The 30 Days of Prayer for North Korea will consist of stories and testimonies collected by Back to Jerusalem over the last twenty years. Each day of prayer will only take five minutes to read through, but your continuous prayer throughout the day for the entire 30 days is essential. Many brave missionaries have recently tried to bring the Gospel to the nation, but it seems that their efforts have been repeatedly repelled over and over again. 

We believe that the day is coming when the spiritual walls around North Korea will come tumbling down and the freedom of Christ will prevail in the hearts of the people, but in order to see that, the Body of Christ needs to pray; pray like never before.

We have a special collection of Christmas songs that come directly from the underground house church in China.

More than 200 years ago, Robert Morrison had a dream to get the Bible into the most populated nation on earth, but that dream was said to be unattainable. Robert Morrison dared to do it anyway. Now, in our latest book 'Bury Me In China', read for the first time how Morrison gave the ultimate sacrifice to translate, print, smuggle, and distribute the entire Chinese Bible inside China – how he lost friends and loved ones, buried two children, a wife, and eventually died on the mission field, thousands of miles away from the land of his birth.

The Terrible Red Dwarf a little tale for children like the folklore of the Brothers Grimm, written in the 1800s, of a naughty dwarf who plagued the local villages, burning houses and robbing the inhabitants until timely intervention by the King put pay to his dastardly ways. Written in Cornwall, buried in the south of England, this little book made its way to the other side of the world; its message reaching thousands in China. It tells a tale of caution, warning against the downfall that can be swiftly brought about by the words that so easily escape our mouths. Reintroduce your children to a story heard by children 200 years ago and its message of truth.

Robert Morrison was a cross-cultural missionary pioneer who changed the trajectory of Christianity in China forever.

Eugene explains how and why we do it.

There are two very different ways of looking at the “15-minute city” idea. For some, it’s a sustainable, convenient, progressive urban planning concept.

This is Back to Jerusalem Story Time. We read the words of Christians from long ago that had so much to say, but have been forgotten. Join us as we read from the most recent book published by BTJ, A Voice In The Darkness.

There seems to be an undeniable ‘dumbing down‘ pervasive in Christian literature today. Many Christian books deliberately oversimplify the complexity of God’s Word and the struggles of man and this has arguably created a weak Christian culture unable to answer difficult questions about faith. Perhaps this is why authors like C.S. Lewis, G.K. Chesterton, and John Bunyan have stood the test of time, but are there any others? Good news. There are even more refreshing authors who have written books you may never have heard of that will change the way you think and look at the world. Griffith John’s book “A VOICE IN THE DARKNESS” is one of those books, and it is now available as a eBook. Eugene shares more on this episode of the podcast.
