ខ្ញុំរស់នៅ Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia — a city that has risen from the desert sands into a glittering metropolis in just a few generations. Once a small tribal village, it now stands as a symbol of progress, wealth, and ambition. Towering skyscrapers pierce the skyline, highways hum with life, and the rhythm of change beats faster each year. Yet beneath the surface of all this advancement, there is a quiet emptiness — a spiritual thirst no modernization can satisfy.

This land was once declared closed to every faith but Islam. For 1,400 years, the shadow of that decree has shaped who we are as a people. But even here, in the heart of the kingdom, Jesus is at work. Through digital media, through encounters abroad, and through the courage of believers who share quietly and carefully, Saudis are coming to faith. Many have met the Messiah in dreams and visions, their lives forever changed.

With the Crown Prince’s vision of a modern Saudi Arabia has come a small but significant shift — a new openness, a softening of old boundaries. I believe this is the moment for the Saudi Church to rise, to walk in love and truth, and to claim our land not by force, but by faith. Riyadh may have been built on desert rock, but God is planting seeds here — seeds that will one day bloom into worship for the King of Kings.
