The Middle East, and more specifically - what is now the state of Israel - is of course the birthplace of Jesus Christ and the Christian faith. That said, Christians do not necessarily enjoy freedom of religion in most of the countries in the region – and repeatedly are face with harassment, persecution and discrimination, by either regimes or individuals.
To discuss the persecution of Christians in the Middle East, we are joined in the studio by Mr. Chris Mitchell, CBN News Middle East Bureau Chief, Mr. Michael Kerem, Middle East and Islamic affairs analyst and Dr. Susanna Kokkonen, International Director, Hope for Persecuted Peoples. Analyst Amir Oren. Host Jonathan Hessen.
