I praise my Lord and Savior that someone ( Rick Scarborough) is finally bringing attention to the plight of persecuted Christians. He could have joined with the popular crowd and stood up for persecuted Christians in China, North Korea, or those being massacred in Sudan, but come on, enough is being done for them.
