Central Asia
Tune in
Persecution of Christians is rife in this region of arid deserts and soaring mountain ranges, with believers of backgrounds in other major religions being the most vulnerable. We want to enable first-generation Central Asian believers to study the Word of God safely by providing biblically sound content on various media platforms.

Sofia* in Kazakhstan
A listener of TWR programs
" ... I started to listen to your programs, and I understood what it truly means to believe. I came to know Christ through the radio. I cannot read the Bible at home because if my husband found out about my faith, he could kill me or be violent toward me. However, I've got an SD card with the Bible programs recorded on it so I can listen to them secretly. I really like them."

Umida* in Uzbekistan
A listener of TWR programs
"The fact that there are believers among us who passed through persecution [dealt by] their relatives and the government and still stood strong in faith is especially encouraging to us. ... Through these programs, we can see that God does not leave his children but instead even strengthens their spirit and gives the power to stand in faith."

Emil* in Kyrgyzstan
A Good News program listener
"We hear good things all the time at church about the Good News broadcast. The radio ministry is a great help for many to talk about Christ. In the villages particularly, people find time to listen to the broadcasts and the texts are understandable to all."

Gabriel* in Uzbekistan
A Thru the Bible program listener
"Radio programs are like a preacher who goes where nobody can go. We didn't have a pastor so radio programs helped us to grow spiritually. ... These programs help me share the Word with others and encourage them."
