Meet Tass Saada, a Muslim-background believer who is working to bring peace in the Middle East through Jesus Christ
Convention is coming up, and the testimony of Tass Saada, a former Muslim terrorist, is one you won’t want to miss! Join us at Friday evening’s session, where you’ll hear the story of a life changed from extreme hate to genuine love. After his conversion in 1993, Tass was reconciled to the Jewish people as the children of the covenant. As early as the year 2000, Tass and his wife Karen have been working to reconcile Arabs, Jews, and Christians through Jesus Christ, first in the United States and now in the Gaza Strip through Seeds of Hope, a non-government humanitarian aid organization in Jericho and Jerusalem. Through humanitarian aid, education, economic development, and cultural exchange, Seeds of Hope has attained a surprising level of favor with the local authorities in the West Bank. This kind of success is unheard of in an environment that is typically hostile to the Gospel, both in the Muslim and Jewish community.
Says Tass, “We received the favor by serving ALL people groups, regardless of religious denomination or affiliation. By showing this kind of love, we have seen many Muslims receive Jesus.” Through education programs, Seeds of Hope has also seen children open their minds beyond borders and gain a broader world vision, even though they are unable to leave the country. In turn, they are affecting their parents as they learn and share with them. As parents see this love for their children, they have opened their homes and lives to the Light of Christ.
Tass’s new book, The Mind of Terror, slated for release July 1, speaks to the current terror crisis and how we as believers can make the difference. He will be sharing much about his own experience inside the world of terrorism, and how we can effect change and turn the tide. God is moving in the Middle East. Come prepared to hear a true story of hope in the midst of overwhelming odds.
