Pastor Nouh Yattara was born into a nomadic Muslim family. He became a believer through the work of missionaries in his home country of Mali—and through his desire to own a ball-point pen. After living in fear of superstitions, demons and death, Nouh found new life, and an end to fear, in Christ. "I knew if I accepted Jesus that he has the power against all of that," Pastor Nouh says. It wasn't an easy path. Nouh experienced Christian persecution from family members, teachers, kids at school, and his community. In spite of the pressure against him, Nouh stood firm in God's grace and moved forward in faith. Today, Nouh is the pastor of a church and leader in Mali's evangelical association. He uses his own story—and the stories of other persecuted Christians—to prepare new believers to endure in their faith despite pressure and persecution. Listen to hear what Christians in Mali are facing and learn how you can pray for them. You'll also hear Pastor Nouh's encouragement to be in fellowship with other believers, encouraging each other on in faith. He'll also give advice on how you can share the gospel with Muslims in your community. Never miss an episode of VOM Radio! Subscribe to the podcast.
