Algeria

We are calling you to encourage you for this wonderful work you are doing, because through your programs we learn a lot and we understood the truth you preach about God. 

My wife and I are Muslims by tradition and not by conviction. Since I started watching you on TV, I drew a comparison and found that between Islam and Christianity there is a big gap. I realized these things, the God of Islam is preaching terror, punishment and hell, a frightening God....but the God of the Bible is love, He blesses and He gives life.My wife had this experience with Christ: she requested from Christ that He would comfort her of our lost daughter who died a couple of years ago.  Later that night in a dream Jesus appeared and comforted and encouraged my wife.

Some days later my wife went to the dentist and told the dentist about your channel, and to her surprise the dentist replied that he was converted and that himself was converted through your program, "I am a Christian" he concluded.

The thing I like about you is that you adapt Christianity to our own people.  The Kabyl language and the culture make things relevant and it does not seem strange for any one to accept Christ. I have read the Kabyl New Testament and I was surprised to see my heart opening up.

On one of my trips to France, a Kabili evangelist told me about Christ but I declined the invitation. Another opportunity was given to me by a group of Christians but I declined it too. A third time, I was invited by the Copts on one of my trips to Egypt, and I refused again.But when I saw you speak in Kabili about Jesus and who Jesus is, I couldn't resist, and now I want to accept Him in my life.  Would you be willing to help me to find a church in the neighborhood?  I have heard there is a church somewhere not too far from where I live.  Thanks for your help and your availability.

I would like to inform you that you are wonderful, you are size-wise insignificant in relation to our national channels, yet you have the major part of viewers in this nation watching your TV station, It is always a joy to hear your conversations. I want to encourage you because many are finding rest and drawing wisdom from your preaching.

I always watch your programs and I inquire of you to send me the Gospel in Arabic in order to learn and to equip myself so I can tell others who work with me about Jesus that, He is the true way.

I would like to thank you for having lead me one step after the other, from my interest to my conversion and to going to church. Now I have been to church as you suggested it to me, I was surprised and marveled at the welcome I had when I entered the church.  I have attended the service for the first time in my life and I enjoyed it. I was amazed at the loving atmosphere I discovered among those believers. The pastor invited me to different meetings in the future. You have to realize that I was too far from becoming believer. I must tell you that the Christian faith that I have just discovered is unique and blows my mind.  Thank you.

Despite the fact that Berbers are marginalized and being a Berber myself, I always loved Islam because I thought it was the only religion that led to God, and I loved God.

I was raised in a modest family and had a quiet and calm life until my older sister got married and my dad died.  .These events culminated with the loss of my younger sister in 1999. I was left with my mother and both of us were sick. It was soon after that I discovered that we were victims of acts of sorcery and black magic. It was a nightmare! How were we to get healed from this black magic?  Hatred took root in our hearts for our relatives who were responsible for our case.

The first thing we did was to move away and soon after we started to seek healing. We spent a fortune seeking healing from fortune tellers and healers.  I bought the Koran and Chanting Koranic CDs. We spent 6 years reading and listening to nothing else but the Koran; we drank water with Koranic verses inserted in it. We tried everything but no healing....

No marriage, no work yet I held onto God knowing that he knew everything about me, I just needed to obey Him.  I watched Muslim Programs on TV, especially a certain Omar Abdelkafi who taught death and all the fear one can imagine. I was already wearing a veil and I was frightened to death.

Five weeks ago, I was flipping through the channels and saw your channel, but never wanted to watch it and passed it many times. One day I ended up watching your program.  The more you talked about love, the more peace I felt, and the terror and the fright seemed to give room to love and confidence. Then one day I had a dream of Jesus coming back out of a thick cloud.  I was so happy.... Darkness and fear fled away. I was instantly released and fear was replaced by peace and happiness.

Now I gave up Islam and the Koran which twisted the truth and my life. I am so happy to be born into Christ, even if for my extended family I appear to be rebellious and foolish. The good news is that I am saved by Christ.

I have been watching your channel for some months.  The words and everything you say gets to the heart. I felt as if I couldn't keep this wonderful news for myself and decided that I would share it with a friend.  To my surprise, he was already watching and feeling the same thing too. We then decided that we would preach the gospel in our city. Not long after we started to share our faith, we were attacked and mocked and cursed. 

Later we realized that we have made a mistake going preaching while we were not prepared. We want to make this request to you to get someone to help us out. There is no turning back for us as far as our new faith is concerned.  We love Jesus and we want to get as many as possible to eternal life through the prince of peace. We called you asking for help and guidance. Thank you and waiting for your answer.

First of all, I want to thank you for the Kabili program.  They are a source of blessings to me. I am 24-years-old and I have accepted Christ about 2 years ago. I am not that familiar with the bible; all I know is what I hear from your programs, therefore I do not know much about the Christian faith. I live within 4 walls as a prisoner at home.  I can rarely go out but when I do, I have to have an escort to be able to go out and this is a real nightmare for me.  This started in 1999 when supposedly I was no longer a child.

I am not free and my liberty is taken from me. I suffer enormously when I see others live like any normal being but this did not kill my faith and freedom I have discovered in Christ. I pray and fast regularly, and my deep desire is to be baptized. Unfortunately I am alone and I don't know any other Christian who can help me. I live in a big family with my parents and 10 brothers and their wives and their children.  Only my mother and my sisters-in-law know about my Christian faith.  I have longed to find someone to share my faith with and to pray.  I am telling you these on this sheet of paper but that is not all.  There is much to say which I cannot write.

I pray the Lord to help me and bless me, that he would give me strong faith and patience and that he would change my heart and my life, and especially to give me a chance to be baptized.  I want to be filled with the spirit, to learn and grow in faith. One request I make is that you pray for me so that the Lord will bring to me a Christian husband before my parents and brothers force me against my will.

May Christ bless help and protect you, may he grant you his joy.

Blessed are those who call upon the name of Jesus Christ. Amen
