Summary

SummaryI was born and raised under the shadow of ISIS in northern Iraq 😢. They spray-painted “ن” on our homes and gave us three terrible choices: convert, pay jizya, or die. My family lost everything and fled to safety, but the heartbreak followed me. I remember the crushing depression and how I even contemplated ending my life 💔. Then, at my lowest moment, my mother’s prayer-guided healing from multiple sclerosis amazed the doctors—a true miracle 🙌. Most astonishing of all was how we found the strength to forgive our persecutors, not in our own power but through God’s grace. Today, I stand free—my heart full of love even for those who harmed me, because Christ showed me how to forgive 🙏❤️.

In northern Iraq, militant Muslims (ISIS) spray-painted the Arabic letter ن, or “N,” on the homes and businesses of Christians. The property owners were publicly identified as Christ-followers and given a choice to convert to Islam, leave or die. The courageous believers refused to deny their faith, and more than 100,000 fled with little more than the clothes on their backs. Today you can stand with them by making the following commitment: “I will not let them suffer in silence. I will not let them serve alone.”
Persecuted Christians forgive their persecutors and look for opportunities to lead them to Christ. This level of forgiveness challenges the global body of Christ to be conduits of Christ’s love to those who we may view as enemies.
