And then a few moments later, I see a man walking with this crowd and he's carrying a huge cross. And it confused me because I was like, what? What is it that we are witnessing right now? And so then I pull out my phone and I'm kind of trying to search what's happening in Canada.

And basically what was happening, and I believe it's still happening during this time, is that Canada was, and maybe still is, is experiencing backlash and a conflict to where people are not able to exercise free religious speech anymore. And so because of that, proclaiming the gospel and evangelizing is something that has the opportunity to be taken away from Canada. And so I didn't know that.

And so whenever I went there and I saw these people advocating to spread the gospel, it was insane because we've never seen anything like that in America here. And so that was one of the things where I was like, man, it really opened my eyes of how in different nations, people are really persecuted for their faith and for believing in Jesus.

And we're almost privileged in a sense to experience and see Jesus and have this overexposure of him here in America. But yet we deny his power because we think that we know him because we see him so much. But it's like, you just know his face and you know the name, but you don't know the nature.

Whenever I went to Indonesia in June, I had the amazing pleasure and opportunity to take 18 women to Bali in Indonesia to disciple them. And with that came a lot of months and weeks of preparation spiritually of how to operate in this terrain in Indonesia. Because in Indonesia, 85% of the population is Hindu. And then we have 5% of the population identify as Christian.

And so Indonesia is actually pretty open-minded to accepting all religions and beliefs. And I believe that also has to tie a little bit into Hinduism because Hinduism is very open-minded. Basically what Hindus believe is they believe in one God, but they believe that that one God can manifest in millions of forms. So they believe that there is one true authentic God,

But there's not just one essence and one being of that God that it can manifest in statues. It can manifest in people. It can manifest in birds and monkeys and animals. And so obviously as Christians, that's what we don't believe. We believe that there is a Father, Son, and a Holy Spirit. And so I was coming into a terrain to where I had to... know and exercise what the other side believed.

And so as we're in Indonesia and as I'm ministering and working with these women and talking to other local people and understanding the Christians that experience persecution and a separation in Indonesia, it's far more different than what we experience here in America. And it is such a huge difference. And we have to understand that.

And we have to be aware of that because it's almost as if Americans are not grateful for the faith that is, that is so easily accessible to us. But there are people all over the world who are quite literally fighting for their faith and people who have to worship and read a Bible, whether if it's underground or secretly or away, like, like,
