Mission updates from the Middle East and Armenia. Read hopeful reports from within Syria and among refugees. With help from JMP, one family is making a life against the odds in Aleppo, and one refugee is rebuilding his life in Lebanon after devastating loss. The Jinishian Memorial Program has served within these communities for 50 years, and we are not leaving now.

신학적 대화 2017-1: 로라 마리코 하이페츠Laura Mariko Cheifetz, 켄터키 주 루이빌에 있는 장로교 출판사의 교회 관계 담당 부사장에 의한 "신학과 용감성". 신학 교육 및 신학 연구원의 코디네이터인 미셸 바텔(Michelle Bartel)은 다음과 같이 기록합니다.
