Can your faith in Jesus Christ stay strong, even in captivity? Can you still believe in God if you are in prison for believing in Him?

In today's episode, Joel and Carl have a conversation with Andrew Brunson, pastor of a relatively small evangelical congregation in Turkey, and his wife, Norine. Andrew had the commitment to share the Gospel in a country with low interest, summited in a difficult time. He was kept in prison for two years and accused of activities related to terrorism and a threat to national security. In prison, he starts his journey.

Andrew and Norine share the difficulties they had been through and speak about what made his crisis in the faith. They discuss and question if God exists, how he rebuilt himself and his relation with God, and the shifting moment when former President Donald Trump began soliciting his liberation.

Lastly, they share the lessons of this experience, what they learned, the God harvest in turkey, and how his stay in prison was the start.
