Christians in Nepal persecuted by religious and political decree

Christians in Nepal persecuted by religious and political decree Using a new anti-conversion law that contravenes the secular constitution, politicians and police are harassing Christians Nepal has one of the world s fastest-growing Christian communities. (Photo: United Mission to Nepal) Christians in Nepal, the Himalayan Hindu-majority nation where believers of Christ have a long history of persecution, are facing fresh attempts to defame them and their faith.

The World Is Indeed Improving: A Response to Philipsen and Trebeck

I wish to thank Dr. Katherine Trebeck and Dr. Dirk Philipsen for their response to our lead essay. It is a pleasure to discuss important ideas with scholars who are searching for the truth and human betterment.
