I'm Ruth Kramer with Mission Network News, the conflict in the Middle East especially

hits Iran's neighbor to the West, Iraq.

Samuel, with redemptive stories, explains that Iraq contains the United States military

bases and armed groups loyal to Iran.

In other words, it's a target for both sides.

Samuel says that when chaos arises, the church is called to be a stabilizing force, communicating

both the hope and peace of Christ, believers in Iraq have had to shelter in place at times

this month, ask God to preserve stability in Iraq and enable more people there to hear

the gospel.

Then David Bogosian with the Alliance for the Unreach says, many places today are unreached

because they're resisting the gospel as a form of Westernization.

As Christians adopt polycentric mission and the west to the rest model fades, Christians

worldwide need to collaborate together and approach new situations in humility.

Pray that God will use believers from everywhere to spread the gospel to everywhere.
