Recently, North Korea threatened to launch missiles at the US territory of Guam. But even as North Korea postures with missile launch threats, Trans World Radio<\/a> (TWR) in Guam has already been launching something else into North Korea\u2026 radio broadcasts of the gospel. In doing so, TWR is encouraging the remnant Church in North Korea. But the job is risky. North Korea is the number one persecutor of Christians, according to Open Doors\u2019 World Watch List<\/a>. And an outside radio is considered an illegal commodity in North Korea.<\/p>\n \u201cThe stories we\u2019ve got is that people who have a radio keep it in a plastic bag and will bury it during the daytime and then dig it up at night and listen to the broadcast. A lot of times, people listen in very small groups in homes. We know that there are groups of believers in North Korea and we know that the church is alive and well and probably growing under persecution,\u201d [says TWR\u2019s Lauren Libby].<\/p>\n TWR currently hopes to increase their programming into North Korea by up to two hours so they can reach more people, whoever can listen, with the good news of Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n \u00bb Read full story<\/a> or a related article<\/a> on TWR’s website.
