About this listen
One woman's struggle against the darkness of Hong Kong's drug dens.
Until it was pulled down, the Walled City was Hong Kong's most foreboding territory. It was a lawless place, dominated by the Triads, and which the police hesitated to enter. Strangers were unwelcome. Drug smuggling and heroin addiction flourished, as did prostitution and pornography, extortion and fear.
When Jackie Pullinger set sail from England in 1966 she had no idea that God was calling her to the Walled City. Yet, as she spoke of Jesus Christ, brutal Triad gangsters were converted, prostitutes quit, and Jackie discovered a new treatment for drug addiction: baptism in the Holy Spirit.

Story4 out of 5 stars 14
In Captive in Iran, Maryam and Marziyeh recount their 259 days in Evin. It’s an amazing story of unyielding faith - when denying God would have meant freedom. Of incredible support from strangers around the world who fought for the women’s release. And of bringing God’s light into one of the world’s darkest places - giving hope to those who had lost everything, and showing love to those in despair.

Millions are satisfied to sit through hour-long, weekly religious services. Millions more have left the church, brokenhearted and cynical. But God is waking up his people - people who will risk everything and sacrifice anything to become the dynamic, powerful church seen in Scripture. We Are Church calls Christ-followers, young and old, to hold fast to their biblical roots while seeking radical change. Scripture promises an exuberant and unstoppable church. That wondrous early church of acts can be our reality today.

Best Book on Tongues & the Power of Praying in Tongues
This is one of the BEST books I’ve ever read on the Power of Praying in Tongues.
The testimonies have stirred up my passion for Tongues with a mighty, and fresh enthusiasm! 2 Timothy 1:6 “Therefore I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.”
Not to mention, if you want encouragement and to strengthen yourself in the Lord, THERE ARE SO MANY INCREDIBLE TESTIMONIES IN THIS BOOK! THEY WILL BUILD YOUR FAITH AND STOKE THE FIRE OF HOLY SPIRIT-FILLED FAITH!
1 Samuel 30:6 “Now David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and his daughters. But David strengthened himself in the LORD his God.”
Prepare for Encouragement! In the Goodness and Power of God and of His Glorious Holy Spirit’s POWER TO CHANGE! NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD! LISTEN TO THIS BOOK AND REMEMBER THAT OUR GOD CAN GO INTO THE DARKEST PLACES ON EARTH...AND EVEN THE DARKNESS IS AS LIGHT TO HIM, NOTHING IS HIDDEN FROM HIS SIGHT AND NO DARKNESS CAN OVERCOME HIS LIGHT!!! PSALM 139:12!
