There are moments in life that stay with you forever — moments so intense, so spiritually weighty, that even decades later they still feel close enough to touch. For me, one of those moments came in 1995 when I found myself face-to-face with one of the most feared terrorists in the world!

While Nicodemus’ night visit to Jesus followed a lot of deliberation, this dilemma seemed to spring up suddenly. Some of the leading Pharisees (some of whom also served on the Sanhedrin) claimed that none of the Pharisees or Sanhedrin members had believed in Jesus. This public condemnation of believers in Christ created a crisis for Nicodemus. He faced a dilemma much like MBBs do today!

Muslims, and especially Muslim religious leaders, can strongly identify with the dilemma faced by Nicodemus. They, too, are parts of religious systems which largely reject Jesus as being Lord and Savior. Receiving Jesus as Lord triggers apostasy status in Islam and typically a lot of persecution as well.

The story of the woman at the well is powerful precisely because it is so ordinary. There is no crowd. No spectacle. No public display. Just a conversation in the middle of an everyday moment. And yet, in that quiet exchange, Jesus reveals something essential: what it looks like to cross barriers with purpose, truth, and love.

Journey to the Truth: A Biblical Study of Honesty from Genesis to Revelation aims to help MBBs uproot dishonesty residing deep within the heart. Specifically, we address the intention to deceive, when doing so promotes self or injures others. All roads point to the answer in the Lord Jesus Christ, who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. He is the source of life. The Holy Spirit transforms believers into the image of Christ.

When Moses becomes Pharoah, there is no way back. This regime has shown itself unwilling to reform or repent. Furthermore, the mollahs will not allow a free and fair vote by the people. Elections are limited to clerical candidates, and votes are rigged. In these current protests of early 2026, the regime is slaughtering defenseless young people by the thousands. If the public executions stop, they certainly will go on behind closed doors and concrete walls.
