Jailed American pastor denied medical care after beatings

We need to pray for this brother and his hurting family. Hard to imagine. Reading what is going on in this situation and others around the world makes all the time and energy spent by some lately vehemently arguing over silly, peripheral issues seem... well, silly.

I told Saeed's wife, Naghmeh, that they will be in my prayers to the very end.  This husband and wife challenge me to be strong for God's glory on so many fronts.  I hope to meet Naghmeh in person this Saturday.

Thanks for the perspective Andy.

Todd, if you are able to meet her this weekend, please assure her of our prayers. Grace and peace to you, my friend.
