Tyler Connell with the Ekballo Project<\/a> has been touring college campuses around the U.S., sharing stories and video from his most recent trip to Middle East, where he documented a dramatic move of God among Muslims, particularly with refugees.<\/p>\n

In the last few months, he\u00a0and his team visited Harvard, MIT, Iowa State, Clemson, and the University of Georgia, among other campuses. \u201cIn every stop we saw the presence of Jesus break in to these college campuses and touch students, with bodies healed, people saved, and people giving their lives to serve in the mission field,\u201d Connell exclaims.<\/p>\n

College students are amazed to learn what God is doing in Iraq and the surrounding region. \u201cJesus is moving in these Middle East nations,\u201d he says. \u201cMany there are disillusioned and broken and just want to know the truth. Now more than ever there is a harvest among Muslims that has not been seen in history.\u201d<\/p>\n

[Ekballo\u2019s] film [Life in the Desert<\/a>] chronicles a young missionary from the Northeastern US. Two years ago he moved to the Middle East\u00a0to work with Syrian refugees.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey go house to house and visit these Muslim families and sit with them and talk with them and find out their names, their stories, and love them. As trust is built, they begin to open up about the Gospel,\u201d [explains Connell].<\/p>\n

One afternoon [the missionary] walked into a white tent with a family of eight people inside. [He introduced himself and announced] \u201cI\u2019m here to tell you about Jesus.\u201d<\/p>\n

He wasn\u2019t quite prepared for their reaction…<\/p>\n
