An Unlikely Evangelist
| |
| As “Kyung-ja” drifted in and out of consciousness, her head bloodied by repeated blows from a club, she heard her North Korean guard shouting words she had never heard before: “Bible,” “God,” “Jesus.” Kyung-ja understood why the female guard demanded information about her illegal trip across the border into China … and about her daughter’s defection. But she’d never heard of Christianity, and she couldn’t understand why the guard kept asking about it and then beating her when she didn’t couldn’t provide answers. Two months later, Kyung-ja was transferred to a labor camp. When she got there, she asked a fellow prisoner, “What is God? What is a Bible?” The prisoner told her there was a God, but that they couldn’t discuss it because it was too dangerous. Months later, while talking on the phone with her daughter in South Korea, Kyung-ja finally got answers to her questions. Soon afterward, she placed her faith in Christ, and today she lives and serves Him in South Korea.

| North Koreans will not ultimately be changed by domestic politics, international negotiations or missiles. They will be changed by the gospel of Jesus Christ, and The Voice of the Martyrs is committed to seeing the gospel delivered to North Koreans in every way possible. When you support VOM’s work in North Korea, you are funding gospel balloon launches that carry the gospel across the closed border with North Korea; secret distribution of Bibles; front-line workers reaching North Koreans for Christ; and covert operations that we cannot publicly discuss. This month, we invite you to help shine the light of truth into the spiritually dark land of North Korea with a gift to help VOM’s work in that country.
