There are 13 Muslim tribes in the Philippines, and the Sama, a group with low levels of education and high levels of poverty, are the lowest and the least amongst them. They are denied employment and access to communal resources. And things get even worse when they convert and become a Christian. Yet, these believers are standing firm through it all - ‘no turning back’.Matt*, a Sama tribesman from the Philippines, works as a fisherman alongside his ministry. His first wife left him when he became a Christian, and she married someone else. Matt decided to remain single for seven years, prayed and fasted to ask God for another wife. And God brought him Lydia*.While Matt is the pastor of the church, Lydia very much leads alongside him. She helps to lead the worship, the prayers and encouraging young believers to read the Bible and pray.* names changed and representative image used for security reasons  -- source link
