Faith Facts
- Christian Daily International increased its multilingual, global reporting in 2025.
- New editions in French, Spanish, and English now serve Christians worldwide.
- CDI received top recognition for trustworthy and principled journalism.
Christian Daily International reached significant milestones in 2025, broadening its coverage and deepening its commitment to uplifting Christian voices worldwide. Through careful stewardship and biblical values, it has forged new paths in multilingual reporting and faithful storytelling.
CDI introduced its French-language edition, Le Quotidien Chrétien, alongside its English and Spanish versions, answering the biblical call to share truth across nations and cultures. By investing in its editorial team and expanding local reporting, especially across Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East, CDI ensures Christians can be equipped with relevant, in-depth news rooted in faith.
Their coverage from India highlighted the work of the All India Congress on Church in Mission, providing valuable insight into the lives and challenges of believers there. Stories like these inspire believers to remember that the Body of Christ is united in both triumphs and trials.
CDI’s integrity in reporting led to increased citation by media outlets worldwide and affirmation from organizations like the Evangelical Press Association. Reporting on issues such as the persecution of Christians—including ongoing tragedies in Nigeria—amplifies the needs of the faithful, calling the Church to prayer and action.
Efforts in regions like Pakistan reflect dedication to both truth and hope in the face of adversity. CDI has also grown in reach and social influence, prioritizing leadership and biblical reflection, especially as the Global South shapes the future of Christianity.
In partnership with Christian organizations, such as COICOM in Latin America, CDI fostered unity and shared mission among believers. Its unwavering stance has been to strengthen the Church through accurate, global reporting at no cost to readers.
“We are delighted to have reached the second anniversary of CDI,” said Gordon Showell-Rogers, CDI’s international director.
“We’re encouraged by the breadth of our principled, accurate and factual reporting, alongside a wide range of opinion pieces and book reviews. Our aim has always been to help Christians globally to think and to read.”
CDI continues to move forward with gratitude, pledging faithful growth through podcasts, new languages, and deeper connections with God’s people everywhere.
“We’re grateful for the mercy and goodness of God in bringing us this far, so rapidly,” he said. “As we plan further growth in 2026, we thank our readers and supporters for walking with us on this journey.”
Now more than ever, believers are called to support media that upholds Christian truth and champions the cause of freedom and faith worldwide.

- Archbishop of York Stephen Cottrell slams BBC’s “appalling lack of religious literacy” at Religion Media Centre briefing.
- Former BBC Head of Religion Michael Wakelin agrees remedy lies in embedding religious understanding across all BBC output, not more faith programs.
- Religion remains vital for millions’ belonging, values, purpose, and identity in Britain, demanding media accountability.
The Archbishop of York courageously highlighted the BBC’s failure to grasp faith’s role in society, echoing Biblical calls to proclaim truth boldly. As a former BBC religion leader, Wakelin affirms strong specialist programs persist but broader institutional ignorance undermines them.
From news to dramas, BBC must reflect religion’s global influence and moral goods, honoring Christian heritage that shaped Britain’s freedoms. This literacy fosters workplaces accommodating believers and combats misinformation’s spiritual void.
“religion is still a huge influence in the world”
“The BBC doesn’t need a larger religious broadcasting department. It needs greater religious literacy across the corporation”
“religion is a vital part of how millions and millions of people in Britain today get their belonging, their values, their purpose, their identity.”
Stand firm for faith in media—pray for BBC renewal and support outlets upholding Biblical truth.
Faith Facts
- British court denies Ukraine’s extradition of UOC supporter Artem Dmytruk, accused of torture by SBU.
- Dmytruk, Ukrainian MP and UOC subdeacon, opposed 2024 law banning UOC over alleged ROC ties.
- UOC declared independence from ROC in 2022, rejecting Russia’s military actions amid government crackdown.
A British court upheld religious liberty by rejecting Ukraine’s request to extradite Artem Dmytruk, a defender of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church facing trumped-up charges.
Dmytruk, the sole parliamentary voice against banning the UOC, lost his security and fled after SBU threats, echoing biblical calls to protect the faithful from oppression.
Despite forming a defense unit against Russia, President Zelensky’s regime pursues him, highlighting assaults on Christian autonomy.
SBU faces accusations of assassinating dissidents, mirroring FSB tactics while denying involvement.
Robert Amsterdam, representing Dmytruk and UOC, stated: “This ruling is a decisive win that recognises the lengths to which the Ukrainian government will go to silence political opposition, particularly as it relates to its violations of religious freedom.”
Amsterdam added: “Mr Dmytruk has not only condemned the Russian invasion, but actively took up arms in March 2022 when he formed a territorial defence unit in defence of his city against Russia. This has not stopped the administration of President Zelensky from seeking to forcibly return Mr Dmytruk over what are clearly trumped-up charges.”
Defend faith and freedom: Pray for persecuted believers and support champions of religious liberty worldwide.

- The BBC’s Royal Charter expires in 2027, prompting a consultation on enhancing religious content across dramas and discussions.
- Religion supplies vital purpose, identity, and values for millions of Britons, demanding robust public broadcasting.
- Faith-based media acts as a bulwark against polarization, prejudice, and societal chaos, promoting cohesion.
The Archbishop of York, Stephen Cottrell, acting leader of the Church of England, condemns the BBC’s appalling lack of religious literacy.
He calls for faith to permeate the broadcaster’s entire output, not just token programs like Songs of Praise.
This call comes amid a government review of its future.
“My concern is much more about the place of religion across the whole output of the BBC, rather than simply seeing it as religious broadcasting in that rather more narrow definition. So I note with sadness and some distress the sometimes appalling lack of religious literacy in so much of the BBC.”
“I know it’s a hard thing to fight for – religious broadcasting and public service broadcasting – but I believe it is a precious bulwark against polarisation, intolerance, prejudice, chaos. The fact is that religion is a vital part of how millions and millions of people in Britain today get their belonging, their values, their purpose, their identity.”
“Religious broadcasting increasingly becomes the poor and underfunded relative in a BBC which I believe needs to be reminded of its core business.”
As patriots grounded in biblical truth, urge leaders to restore faith-honoring media, safeguarding our Christian heritage and freedoms.
