"Marina" is a Christian from Libya coming from a Muslim background. Libya is a country known for extremist who video taped the gruesome beheading of 21 Christians that refused to deny Jesus even with their last breath. She tells many stories of the great cost Christians face when they leave Islam.
"Omar", also another Christian from Libya, is facing intense persecution for sharing his new found faith with other Libyans. There is great misunderstanding among Libyans what it is to have a true relationship with God. Like that of an adopted son, and not like that of a master/slave.
Marina came to know Jesus through a dream. She dreamt she was in a very dark, evil place. Suddenly, she felt a hand take her out of that place of fear, into light. She didn't understand the dream. She turned on the TV and immediately a pastor said that someone was taken from darkness to light. She understood this was Jesus who took her out of the darkness.

Then he got a dream. His hands and feet bound up and fire around him. It terrified him. But someone standing on the right called Umar to repent and follow Jesus. He did his Islamic prayers hoping the dream would go away. But the dreams continued, for weeks.
Then he remembered a person preaching with the Bible and the Qur'an. He remembered how interesting it was that Isa was mentioned 90+ times and Jesus' mother also 90+ times. No other names are mentioned more in the Qur'an. He remembered the person said to pray in Jesus name, and things would happen. And it did. Umar gave his life to Jesus. He met true peace and love. He discovered the truth.
But that is the beginning of suffering for Jesus, as he was attacked with acid. These scars have changed his life, but instead of hating his enemies, Umar continues to share Jesus' love through forgiveness. Watch this amazing testimony.
How devoted to God can someone be? Meet Betty. She was born in Sierra Leone, Africa. She grew up as a devout Muslim. She got married to a Sheikh and was even more devout than her husband - praying for hours in the middle of the night.
Her passion to follow the pillars of Islam drove her to engage in the Hajj pilgrimage 2 times, where she was able to touch the ka'baa.
Passionate Muslims are known for their calloused foreheads that come as a result of rubbing your forehead to the carpet when doing salat (praying). Her calloused forehead used to be so heavy it was black.
Very few people can compare their zeal for God as this lady had. And then she got 3 dreams of Jesus. The third one, which was most powerful dream for her, saw Jesus with a crown of thorns. Seeing fresh blood being spilled to save her of her sins remains vividly imprinted in her memory. The power of the Lord Jesus has changed her life completely.
The callous skin on her forehead has since fallen. She vibrantly and boldly preaches the Gospel as a witness of the love of God. Listen to this amazing story from Betty for yourself.
No matter where you are or what background you come from, if you honestly and humbly as God to show you the truth, Jesus will guide you to the truth.
Carla* was groomed to be a suicide bomber. She was going to blow herself up at a local market. Before doing so, she got a profound dream. A man in dazzling white says "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. Follow me and you will preach the gospel."
Carla asked a Christian for answers, learned about the gospel, and accepted Jesus.
Carla has then a second dream! The same man wearing dazzling white tells her to go to the regional Jihadist commander and tell him the gospel. The commander was greatly feared as he had been responsible for the death of thousands.
Despite warnings to not go, Carla was determined and went. She was somehow able to approach the commander and tell her the gospel. The commander fell down in tears. Why? Three days ago, Jesus had appeared to the commander in a dream. He told the commander he was in a path of destruction. He needed to change. And was told that a woman would come and tell him about the gospel. He believed, and then ordered all his officers to come (3 truckloads). Carla coordinated with the Jesusfilm team and shared the gospel in the local heart language. Nearly 1000 people have accepted Jesus and renounced terrorism.
