Welcome to the first episode of the Arise Africa podcast!

Each year, Open Doors publishes the World Watch List, detailing countries where Christians face staggering levels of persecution. This series will shine a spotlight on Sub-Saharan African nations, the epicenter of violence against Christians. Alarmingly, 4,491 out of 4,849 Christian deaths worldwide occurred in this region—an astonishing 93% of the global total.

Join Illia, a dedicated journalist and researcher from Open Doors, as he unveils the harsh realities facing the church in Africa. It’s crucial that we take action—stop the violence and begin the healing! Don’t wait—join our campaign today and sign the Arise Africa petition
