Bonus: Plane Hijacked in Africa – Pilot’s Story (Part 1) | On the Ground with Samaritan’s Purse

We’re sharing a special bonus episode from the podcast On the Ground with Samaritan’s Purse, hosted by Kristy Graham. The show brings listeners close to the front lines of global ministry through stories of faith, courage, and God’s work through Samaritan’s Purse. Today's episode covers Missionary pilot Jim Streit's story. When someone put a gun in his face, Jim had a choice—he could either let fear take over or he could trust Jesus with his life. As Jim’s plane was hijacked in Africa, the Lord brought Scriptures back to his mind and reminded him that there is power in the Name of Jesus. Hear from Jim Streit, who was in the air, and from Matt Olson, who was on the ground in North Carolina, about how God came through in a mighty way. Together, they reflect on how God’s presence and protection were evident in the middle of an unexpected and dangerous crisis. Content Note: This episode includes descriptions of a dangerous situation involving a firearm and may be intense for some listeners.
