A woman named Anna has heard what it was like for her parents to follow Jesus in Russia.

They were persecuted or bullied for their faith in God and that often teachers would, you know, give them F as their grade

because they weren't joining the Communist Party as children or their families.

And so often they would be bullied at school.

It was very difficult for them to study there because of this faith that they had in God.

And at the same time, they said that their faith grew very strong because they knew that

the world was not their home and that whenever they were out in school or outside, people would make fun of them.

So they hung closer to God because of that.

So why would she want to go back?

We'll hear about it today on the Revive Our Hearts podcast with Nancy DeMoss Walgamuth, author of Choosing Forgiveness for May 15, 2019.

In recent years, it seems like most of what we've heard about Russia is bad news.

But today we're going to hear some really good news about what God is doing

among some younger women who have connections with the former Soviet Union. I love seeing how the

Lord is at work in the hearts of these women, calling so many of them to freedom, fullness,

and fruitfulness in Christ. And what a joy it is to be a part of a ministry

that God is using to pass on the baton of truth to women in the next generation. Revive Our

Hearts is helping these women put down their roots into the soil of God's Word early in their

lives. And I'm so excited to think about what God may have in store

for them. Today, we're going to hear two stories of younger women who are in a unique position.

Not only are they in a position to speak to multiple generations about the truth of God's Word,

but they're also equipped to share that truth in two different languages.

Testing, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
