In Albania, Radio is Their Church

Imagine living without a church in your town. For some in Albania, it’s a reality. In this predominantly atheist nation, the radio programs from The Tide® may be people’s only gateway to Jesus. For example, there isn’t a church where Albanian resident Tereza lives. Thus she considers radio her church. The Tide Albanian language radio program, which airs on Radio 7 Albania, has allowed her to better understand the Bible. Tereza reports that the host of the show makes her feel positive and blessed.

“We love to hear stories of life change like Tereza’s,” said Director Don Shenk. “Her testimony illustrates how lives worldwide are improving every day. By of the generosity of faithful believers, our programs can reach remote corners of the globe.”

The Tide’s newest initiative, “Every Knee, Every Tongue,” allows Christians to spread the Word of God and proclaim the gospel message around the world. Through “Every Knee, Every Tongue,” all are welcome to sponsor Christian radio broadcasts produced by The Tide ministry. Broadcasts are recorded by local, indigenous pastors in communities around the world.

The Tide ministry will offer programming in its 25th heart language—Isaan—later this year. That initiative will allow Thailand to join multiple regions of Zimbabwe, India, Nigeria, Nepal, Bhutan, Albania and Kosovo, where The Tide ministry is already active in broadcasting Gospel radio programming—in the languages people were born to speak.
