Daylight and everything. This is the worst part. The calm before the battle. I saw you with those two “ladies of the evening” at Elzars. Explain that. Leela, Bender, we’re going grave robbing. Who am I making this out to?

Faithful to the End: Powerful New Film Marks Ten Years after 21 Christians Martyred by ISIS

Published

on

Egypt – Ten years ago, ISIS terrorists marched 21 Christian men to their deaths on a Libyan beach. Their story of faith, sacrifice, and eternal hope is now being memorialized in a new animated film.

February, 2015. Twenty-one men stood on the edge of eternity. On a Mediterranean beach. Dressed in orange. Hands bound. They were given one choice: deny their faith or die. They chose death.

Nermien Riad, founder of the group, Coptic Orphans, who worked with orphans in the village where the men were from and later worked with the martyrs’ families, recalled, “We heard about it as soon as it happened to basically once the video was broadcast, it spread like wildfire.”

She added, “It was a declaration by the Islamic State to put fear in the heart, of the Coptic Church and the Coptic people, whom they considered their favorite prey.”

While the world saw their deaths, their families felt the loss of fathers, brothers, and sons.

Riad noted, “For the families, it was devastating. I don’t think they even consider themselves martyrs. They just saw that their husbands had just been killed. Their fathers had just been killed. Their brothers had just been killed – and so the families mourned greatly.”

They were simple men, twenty Egyptians and one man from Ghana in Libya, working to support their families. Then they were captured by ISIS.

Mark Rodgers of More Productions, produced a documentary on their lives.

“I think for many people, we’ve seen (and) remember the images – at least the orange jumpsuits where the 21 were beheaded. And we know that they did not recant their faith. What we don’t know is that that came only after weeks, if not even months, of torture and other efforts to get those 21 to recant of their faith.”

Six years ago, on a trip to Egypt, Mark Rodgers learned about the 21 and decided to tell their story.

Bringing it to the screen proved to be a labor of faith and perseverance. The result is an animated film called “The 21.”

Rodgers explained, “It took six years to make there, over 70 animators of over 20 countries that participated in the making. So it was really a global effort to support this community’s own story, to elevate it, because, in some ways, it’s all of our story as Christians.”

Mandi Hart of More Productions oversaw the making of the film.

“It was a real joy to have so many artists from literally around the world contribute,” she stated.

“The 21” then made it to the Oscar shortlist for best-animated film.

Hart explained, “We always aimed to produce the film at a level of quality that it would be competitive at that level of the Oscars, but never had any real expectation that we would make it that far in the process And out of 90 films, the 15 that were chosen, our film was one and God gets all the credit for that. And it was just wonderful to have the film elevated in that way. It was never our primary goal, but I feel very blessed that that level of visibility in the industry allowed us to reach an audience we wouldn’t have otherwise.”

Unlike traditional documentaries, the film uses sacred Coptic imagery, turning the martyrs’ final moments into a visual prayer of faith.

Author Joel Rosenberg of All Israel News, observed, “It’s very tastefully done, but it’s also very evocative. It’s the animation, using Egyptian iconography. This Egyptian Christian – specifically Christian – artwork. It makes it very, very interesting when these ISIS terrorists occasionally think they see Jesus or angels, and they’re getting – there’s like a spiritual warfare crackling in both directions.”

He added, “How do you, how would you depict that in a documentary?” You, you can’t. So, there’s something very, very moving. I’m still trying to catch my breath because – it’s because I was crying at the end.”

Jonathan Roumie, who plays Jesus on “The Chosen,” is an executive producer of “The 21.”

He told CBN News the martyrdom of these 21 men transcended tragedy by becoming a testament of faith for persecuted Christians worldwide.

“I think I want people to be more aware of the sacrifices that so many Christians, give, especially in other parts of the world,” Roumie said. “It’s not – martyrdom is not something that is common in the Western world, but in the Middle East, in the Orient, and in places where there are legitimate and physical threats to people on a daily basis.”

Roumie continued, “They just set an example for the rest of the world about what it means to be a believer in Christ and to have your faith, mean everything.”

Riad explained, “They caught one guard, and, he was the one that explained all the details of what happened to them and how they were tortured, how they were caught, how they rehearsed the video two times before they marched him on the beach. They had the cameras rolling, and they prepared their filming. And then the third time was when they were beheaded.”

Rodgers described some of what the men endured. He said, “Tortures included being sprayed with cold water and not letting them sleep in the cold of winter, and included having them drag wet sand through the desert until they collapsed, and included burning them with irons – emotional torture, isolation. So all kinds of different tortures, physical and emotional.”

As the head of Coptic Orphans, Riad and her ministry were already working in the village of the 21 martyrs.

She told us, “We were working very closely with the church and with the bishop. And so now that there are new fatherless children, we were able to embrace them and enroll them into our programs so that we could walk with them. That journey, the journey of healing, the journey of support, both financial and emotional support.”

Riad now knows them as family.

“They are resilient. They are a joy,” she said proudly. “You wouldn’t think that you know. You would think that they were traumatized and still would be traumatized, but yet they have a peace. They have a joy that, in all honesty, (is) contagious. When you see when you see how much they know that Christ is with them, that Christ is the one who is giving them that peace, and they are thankful.”

Riad remembered, “I was sitting in the middle of all the widows when they were seeing (the film) for the very first time. And the comments of – I saw my beloved, I saw, you know, a mother almost reliving her sense with having lost her son. But at the same time, she says, you have made it so we can lift our heads high. My beloved.”

One of the martyrs’ wives, Mariam Youssef Hanna Ibrahim, confided, “It was a very impactful film. But God gave us comfort, and we know that they testified to Christ, and God gave them a lot of strength as well.”

“You have to remember, she said, “these are young men and they’re not very well-off. But look how strong their faith was. And you also have to remember that they didn’t know how they were going to get back to Egypt. They didn’t know anything in front of them, but all they knew is that God was with them.”

“We’re all sisters,” she said. “We’re one hand working together and we visit each other. We’re not, like, separate. We’re all one.”

Mariam Ezzat Boushra, another wife of one of the men, declared, “It was – I felt tearful and it really impacted me. But nevertheless, it was very beautiful.”

We asked her, “Do you forgive the men of ISIS?”

She replied, “Yes. Of course. Because they’re the reason that these martyrs went to heaven in the first place.”

Roumie also spent time with the families.

“It was pretty intense and humbling,” he recalled. “And their joy and their forgiveness for the killers is something that just defies human comprehension, and serves as an example for all of us as to how to live Christ’s, you know, laws and rules and, and (the) ethos of, you know, turning the other cheek and forgiving your enemy. And, praying for those who persecute you, that these women, and families are living that that out.”

Mariam Ezzat Boushra told us, “There are some people who say to us, wow, it’s already been ten years. But for us, it’s like we’ve been climbing a mountain … We really feel like we missed them and it’s, it’s not we don’t forget about that just because they’re martyrs. But of course, God is strengthening us and he’s never left us. I hope that in the same way that the story of the martyrs has been able to affect the whole world and impacted this film also will have an impact on the whole world. And the thing that touched me the most in this film is when we saw the feet of the martyrs walking alongside the feet of Christ.”

For the first time in history, both the Coptic Church and the Catholic Church recognize the 21 as saints.

Rodgers has three hopes for the film.

He told us, “One is a deeper understanding of our own Christian heritage in this region. A second – it would be wonderful to see this film be promoted widely so that people, inside the Church can see the courage and the faith of the martyrs and be encouraged in their own faith. And just to kind of promote a freedom of religion that people can practice whatever they want to believe without persecution would be the third goal.”

The 21 doesn’t just recount history, it invites viewers to reflect on what faith truly means when faced with death.

Hart stated, “We want the world to know and be inspired and challenged by this story. It’s a very specific story, and yet it’s also universal. And for us as a team, one of the things that we’ve had to ask ourselves constantly in light of this story is, what would I be willing to die for? And I think that’s an important question for every human being.”

Roumie observed, “The film poses a question that I think is worthy to each and every one of us that are followers of Christ: how would we respond to that call? What would we do in their shoes? And could we be as faithful? And I, you know, I find myself challenged by the question, and I pray the answer is yes. And in my heart, it’s yes. And I pray, you know I will go to my grave with the same confession of Jesus’s name on my lips. and so that’s the aspiration towards sainthood and to follow Christ and what it truly means to be a follower. But the question remains, like, could you do it?”

Mariam Youssef Hanna Ibrahim concluded, “I would tell them, you should watch the video of the incident, and you should see how calm and peaceful these men are and how they’re all together. They left no one behind. And let this be an inspiration for you.”

Rosenberg reflected, “I think we can learn a lot by learning for the courage of, in this case, 21 men, 20 Egyptians and one Ghanaian who loved Jesus so much that even though they were offered money and they were threatened and they were tortured, they said, ‘The next person we’re going to see is Jesus. So we’re not going to betray him.'”

Rodgers told CBN News, “I think everybody who sees the film on the 10th anniversary, we hope and pray, will forward it to somebody else to watch it, including people that may not know Jesus,” Rodgers said. “And I think the way I feel now is we’ve got something that we’ve produced that really can be shared and be effective in introducing people to Jesus.”

Riad from the orphanage shared, “Oh, I would love to see every single Christian around the world to watch this movie. It’s it’s inspirational. It gives us hope. And it shows us the power of faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. So I, I’m praying that indeed, it will spread like wildfire.”

The martyrs walked to their deaths. Their final words were the name of Jesus. Now, ten years later, their testimony continues to inspire millions.

New Documentary Exposes Severe Persecution of Evangelical Christians by Russia

Published

on

A new documentary is shining a light on the growing persecution of evangelical Christians here in Ukraine, a crisis that remains largely unknown in the West. “A Faith Under Siege” takes viewers to the front lines, where pastors and missionaries are providing hope amidst the horrors of war.

The Russian war against Ukraine has inflicted devastating tolls, not only on soldiers but also on Christians who refuse to bow to Moscow’s demands. The new documentary aims to expose the truth about religious persecution in Ukraine.

Executive producer Colby Barrett explained, “Right now there’s so much propaganda out there around these kind of issues that we wanted to get right to the truth and talk to the people that had suffered under Russian occupation for their faith. And that’s really the heart of the documentary.”

“A Faith Under Siege” features firsthand accounts of pastors, aid workers, and believers who have been captured, tortured, or forced to flee because of their faith.

Barrett noted, “The folks that stayed in these war-torn areas to help and to minister to their folks and to others, to provide aid, were really doing some amazing stuff. And what you see when the Russians took over and found these evangelicals, they find them very threatening.”

Russian propaganda often claims to uphold traditional values, but on the ground in Ukraine, evangelicals are targeted as threats to the Kremlin’s control.

“Evangelicals especially are very loyal to our leader, Jesus, not so much political leaders… And so when they find evangelicals, and they are only loyal to God, that’s disruptive,” Barrett explained.

CBN News traveled to Ukraine to join former Green Beret Christian Hickey, who moved to Ukraine in 2022 as a missionary to soldiers fighting on the front lines.

Hickey shared, “We’ve been bringing in thousands of audio Bibles to Ukrainian soldiers and civilians. It’s one of the best ways to get Scripture into their hands. They can listen while they’re on the move, while they’re taking shelter. And we know from experience that God’s word never returns void.”

The documentary isn’t just about exposing Russian war crimes; it also serves as a call to action for Christians worldwide to pray and stand with their brothers and sisters in Ukraine.

“So the purpose of this movie isn’t to make a bunch of money. We’re going to be providing it for free. And what we’re really relying on is that our American brothers and sisters, especially in the Christian community, latch onto this and want to host screenings and show it in their own communities,” Barrett said.

The film is gaining exposure at the Museum of the Bible, and producers hope to shed light on the crisis and mobilize Christians.

Reporting on the ground has confirmed the claims made in the documentary that evangelical Christians in Ukraine are facing targeted persecution at the hands of Russian forces. Barrett concluded, “We pray for the Christians that are caught in this conflict, that they’re able to serve as a model for our faith… as well as just an end to this war, a just end to this war.”
