Day 10 Haiti

DAY 10:

WHAT IF? You are asked to start a Bible study group in a region where people are steeped in practicing voodoo? Would you go?

Voodoo is a spirit religion which has evolved from ancient traditions of ancestor worship and animism. Simply put, voodoo followers worship demonic spirits and aim to be possessed by them so they may become a “god” themselves.

Bible League has Project Philip Bible study leaders and church planters who work amongst these spiritually oppressed communities. Despite the battle they face, they know that Jesus has already won the victory over all evil! As God’s Word is shared and explained, many people’s lives are transformed as they turn from their evil practices and follow Jesus.

Would you start a Bible study group in a region where people are steeped in practicing voodoo?

Remember that Jesus triumphed over evil at the cross!

“And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.”
Colossians 2:14-15
