Brother Edward a pastor of a church, in Damascus, Syria. His congregants walk down sniper alleys just to worship together. Recently, a few weeks before a conference in Britain, a bomb exploded not far from his church – killing 157 people.
The moderator of the conference asked Brother Edward why he doesn’t leave Syria.
He answered: “When one country pulls its ambassadors out of another country, you know it’s bad. God is not calling His ambassadors out of Syria.”
