Forbidden Faith: Devotions and Inspiring Stories from Around the World

Around the world, millions of individuals face persecution on a daily basis because of their religious beliefs. The price they pay for following their faith can range from discrimination, harassment and imprisonment to torture and even death.

This book, produced in partnership with Christian human rights organisation Christian Solidarity Worldwide (CSW), profiles the plight of the Persecuted Church and encourages readers to find ways to support and speak up for our suffering brothers and sisters in Christ. CSW's aim is to be 'a voice for the voiceless', in line with the call in Proverbs to 'speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves' and to 'defend the rights of the poor and needy' (31:8-9).

Forbidden Faith consists of eight weeks of Bible readings, thoughts and prayers written by various contributors including Jonathan Aitken, Lyndon Bowring, David Coffey and Roger Forster, and stories of persecuted Christians around the world.
