Whether you commit to monthly support of this ministry, make a special one-time gift, or become a member our prayer team, every bit helps. This is an unprecedented moment in religious history. Millions prayed for an end to communism, and the Iron Curtain fell with a thunderous crash. But before the dust even settled, the Jehovah's Witnesses, Moonies, Scientologists, Mormons, and other cultists, long prepared for this very opportunity, flooded in. Today, cults armed with hundreds of millions of dollars are determined to exploit and virtually undo every bit of evangelism being achieved by every Christian group in the former Soviet Union and its satellite nations.
Believers there are still amazingly vulnerable.
Many churches are being led by pastors who are only a year or two old in the faith themselves. Across the region, preventable tragedies abound. These haunting facts merely scratch the surface. When one reads the desperate, sometimes frantic letters from pastors, lay Christians, and others crying out for help, one can't help but believe that our action or inaction today will determine the destiny of generations to come. Established in 1993, the Center for Apologetics Research is the first and only evangelical outreach dedicated to equipping Christians throughout the former Soviet Union with the tools they urgently need to discern, resist, and evangelize the cults and contend with heretical movements within the church.
