Proclaiming the Gospel in the Middle East
Christ Our Hope: Amman, Jordan
Where can true hope be found?
For generations, people in the Middle East have lived through conflict, uncertainty, and upheaval. Families wonder what tomorrow will bring. Young people search for meaning in a world filled with uncertainty. They’ve watched promises of peace come and go, searching for “an anchor for the soul, firm and secure” (Hebrews 6:19).
On September 4th, Dr. Michael A. Youssef will stand in Amman, Jordan, to proclaim the answer to that question: in Jesus Christ alone.
For 30 years, Dr. Youssef’s Bible teaching has reached millions of homes across the Middle East. As he returns to the region where God first shaped his life, he returns with a deep love for the people and a burden for them know the Truth of Christ.

Dr. Youssef’s Message to Jordanians Ahead of “Christ Our Hope”
A Rare Opportunity in a Turbulent Region
In recent months, the ripple effects of the Iran-Israel conflict have reached Jordan, with attacks forcing people to confront the reality that instability beyond its borders can quickly become its own.
-
But God is at work—and through Leading The Way’s Christ Our Hope event, He is opening a door.
Approximately 1,000-1,500 people are expected to gather in Amman, Jordan, where Dr. Youssef will proclaim the Gospel and call people to respond to the saving grace of Jesus. Before the gathering, Dr. Youssef and his personal friend O. S. Hawkins, Chancellor of Southwestern Seminary, will equip local pastors to disciple new believers for a lifetime of growth in Christ. This partnership with local churches is key to long-term flourishing and spiritual fruit.
A Rare Opportunity in a Turbulent Region
God is opening hearts to the Gospel across the Middle East. These recent testimonies from Leading The Way’s 24/7 KINGDOM SAT channel reveal a deep hunger for Truth in Jordan—and remind us that no barrier is too great for the Gospel, and no heart is beyond Christ’s reach.
After my mother dreamed of Jesus Christ, our family began studying the Christian faith. My mother, sister, and I have all surrendered our lives to Jesus. He is our Lord and Savior.

As we prepare for this Gospel outreach, the promise of Acts 4:12 compels us:

There is no other name. No other Savior. No other hope.
