    Being a Christian in Türkiye

    I don’t want to make anyone think that people here are against Turks. I am Turkish myself, and honestly, I have never seen a society as helpful as the Turkish people. We are very kind and supportive among ourselves problems usually start only when topics like religion, politics, or history come...

    Being a Christian in Türkiye

    Thank you all for your prayers. Normally, I don’t remember experiencing this many negative events in my life, but over the past year I’ve been going through a really difficult mental period. Now I understand something clearly: the life I dream of is very close. Christ first tested me through...

    Being a Christian in Türkiye

    Hello everyone, I would like to share something that happened at my school. I am a respectful and calm student in all my classes. I treat my teachers politely and I do not cause any problems. When I first started 11th grade, I did not openly share that I am Christian. I know some may see this as...

    I Can't Feel The Lord

    I understand, my friend thank you so much. I had never thought about it in such detail before. Thanks to you, I feel that I’m getting closer to the Messiah.

    I Can't Feel The Lord

    I don’t really know if I’ll go to Heaven only God knows that. Back when I was Muslim, we used to fear Allah and pray just so we could get into Heaven. Now I pray because of what Jesus did for me and how much He loves me. For the first time in my life, I prayed while crying, realizing I didn’t...

    I Can't Feel The Lord

    Of course, you’re right. The only reason I left Islam wasn’t just because of people. They only encouraged me to research religions.

    I Can't Feel The Lord

    I grew up surrounded by Muslim communities. I studied in their schools, and during summer vacations, I worked for them. Eventually, I saw their true faces. Although they appear kind and peaceful on the outside, many of them are corrupt on the inside (not all, but most Turkish religious community...

    No, I later became a Christian and since I was 16 years old in Türkiye churches do not baptize me.

    I Can't Feel The Lord

    Logically, it makes sense to me that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. It also seems impossible that the Bible could have been universally changed. My mind accepts all of this, but my soul feels troubled. I want to live fully believing in Christ with 100% faith but I just can’t seem to feel Him...

    My Testimony

    Hello, my name is Yusuf, I am 16 years old. I was born into a Muslim family, but by God’s grace I later came to faith in Christ. When I was 15, still a new believer, I was working in a very difficult job for someone my age. I was in the tile business, and because I was tall and strong from...
