Kate McCord says that when she's speaking to Afghan women and says the phrase,

God loves you, it awakens a deep longing in their hearts.

And then the question in my Muslim neighbor's mind is, if God loves me, can I know that love?

Is that true? Really? Is there more?

Oh, I want to listen to this more. And I've had groups of people

in Afghanistan say, we need you to come back because your stories are full of life and we need

them. The truth of who God is speaking to the hunger in a human soul.

This is Revive Our Hearts with Nancy Lee DeMoss for Thursday, August 20th.

I'm so thankful that we have with us in the studio once again today, Kate McCord, who's written a fabulous

book, eye-opening, challenging, encouraging, compelling, I don't know enough good things to say about it.

It's called In the Land of Blue Burkas. Kate McCord is not her real name. That's a pseudonym that she uses

so as to protect the people

that she loves and cared for in her years of serving as a humanitarian aid worker in the country

of Afghanistan. Kate, thank you so much. You're a great storyteller, and I love how you love the

Lord and you love His Word and you love people and you're refreshing,

you're honest, and just thanks so much for being with us on Reviver Hearts again.

You're so encouraging, Nancy. Thanks for having me and I'm just really enjoying talking to you

about these things. Well, this whole subject of Islamic women is something I've wanted to talk about

for a long time on Revive Our Hearts.

In fact, I've had a burden over the years.

In this ministry, we're calling women to freedom, fullness, and fruitfulness in Christ.

And people have been listening to this program for a long time.
