks questions that would help any believer, focuses on things that would help a believer grow. The podcast not only is informative but helps one to walk closer to the Lord. I would not know about these Christian authors from so many places if I were not listening to this podcast. Thank you Matt for what you do.
Rosaria Butterfield episode is so so good!

I want to really thank you for this podcast. I love the book previews and the interviews. But I want to highlight one particular episode: On Apologetics: Best of episode. I really enjoyed this. Can you do more of these? Maybe On The Incarnation, or On Loving Others and just take clips from your fine podcast and give us snippets like this episode? Thank you
