Myriam's Story and Song

Myriam is an Iraqi Christian whose family had to flee their home near Mosul when ISIS took control of their town in mid 2014. They fled to Irbil, in the relatively safe area of the autonomous region of Kurdistan where they live as refugees. In the above video, she tells her story to Essam Nagy, the host of the popular SAT-7 children's program called "Why is that?" when he visited Irbil at Christmas 2014. Read the story:

While ISIS seeks to enforce the sovereignty of God through death, Christ offers the sovereignty of God through life.

I had the privilege of meeting Essam Nagy last year when he came to a Baltimore area church to tell Myriam's story, and to explain his Christian ministry via satellite to children caught up in the strife of the Middle East. Essam's show, "Why is That?" is the Christian-themed "Mr. Rogers" for children in the Middle East. The kids who call in to his show requesting prayers for their friends caught up in refugee camps are prayer warriors to put most adults to shame.

Essam Nagy, and the children of the Middle East, can use our prayers. Check out the link to the satellite broadcaster, Sat-7.
