Remembering North Korea's Christian martyrs

By Jim on Mon, 12/26/16

North Korea

Christian Solidarity Worldwide report: “Among other basic human rights denied to the people of North Korea, freedom of religion or belief is largely non-existent. Denial of this right has occurred since the 1950s, and the current leader, Kim Jong-un, continues to violate citizens’ religious freedom.”

NewGreat Books on North Korea Persecution of Christians

Mon, 12/26/16

Great article…thank you for sharing.

A very good book about the great revival of 1907 in Korea that involved Presbyterian missionaries(yes, that can happen,) is called The Korean Pentecost, by William Blair and Bruce Hunt. It can be bought here:

Another good one is :

Eyes of the Tailless Animals: Prison Memoirs of a North Korean Woman by Soon Ok Lee. She escaped from a prison camp and the country.

Here’s one place you can get it:

Happy New Year!
