Is God better than the people we love the most?

COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: The Czech Republic
LANGUAGES: Czech, English, Greek
The Czech Film Series
Responding to God’s leading, we filmed six Czech testimonies and created an interactive Prayer Guide to serve the people of the Czech Republic. The Czech films are meant to encourage Christians and engage non-Christians within the nation, and our Prayer Guide is designed to inspire worldwide prayers for the Czech Republic, where 99% of the residents don’t know Jesus.
