A persecution watchdog is tracking some new trends

(SRN NEWS)-Global Christian Relief is out with a comprehensive report on the abuse of believers around the world and in the midst of all the bad news, there is some light.  The GCR says one of the trends it will be watching in 2026 is a budding new interest in religious freedom in the West, led by the United States.  The report says “Nothing shaped the global conversation on the issue more than the return of Donald Trump to the White House, surrounded by high-profile Christian political actors.”
