Music for Middle-East Missionaries
Fri., Jun. 24. 2005 1:02am EDT
We have incredible respect and admiration for the Christian missionaries of the world, especially those who risk their lives sharing Christ. That's why this email we just received encouraged us so much:
"I wanted to share something with you that may encourage you. I heard about this group (ApologetiX) just last week from a young woman (my sister) who is a missionary in an undisclosed Middle Eastern country. She was told about you from a young man who is also a missionary there.
"They cannot speak the name of God out loud directly and therefore cannot talk openly with each other about Him. She is unable to hear sermons but she can chose to listen to groups like you on her headphones in her home at night, alone. It's groups like you, that she, and the others there, learns of that helps her to secretly keep her faith going strong in a place that is so lacking in faith.
"Your music has reached the other side of the world and is helping young missionaries to find God in their private music. Just thought you might want to know. Thank you for serving Him."
