Although Christianity is poised to numerically overtake ethnic religions in the near future, far too many Christians have a syncretized, compromised faith that sees them in church on Sunday and consulting the witch doctor during the week. Pray for a revival that purifies the church and sees Christians honoring God alone. Benin is one of the few places where there is freedom, receptivity, and fruitfulness in reaching Muslim peoples with the good news. From Operation World DVD-ROM 2010 and www.operationworld.org
