Random Persecution Podcasts

The Prisoners of Hope Podcast tells the stories of Christians affected by persecution—people who are, as the prophet Zechariah once wrote, “Prisoners of Hope.” We’ll share how Christianity is anything but a coping mechanism for the faint of heart. We’ll learn about people who put their lives on the line for the sake of the Gospel. We’ll discover the Holy Spirit working in the world in ways that seem ripped straight from the Bible. We hope that your faith is solidified through these stories of redemption, suffering, and a good and faithful God who will stop at nothing to expand his kingdom across the world—and in your heart, too. Together, we’ll discover how God is transforming all Christians into Prisoners of Hope.

During the month of February we celebrate the Feast of Purim, looking towards the day of victory that all of God’s saints will have over their enemies. We often refrain to the historical lesson of Queen Esther who lived in the days of captivity during the Medes & Persian empire. She and her people, Israel, were surrounded by an alien nation and through the wicked devices of Haman, were set to be completely destroyed. In the last days, the children of God will be in even greater danger but God will ultimately help them overcome and get the final victory over sin and death! Here are some key facts you should know about the time of trouble and the last days of this earth.

In this course, we will use the anthropological approach and methodology to understand witch-hunts and persecution. We start by looking at magic, witchcraft and sorcery and explaining the persistence of related beliefs and practices. As we will see the basic idea of witch persecution is that we have an image of a witch (or sorcerer) and then we pin it on someone. We analyze this image in greater detail. Pinning this image on someone is a process of accusation; we analyze among whom, why and how accusations occur. Finally, we look at some “witch-hunts”—including the Great Witch-hunt, the Salem Trials, and McCarthyism—in greater detail.
