Congo on Fire: The DRC Conflict & the Church’s Response

Right now, families and whole communities are being torn apart in the DRC as conflict continues. As mainstream news chooses to look the other way, the time is critical for the body of Christ to respond. We are here to get you an inside perspective on what is actually going on in the DRC. 

In this episode of the Keystone Project Podcast, we welcome Wayne and Arlene Wilson, missionaries who served in Ghana and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). They share their powerful journey of faith, the challenges of leaving their family behind, and the realities of life in conflict zones. 

The discussion covers their experiences with cultural adaptation, security threats, and the heartbreaking violence affecting civilians. They provide first-hand insight into tribal conflicts, government corruption, and religious extremism, particularly the increasing influence of militant groups like the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF). 

Listeners will gain a deeper understanding of the struggles faced by local communities, the role of the global church in humanitarian efforts, and the power of faith in dangerous situations. The episode also sheds light on practical ways to support displaced families and missionaries working in high-risk areas.
