Chaminda is a tea seller in Buddhist-majority Sri Lanka. He was short tempered and quarrelsome while serving in the navy during the country's civil war in which thousands were killed. Even though he credits God for saving his life three times as an unbeliever, he felt empty after following several religious traditions. Today, as a Christian, he invites people to learn about Jesus and often transports Bibles by tuk-tuk, a motorcycle taxi.
Hear how Chaminda befriended a Buddhist monk who leads a major college. And when God restored a man's health and brought him and his son to saving faith after Chaminda prayed, referring to them as "strong as trees in Buddhism," but now they're followers of Christ. It's all part of this man's desire to see Sri Lankans embrace the Gospel as their only hope.

When you think of Bible League International, you likely imagine our work in regions like Asia, Africa, Latin America or the Middle East. But we also enjoy a robust ministry right here in the United States. Elsewhere in the world -- through familiar programs like Project Philip, Bible-based Literacy and Church Planter Training -- our aim is to introduce people to the hope of the Gospel, to disciple them as new followers of Jesus Christ, and to train them to share their faith in order to see the Church grow. It's the same here in the US and you'll hear of special opportunities to reach those that God has brought to the states from Bible League colleagues, Harold Trujillo and Felix Mathew.

Persevering Amidst Persecution in India 20:06

منذ عام واحد20:06

20:06

Sharing your Christian faith with others in India can get you thrown in jail. In the world's most populous country, the party in power has stated that there's no room for Christianity in its Hindu nation and has passed anti-conversion laws to discourage evangelism. In spite of this opposition, believers in India are living out who they are in Jesus even when it means giving up rights, privileges and a comfortable life. Pastor Mahesh became a believer and was shunned by his family, forced into homelessness, and attacked, before his church was shut down by authorities. Bible League programs, such as Project Philip and Church Planter Training, are providing the tools for Christians to endure and share the hope of the Gospel. Join host Michael Woolworth and his guest, Bobby (last name withheld for security purposes), for a firsthand look at Christian persecution in India. Subscribe and invite others to listen.

God Replaced Bosco's Rage with Peace and Love 21:52

21:52

Bosco suffered a terrible tragedy as a child when his parents were murdered in a conflict within the country of Burundi, Africa. Throughout his teenage years, he lived with unforgiveness and rage, even wanting to take revenge on his family's killers, but God transformed Bosco's life and brought him peace after he heard the Gospel preached in a church he visited. Today, Bosco leads Igniting Communities for Jesus (ICJ), a partner of Bible League International, that creates brighter tomorrows for the people of Burundi, often touted as the world's poorest country, and disciples them as new believers. ICJ has found favor among Burundi's government schools and the Muslim community. As a result, people are hungry for the Gospel and asking for more Bibles and study materials to share Christ with others. Invite a friend to listen and join host Michael Woolworth and guests, Bosco and Jennifer (last names withheld for security purposes), for this inspiring edition of The Word in Action Podcast from Bible League International.

A Woman's Journey to Recovery and New Life 14:48

Even the most broken lives can be restored and made whole when women in recovery are engaged in God's Word. The Lord is transforming lives around the world and that's especially true in Hong Kong through a Bible League International program that ministers to women battling drug addiction. Candy lost her father when she was young, and her mother was mostly absent from the home. This led to a life of rebellion, drug and alcohol abuse, and time spent incarcerated as an adult. Through love and care given by Anita, Candy would come to see her sentence not as God's judgment, but as His mercy to bring about total life transformation. Join host Michael Woolworth and his guest, Romi Barcena, as they share Candy's amazing story on The Word in Action Podcast from Bible League International.
