Afghan Christian Finds Faith and Belonging in Europe
Faith Facts
- Esther, a young woman born in Afghanistan, found Christ after moving to the Netherlands.
- She struggled with identity living between Afghan and Dutch cultures, never feeling fully accepted in either.
- Christian faith offered her a sense of belonging, hope, and a supportive community.
Esther’s story reflects the challenges of maintaining faith and identity while bridging two cultures. As a Christian in Europe, she found hope and purpose previously missing from her life.
Despite her family’s Muslim background, they accepted her decision to follow Christ, demonstrating grace and understanding.
“With Christianity, there was a feeling in the very core of my soul that told me to find a church. The more I became whole, the more I felt like I should be seeking Him and I knew that it should be Christianity.”
Esther’s journey reminds us to support new believers, especially those facing pressure from their past and uncertainty for loved ones back home. Her courage and faith inspire us to remain steadfast for freedom and the Gospel.
Stand with those seeking Christ amid uncertainty, and pray for believers around the world.

Faith Facts
- CNN is releasing a documentary portraying ‘Christian nationalism’ as a threat and linking it to Charlie Kirk’s assassination.
- The documentary has been criticized for warning against the influence of classical Christian schools and for suggesting a shift among Christians after Kirk’s death.
- Christian leaders and commentators highlight that, in response to tragedy, many turned to faith, holding peaceful vigils and seeking spiritual revival.
CNN’s recent documentary has prompted concern by attempting to connect Christian values in America to negative events and radicalization. The program casts classical Christian education and faith-led communities as causes for worry, rather than recognizing their positive impact on family, faith, and national unity.
Several voices within the Christian conservative movement are challenging this biased narrative, pointing out that believers responded to loss and adversity with prayer, unity, and renewed dedication to Biblical truth. Instead of destruction, the faithful came together in peace and spiritual awakening, anchored by hope and trust in God.
“How is that a bad thing? What are we even talking about here?”
Families who embrace Christian values know the importance of raising children in faith, cultivating leaders grounded in truth and moral courage. Education rooted in Christian principles equips the next generation to preserve freedom and stand boldly for righteousness in the public square.
Now more than ever, we are called to champion the influence of Christian schools and the right to live out our faith in every sphere of society. Stand firm in truth and do not be swayed by media campaigns that distort the heart of the Christian community.
