Andrew Brunson had been a missionary in Turkey for 23 years when he unwittingly became a hostage in a grand political game between Turkey and the US. He was wrongfully imprisoned for two years in Turkish jail on false charges of espionage, terrorism and arms smuggling before he was finally released in October 2018.
Andrew sad i celle med 20 radikale muslimer samt i isolation. Her gennemgik han en dyb troskrise, hvor han ikke kunne fornemme Guds nærvær, tvivlede og nærmede sig psykisk sygdom. Men gennem det hele begyndte han at se konturerne af Guds plan og se hans indgriben.
Dansk Europamissions læsere bad meget for Andrew og Norine samt underskrev appelbreve med anmodning om løsladelse, som blev sendt til det tyrkiske indenrigsministerium.
Efter anden dag i retssagen, den 7. maj, står det mere klart end nogensinde før, at Andrew Brunson holdes som politisk gidsel, og at der ikke er hold i beviserne…
På retsmødet den 16. april blev det gjort klart at Andrew Brunsons forbrydelse er evangelisation blandt kurderne, hvilket Tyrkiet kalder ”kristianisering” og som landet anser som en terrorhandling.
