What’s Life Like For Christians?
Secret believers in Saudi Arabia have become bolder in recent times, sharing their Christian faith with others on the internet and Christian satellite TV channels. Those caught have faced serious repercussions.
Becoming a Christian in Saudi Arabia is incredibly risky. It’s illegal to leave the Islamic faith. New believers face intense opposition from their families and communities if they do. In a shame and honour culture, converting from Islam to Christianity is considered the worst thing a person can do. Converts face pressure, being disowned, locked away, beaten, or even killed to restore the family’s honour.
