Moroccan Muslim Tortured & Persecuted For Accepting Christ

<br />
"I was raised in a very strict family, I was punished all the time If I failed to comply by the teachings of Islam," Adam began. "I remember it was Ramadan and I did not pray, and for that my mom hit me on my nose, and she broke it and it is still broken until now."<br />

Taking a Second Look at Islam<br />
<br />
At age 20, Adam moved to Canada and met many Arab Christians. <br />
