There are many religions in the world and I do not claim to know every single one of them, but, sometimes you come across one that is like, WOW REALLY? I had that experience this week in our Window on the World lesson.
Berbers of the Rif Mountain Range North of Morocco. 1.500,000 live there. (est)
They are mainly farmers.
We looked at a holiday they celebrate.....the feast of Eid-el-Kabir. Muslims sacrifice a sheep to celebrate Abraham's willingness to sacrifice "Ishmael" - not Isaac as Christians know it. Genesis 22.
There were Berber Christians in the years following Jesus' death. Some even died for their faith. The church grew smaller . AD1100 there were no Berber Christians. Thankfully they are starting to follow Jesus more.
