Roughly 6.5 million people live in the Mediterranean nation of Asia Minor. With open evangelism outlawed by the state, 99.9% of the entire population remains historically Muslim with only a few hundred Christians scattered here and there. As more Western influences have begun making their way into the larger cities of Asia Minor, however, the doors to Christianity have also begun to open. Traditional Muslims are slowly beginning to see the love of Christ as their Savior and Lord. The 2002 World Cup served to strengthen the bonds of brotherhood between Korea and Asia Minor born of the Korean War fifty years ago. Asia Minor also maintains a positive working relationship with the United States as well. Therefore, young Asian-American students are effective tools for spreading the Gospel and the Love of Christ to the people within this nation. |
