PLUS, RADICAL ISLAM IS SPREADING BEYOND JUST THE MIDDLE EAST. HOW TERROR GROUPS LIKE BOKO HARAM ARE TAKING OVER WEST AFRICA. IN A FILM-MAKER'S DECADE-LONG JOURNEY TO FIND THE TRUTH BEHIND ONE OF THE BIBLE'S MOST FAMOUS STORIES. ISIS MILITANTS ARE TAKING CHRISTIANS HOSTAGE IN SYRIA. WELCOME TO THIS WEEK'S EDITION OF CHRISTIAN WORLD NEWS. I'M GEORGE THOMAS. MY COLLEAGUE, WENDY GRIFFITH, IS ON ASSIGNMENT. THE JIHADIST ARMY KNOWN AS ISIS HAS RAIDED AT LEAST 33 ASSYRIAN VILLAGES, TAKING AS MANY AS 300 HOSTAGE. HUMANITARIAN ORGANIZATIONS CONFIRM THAT ISIS HAS BEEN TARGETING ASSYRIAN CHRISTIANS. IT BEGAN AS THE MILITANTS SUFFERED TO MAJOR SETBACKS ON THE BATTLE FIELD. GARY LANE HAS DETAILS. >> Reporter: ISIS FORCES WERE ROUTED FROM AL-BAGHDAD, A CITY WEST OF BAGHDAD THAT THEY'VE HELD SINCE LAST JUNE. BUT al-BAGHDAD WAS NOT THE ONLY TOWN OF DEFEAT. PESHMERGA TROOPS IN NORTHEASTERN SYRIA, KNOWN AS THE Y.P.G., DROVE THEM FROM THE CITY OF TAL TAMER. BUT AS THEY RETREATED, THE ISIS KIDNAPPED ASSYRIAN CHRISTIANS. THE MEN WERE TAKEN TO AN UNDISCLOSED LOCATION, AND WOMEN TO A NEARBY MOUNTAIN. ISIS MAY BEHEAD THE MEN AND USE THE WOMEN AS SEX SLAVES. JULIANNA IS WITH THE ASSYRIAN PROJECT. >> THESE WOMEN ARE SOBBING, SAYING WHY IS THE WEST SILENT. WHY IS THE CHURCH NOT TALKING ABOUT OUR PERSECUTION. THEY'RE ASKING AND QUESTIONING THE FOREIGN POLICY OF AMERICA AND ALSO OTHER WORLD POWERS IN EUROPE, SAYING THAT WHY IS IT THAT THERE IS NOTHING, THERE IS NO AGENDA, THERE IS REALLY NOTHING THAT IS BEING DONE TO HELP THE PERSECUTED IN THE MIDDLE EAST. >> U.S., WAKE UP! >> A GROUP OF EGYPTIAN AMERICAN COPTICS GATHERED NEAR THE WHITE HOUSE ON TUESDAY, DEMANDING THAT THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION DO MORE TO PROTECT THE CHRISTIAN SYRIAN AND EGYPTIANS. >> THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION REFERRED TO THEM IN THEIR WHITE HOUSE STATEMENT AS ñ EGYPTIAN CITIZENS, AND THAT IS VERY DISAPPOINTING TO THE COPTIC COMMUNITY. >> BROTHERHOOD, ISIS, BOKO HARAM, I WANT THEM TO TAKE ACTION AGAINST THEM. >> Reporter: AND EGYPTIAN PRESIDENT EL-SISI IS CALLING FOR A UNITED ARAB MILITARY FORCE TO COMBAT ISIS. AND HE SAYS ALREADY JORDAN AND THE UNITED ARAB EMRIGHTS HAVE OFFERED TO HELP THEM ON THE BATTLE FIELD. >> George: AND GARY STOKE WITH TOM DOYLE, AUTHOR OF THE NEW BOOK "KILLING CHRISTIANS, LIVING THE FAITH WHERE IT IS NOT SAFE TO BELIEVE." GARY ASKED TOM ABOUT THESE AND THE MOST RECENT ATROCITIES. >> Reporter: THIS IS DISTURBING, WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED ABOUT THE ABDUCTION THIS WEEK OF THOSE CHRISTIANS IN SYRIA? >> SOME OF OUR LEADERS IN SYRIA HAVE FAMILY MEMBERS THAT WERE TAKEN, AND THE NEWS WE RECEIVED THIS MORNING IS THAT ISIS HAS ANNOUNCED THEY'RE GOING TO BURN 30 CHURCHES TO THE GROUND. WE ALREADY KNOW OF SOME KILLINGS HAPPENING. BUT WE'RE PRAYING THAT THE CHURCH AND THE WORLD CRIES OUT FOR THESE LIVES. IT IS 100 TO 200 THAT ARE TAKEN. IT IS A TERRIBLE TRAGEDY. >> Reporter: AND WHEN YOU SAY "WE KNOW OF SOME KILLINGS," ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT THE CHRISTIANS THAT HAVE BEEN KILLED THAT WE CAN CONFIRM, OR OTHERS IN THE AREA? >> THAT'S ONE WHAT ONE OF OUR LEADERS IN SYRIA SAID. THEY HAVE TROUBLE GETTING THE NEWS SOMETIMES. HE MENTIONED THEY KNEW OF SEVEN THAT WERE KILLED. IT HASN'T BEEN CONFIRMED INTERNATIONALLY YET. AND HE IS RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THOSE VILLAGES AND HEARING THINGS JUST ON THE GROUND. >> Reporter: WHY DID YOU WRITE YOUR LATEST BOOK "KILLING CHRISTIANS?" ? IT IS REALLY ABOUT THE SITUATION, GARY, THAT THEY'RE KILLING CHRISTIANS IN THE MIDDLE EAST. IT IS A GLOBAL EPIDEMIC. IT IS A PANDEMIC, ALL AROUND US. BUT I WANTED TO TELL THE STORIES ABOUT THOSE FOLKS WHO ARE LIVING IN THE MIDST OF THIS DANGER. I REALLY DO THINK, GARY, SOME OF THE PEOPLE IN THIS BOOK -- IF HEBREWS 11 WAS WRITTEN TODAY, THEY MIGHT BE CONTAINED IN IT, STANDING, SERVING CHRIST, SHARING THE GOSPEL IN THE MIDST OF ISIS. I WAS JUST PRAYING FOR ONE OF OUR LEADERS THE OTHER DAY IN SYRIA, WHO WAS SHARING THE GOSPEL WITH AN ISIS MAN, WHO IS PRIVATELY FRUSTRATED WITH WHAT HE IS DOING. IT IS JUST A JOB FOR HIM. AND HE IS OPEN TO THE GOSPEL. WE KNOW NONE ARE UNREACHABLE. AND THEIR LIVES WILL INSPIRE YOU. >> Reporter: TOM, I'M SURE YOU MET A NUMBER OF THE YAZIDIS, AS I HAVE, AND THEY'RE REALLY OPEN TO THE GOSPEL THERE, AS IS MANY OF THE KURDS. AND HOW SHOULD WE BE PRAYING FOR THEM, AND NOT ONLY FOR THEM, BUT FOR ISIS AND THE SAVED AND UNSAVED. >> I THINK SATAN IS NOT STUPID. HE KNOWS IN THE LAST 10 YEARS MORE MUSLIMS HAVE COME TO FAITH THAN IN THE LAST 14 CENTURIES OF ISLAM. SO IF HE CAN KEEP CHRISTIANS IN FEAR OF MUSLIMS OR ANGRY AT THEM, OR HATEFUL, THINKING THAT EVERY ONE OF THEM SERVES FOR ISIS, OR WORKS WITH ISIS, THIS HORRIBLE TERRORIST GROUP, THEN WE'LL STAY AWAY. SO HE IS NOT ONLY TRYING TO CAUSE GLOBAL CHAOS, BUT HE IS TRYING TO KEEP THE CHURCH, THE BELIEVERS, FROM BRINGING THE LIGHT INTO THIS DARKNESS. SO WE ASK FIRST THAT BELIEVERS WOULD START PRAYING. ONCE WE START PRAYING, WE HAVE HEART SURGERY. WE HAVE A CHANGE AND GOD STARTS TO DO THINGS IN OUR MIND AND HEARTS FOR THE BELIEVERS OUT THERE, AND FOR THOSE WHO ARE EVEN UNSAVED. >> Reporter: TOM, BILL O'REILLY HAS "KILLING KENNEDY," AND YOU HAVE "KILLING CHRISTIANS." THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WRITING THAT BOOK AND THANKS FOR JOINING US. >> THANK YOU, GARY. >> George: TOM DOYLE HAD MUCH MORE TO SAY ABOUT THE STATE OF CHRISTIANS IN SYRIA AND IRAQ. YOU CAN SEE THE FULL INTERVIEW AT OUR WEBSITE, CBNNEWS.COM. BY THE WAY, ISIS IS ALSO TRYING TO ERASE BIBLICAL HISTORY IN IRAQ. A NEW VIDEO SHOWS ISLAMIC STATE MILITANTS DESTROYING ANCIENT ARTIFACTS IN THE CITY OF MOSUL. IT SHOWS MILITANTS USING DRILLS AND SLEDGEHAMMERS TO SMASH SEVERAL STATUES AND TABLETS. MOSUL IS SET ON ANCIENT NINEVEH, THE BURIAL PLACE OF THE PROPHET JONAH. THE ARMED MEN ARE DEMANDING A RANSOM OF NEARLY $300,000. PHYLLIS SORTER WAS ABDUCTED. THE METHOD CHURCH SAYS THE STATE DEPARTMENT AND THE F.B.I. ARE WORKING WITH NIGERIAN AUTHORITIES TO FIND HER. FAMILY AND FRIENDS SAY SORTER UNDERSTOOD THE RISKS OF WORKING IN A COUNTRY KNOWN FOR ISLAMIC TERRORISM. >>> THE RADICAL ISLAMIC GROUP BOKO HARAM IS WAGING A HOLY WAR IN AFRICA, IN PLACES LIKE NIGERIA, AND LIKE ISIS IN THE MIDDLE EAST, THEY'RE TRYING TO ESTABLISH THEIR OWN CALIPHATE, A MODERN ISLAMIC STATE. >> IN THE DUSTY CITIES OF COUNTRIES IN WEST AFRICA, THERE IS GROWING ANXIETY OVER THE SPIRITUAL AND TERRITORIAL AMBITIONS OF THE RADICAL ISLAMIC GROUP BOKO HARAM. >> FOR YEARS BOKO HARAM FOCUSED ON NIGERIA. BUT NOW THEY ARE CREATING CHAOS ACROSS THE REGION. WE NEED TO FIND A WAY TO GET RID OF THEM BEFORE IT GETS WORSE. >> George: BOKO HARAM IS TRYING TO CREATE WHAT IS CALLED A CALIPHATE ACROSS WEST AFRICA, SIMILAR TO WHAT THE ISLAMIC STATE IN SYRIA IS TRYING TO DO. TODAY THE VIOLENCE IN NIGERIA IS SPILLING ACROSS THE BORDERS INTO CAMEROON, CHAD, AND NIGER. THOSE FOUR COUNTRIES, PLUS BENET, HAVE FORMED A MILITARY FORCE. IN RECENT DAYS THEY HAVE KILLED HUNDREDS OF ISLAMIC FIGHTERS AND RECAPTURED SEVERAL TOWNS. STILL, IN PLACES LIKE THIS TOWN, WHERE PEOPLE HAVE PLANTED SEVERAL CHURCHES, THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE, INCLUDING CHRISTIANS, AND STILL FLEEING THE MILITANTS' REIGN OF TERROR. >> MANY HAVE HAD TO LEAVE. IT IS A SERIOUS SITUATION. RIGHT NOW, AS WE SPEAK, THERE ARE PEOPLE ON THE ROAD, TRYING TO GET AWAY FROM BOKO HARAM. >> George: BOKO HARAM STARTED IN 2002. THEIR GOAL: TURN NIGERIA, AFRICA'S TOP OIL PRODUCER AND BIGGEST ECONOMY, INTO AN ISLAMIC STATE RULED BY SHAR'IA LAW. >> BOKO HARAM IS A JIHADIST MOVEMENT, THAT HAS THE SAME IDEOLOGY AS ALL OF THE OTHERS, AS al-QAEDA, THE TALIBAN, AS AL-SHABAAB. THEY WANT TO ESTABLISH AN EMIRATE, AN ISLAMIC RADICAL STATE, FIRST IN THE NORTHERN PART OF NIGERIA, AND THEN PUSH TO THE SOUTH AND DECLARE AN EMIRATE ACROSS NIGERIA. >> George: SINCE THEN THEIR FIGHTERS HAVE KILLED THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE. IN 2014, BOKO HARAM REPORTEDLY MURDERED MORE THAN 2400 CHRISTIANS. >> THESE ARE RUTHLESS PEOPLE WHO DON'T HAVE ANY RESPECT FOR RELIGION, CHRISTIAN OR MUSLIM. THEY ARE EVIL. >> George: SOME INTELLIGENCE OFFICIALS WORRY THE GROUP COULD NOT ONLY EXPAND THEIR ATTACKS BEYOND THIS REGION, THEY COULD BECOME THE ISIS OF AFRICA. BOKO HARAM HAS REPEATEDLY PRAISED ISIS AS AN APOCALYPTIC IDEOLOGY, BUT U.S. OFFICIALS FEAR A POSSIBLE TACTICAL AND OPERATIONAL ALLIANCE BETWEEN THE TWO GROUPS AS WELL. IF THAT HAPPENS, IT COULD GIVE RADICAL ISLAM AN EVEN BIGGER AND GROWING FOOTHOLD IN BOTH THE MIDDLE EAST AND AFRICA. >> George: AND THAT IS ONE THING MOST FOLKS ARE VERY, VERY CONCERNED ABOUT. PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY, NOT JUST FOR THE CHRISTIANS IN THE MIDDLE EAST, BUT ALSO FOR CHRISTIANS IN NIGERIA AND IN NEIGHBORING COUNTRIES. >>> OKAY, SO, COMING UP, THE DANGERS OF STANDING UP FOR THE JEWISH STATE. WHY THESE CHRISTIANS BELIEVE THEIR LOVE FOR ISRAEL WILL BRING PERSECUTION. >> George: AND WELCOME BACK TO CHRISTIAN WORLD NEWS. MORE THAN HALF OF JEWISH STUDENTS IN U.S. COLLEGES REPORT THEY HAVE SEEN INCIDENTS OF ANTI-SEMITISM ON THEIR CAMPUSES. THAT'S THE FINDING OF A SURVEY JUST RELEASED BY TRINITY COLLEGE AND THE BRANDIS CENTER. THE SURVEY SHOWS THE TREND IS NATIONWIDE WITH ANTI-SEMITISM ON CAMPUS REPORTED IN EVERY REGION OF THE COUNTRY. JEWISH MEN HAVE TRADITIONALLY BEEN THE CHIEF TARGETS OF HATE, BUT IT IS WOMEN WHO FEEL MORE VULNERABLE NOW, WITH NEARLY 60% SAYING THEY'VE WITNESSED OR EXPERIENCED ANTI-SEMITISM. >>> AT A WASHINGTON CONFERENCE ON EXTREMISM LAST WEEK, PRESIDENT OBAMA CLAIMED THE WORLD'S TERROR THREATS WERE NOT ROOTED IN ISLAM. BUT AT ANOTHER CONFERENCE IN COLORADO, CHRISTIANS AND JEWS HEARD A VERY DIFFERENT MESSAGE, TO STAND FIRM IN THE FACE OF GROWING PERSECUTION. JOHN WAGGI HAS MORE. >> John: THE PRESIDENT SEES THE TERRORIST THREAT AS A LAW ENFORCEMENT PROBLEM, A BATTLE WITH DIFFICULT ROGUES OF ALL FAITHS, NOT A CIVILIZATION OF WAR. >> President Obama: THE NOTION THAT THE WEST IS AT WAR WITH ISLAM IS AN UGLY LIE. AND ALL OF US, REGARDLESS OF OUR FAITH, HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY TO REJECT IT. >> Reporter: BUT HIS REMARKS COME AS MUCH OF THE GLOBE IS ENGULFED IN A GROWING FLOOD OF HATRED FOR JEWS AND PERSECUTION OF CHRISTIANS, MUCH OF IT COMING FROM THE MUSLIM WORLD. THAT INCLUDES TERROR GROUPS LIKE ISIS, WHO HAVE FOUNDED AN ISLAMIC EMPIRE, AND IRAN, WHO'S LEADERS HAVE PREACHED THE EXTERMINATION OF ISRAEL FOR DECADES. ONE JERUSALEM PASTOR, WAYNE HILTON, SAYS CHRISTIANS AND JEWS MUST PEEK UP AN SPEAK UP AND BRACE FOR OPPOSITION. >> THOSE WHO STAND WITH THE JEWISH IN THEIR TIME OF TROUBLE WILL ALSO BE HATED. WE WILL ALSO BEEN SLANDERED. WE WILL BE LIED AGAINST AND FALSELY ACCUSED. IT JUST GOES WITH THE PACKAGE. >> Reporter: AT A SUMMIT THIS MONTH IN COLORADO, HILTON LAUNCHED A GROUP CALLED "FIRM" THE FELLOWSHIP OF ISRAEL-RELATED MINISTRY. THE GOAL IS FOR BELIEVERS TO LEARN FROM THE BOOK OF DANIEL, TO BE AWARE OF THE TIMES WE'RE IN AND TO TAKE A STAND, NO MATTER WHAT IT COSTS, AND TO DO IT IN LOVE. >> THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST INTIMIDATING TIMES IN HISTORY. WHEN ATTACKS OF THE ENEMY CAN SPREAD LIKE WILDFIRE. AROUND THE WORLD. AND NEVER BE ERADICATED. AND WHEN WE ARE ATTACKED, WE WILL BE ATTEMPTED TO ATTACK OUR ACCUSERS IN RETURN. BUT WHEN WE STAND FIRM, LET US BE LIKE DANIEL AND NOT RETURN EVIL FOR EVIL. LET'S LOVE OUR ENEMIES. >> Reporter: MESSIANIC JEWISH LEADER JONATHAN BURNA SAYS FUNDAMENTAL ISLAM IS THE CARRIER OF THE NEW ANTI-SEMITISM, AND CHRISTIANS WON'T BE SPARED IN THE SPIRITUAL BATTLE THAT IS UPON US. >> I THINK THAT THE ANSWER FOR THE MUSLIM WORLD IS THE SAME AS THE ANSWER FOR THE JEWISH WORLD, AND HIS NAME IS USHUAIA, JESUS. >> Reporter: THE LEADERS SAY THERE IS A SPECIAL CALLING FOR YOUNG PEOPLE, WHO RESPOND BETTER TO THE SUPPORT OF ISRAEL AND THE JEWS WHEN THEY UNDERSTAND THE CHARACTER OF GOD'S NAME IS AT STAKE. >> BECAUSE GOD'S COVENANT ENDURES FOREVER. BECAUSE HE IS A FAITHFUL GOD. BECAUSE THE CALLING AND THE GIFTS OF GOD ARE IRREVOCABLE. THAT'S WHY WE STAND WITH ISRAEL. >> Reporter: JOHN WAGGI, CBN NEWS. >> George: UP NEXT, THE DOCUMENTARY THAT IS BEING CALLED A GAME-CHANGER. CHECK OUT THE EVIDENCE FOR EXODUS RIGHT AFTER THIS. >> George: MORE THAN A DECADE AGO, A MOVIE-MAKER STARTED INVESTIGATING ONE OF THE BIBLE'S MOST FAMOUS STORIES, THE EXODUS FROM EGYPT. WELL, HIS JOURNEY LED TO BOTH A CRISIS OF FAITH AND AN AWARD-WINNING DOCUMENTARY. CHRIS MITCHELL BRINGS US THAT STORY FROM JERICHO. >> Reporter: THIS IS FROM THE FILM "PATTERNS OF EVIDENCE, THE EXODUS." ACCORDING TO THE BOOK OF EXODUS, MOSES LED THE CHILDREN OUT OF EGYPT IN INTO THE WILDERNESS FOR YEARS. HE LED THEM OVER HERE, NEAR JERICHO, INTO THE PROMISED LAND. SOME SAY IT IS JUST A FABLE, BUT OTHERS SAY THIS NEW DOCUMENTARY PROVIDES EVIDENCE THAT DEMANDS A VERDICT. >> I ACTUALLY WENT TO THE LOCATION WHERE THE EVENTS WERE SUPPOSED TO HAD BEEN IN GOSHAN, IN THE EASTERN DELTA, AND I WENT TO THE ARCHEOLOGICAL SITES. AND THAT'S WHEN I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE FOR THE EXODUS. >> Reporter: THE FILM-MAKER'S RESEARCH INTO THE EXODUS AND THE ODYSSEY THAT FOLLOWED PRODUCED STARTLING RESULTSMENT. > RESULTS. >> SIX STEPS AND WE MATCHED ALL OF THE STEPS. >> Reporter: THE FILM PROPOSES WHEN YOU GET THE TIMING RIGHT, ARCHEOLOGY MATCHES HISTORY. >> THE WHOLE THING, FROM THE BEGINNING, THE SLAVERY, THE PROMISED LAND, IT'S ALL THERE IN ONE NICE, NEAT LINE. BUT IT IS TUA TOO EARLY. >> WHEN YOU PUT THOSE THINGS SIDE BY SIDE, THE BIBLICAL ACCOUNT AND THE ARCHEOLOGY MATCH EXTREMELY WELL. >> THERE IS THIS IDEA THAT RAMSES IS THE EXODUS. THAT HAPPENS IN A PARTICULAR TIME IN HISTORY. WHEN EVERYONE LOOKS AT THAT PARTICULAR TIME, THEY ARE CORRECT THERE IS NO EVIDENCE FOR THE EXODUS. BUT OTHER ARCHEOLOGISTS WERE SAYING, WAIT A MINUTE, THERE ARE EVIDENCES THAT ARE EARLIER THAN RAMSES THAT MATCH THIS STORY. >> Reporter: MAHONEY PRESENTS BOTH SIDES OF THE ARCHEOLOGICAL ARGUMENT, DID THE EXODUS REALLY HAPPEN? >> I HATE TO DISAPPOINT PEOPLE, BUT WE HAVE NO EVIDENCE OF A SINGLE MASS MIGRATION OF PEOPLE FROM ONE COUNTRY COMING INTO ANOTHER COUNTRY. >> I DON'T BELIEVE THERE WAS A SINGLE EVENT WE CAN CALL THE EXODUS. >> THEY CAN'T HAVE SEEN ALL OF THIS. >> I'M VERY MUCH AGAINST CHRONOLOGICAL REVISION. >> >> THE EXODUS DID NOT HAPPEN IN THE WAY IT HAS BEEN DESCRIBED. >> THE FILM IS VERY, VERY CONVINCING BECAUSE WE GET BOTH SIDES OF IT. WE LET YOU HEAR FROM ARCHEOLOGISTS WHO SAY THERE IS NO EVIDENCE AND WHY, AND THEN WE LET YOU HEAR FROM ARCHEOLOGISTS WHO SAY THERE IS. >> Reporter: USING STATE OF THE ART ANIMATION, AND GROUNDBREAKING ARCHEOLOGY, IT HAS ALREADY MADE A PROFOUND IMPACT. >> WE WOULD SHOW THESE FILMS TO PEOPLE WHO HAD NO UNDERSTANDING OR INTEREST IN THE STORY. EVEN ATHEISTS SAW IT. AND WHAT THEY SAID WAS, WOW, I LOVE THIS FILM. ONE ATHEIST WROTE, I GUESS YOU DO PROVE THIS EVENT MIGHT HAVE HAPPENED, BUT IT DOESN'T MEAN THERE WERE ANY MIRACLES. >> ISRAEL. >> Reporter: MAHONEY SAYS IT IS A POWERFUL TOOL TO REACH THE EXCEPT TIC. > SKEPTIC. >> IF YOU HAVE FAMILY MEMBERS THAT DON'T BELIEVE IN GOD OR YOU HAVE PEOPLE WHO ARE SUSPICIOUS OR WANT A SCIENTIFIC APPROACH, THIS FILM GIVES US THAT KIND OF OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE THOSE KINDS OF OPPORTUNITIES. IT IS ONE OF THE MOST NEUTRAL AND MOST INTRIGUING TYPES OF FILMS THAT ALLOW YOU TO HAVE THAT OPPORTUNITY. >> Reporter: THE FILM CHALLENGES A POWERFUL NOTION THAT THE BIBLE ISN'T TRUE. >> FOR THE LAST 50, 60, 70 YEARS, PEOPLE HAVE BEEN VERY CRITICAL OF THE BIBLE. IF THE STORY OF THE EXODUS ISN'T TRUE, THEN WHAT JESUS CHRIST SAID AND THE APOSTLES ABOUT NOSES AND TH MOSES AND THE EXODUS, THEN THOSE STATEMENTS ARE FALSE. THE WHOLE BIBLE HAS A FOUNDATION IN THE STORY OF EXODUS. WHAT THIS FILM DOES IS SHOWS WHERE THE PATTERN OF EVIDENCE IS, AND THAT, I THINK, HAS NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE. >> Reporter: CHRIS MITCHELL, CBN NEWS, JERICHO. >> George: AND WELCOME BACK TO THE BROADCAST. AN AMERICAN MISSIONARY WHO CONTRACTED EBOLA IN LIBERIA HAS RECOVERED. NOW SHE IS HEADING BACK TO THE WEST AFRICAN NATION. NANCY WHITEY AND HER HUSBAND SAID THEY FELL LED TO RETURN AND DO ALL THEY CAN TO BE THE HANDS AND FEET OF JESUS. THE WRITBOLS WORK WITH S.I.M., INTERNATIONAL MISSION ORGANIZATION. NANCY CONTRACTED EBOLA LAST SUMMER HELPING DOCTORS DISINFECT MEDICAL EQUIPMENT. >>> FINALLY ON THE BROADCAST THIS WEEK, THE WATOTO CHILDREN'S CHOIR OUT OF UGANDA HAS A MISSION TO HELP AND SUPPORT THE ESTIMATED 50 MILLION ORPHANS ACROSS AFRICA. THEY SAY SINGING IS ONLY PART OF THEIR PURPOSE. CHARLENE AARON RECENTLY CAUGHT UP WITH THE AMAZING CHOIR IN NORFOLK, VIRGINIA. >> Reporter: THE SONGS OF AFRICA RANG OUT ACROSS NORFOLK, VIRGINIA. BRIGHTLY CLAD MEMBERS OF THE CHOIR, ALL ORPHANS, SANG SONGS OF PRAISE AND DANCED WHILE SHARING PERSONAL STORIES OF THEIR LIFE IN UGANDA. POVERTY, AIDS, AND WAR HAVE TAKEN A TOLL ON THESE LITTLE LIVES. THE CHOIR GOT ITS START IN 1994, AND SINCE THEN IT HAS TRAVELLED ALL OVER THE WORLD, TO RAISE AWARENESS ABOUT THE PLIGHT OF AFRICA'S ORPHANS. EACH CHILD IN THE CHOIR HAS LOST ONE OR BOTH PARENTS OR HAS BEEN ABANDONED. >> ALL OF THE CHILDREN HAVE SUFFERED THE PAIN OF LOSS, THE PAIN OF BEING REJECTED AND ABANDONED, OR THE PAIN OF LOSING THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT MEANT EVERYTHING, MOM AND DAD. >> Reporter: TEAM LEADER EDWIN SMITH SAYS WATOTO'S IMPACT ON ITS MEMBERS IS LIFE-CHANGING, SOMETHING HE HAS EXPERIENCED FIRSTHAND BECAUSE HE, FEW, GREW UP SINGING WITH THE CHOIR. >> IT WAS WHEN I WAS IN THE CHOIR THAT I REALIZED I COULD BECOME ANYBODY IN THE WORLD. THAT WAS WHEN MY DREAM LOOKED VERY BRIGHT, LIKE I COULD DREAM AND I COULD TELL YOU THAT TODAY I'M ACTUALLY LIVING THE DREAM THAT I HAD BACK THEN, WHEN I WAS IN THE CHOIR. SO IT'S A VERY MIND-OPENING PLATFORM FOR THE CHILDREN. >> Reporter: WATOTO MEANS CHILD IN SWAHILI, AND IT TAKES A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO HELPING AFRICA'S MOST VULNERABLE CHILDREN. THEY LIVE IN A VILLAGE WITH A HOME, A NEW FAMILY, AND FREE EDUCATION. BUT MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL, THEY LEARN ABOUT THE LOVE OF JESUS CHRIST. 9-YEAR-OLD ALAN TOLD US WHAT LIFE WAS LIKE BEFORE WATOTO TOOK HIM IN. >> IT WAS MUD AND I WAS SAD. >> WHY WAS IT SAD? >> BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE ANYWHERE TO SLEEP. >> Reporter: THE CHILDREN HAVE ALL LEARNED THAT GOD HAS A GOOD PLAN FOR THEIR LIVES, SOMETHING THEY WANT TO SHARE WITH OTHERS AROUND THE GLOBE AND BACK HOME. >> THEY LOVE IT WHEN WE SING AND DANCE, AND PEOPLE'S LIVES GET CHANGED. >> I WANT TO LIVE IN UGANDA SO I CAN ALSO CHANGE THAT COUNTRY AND IT BECOMES A GOOD COUNTRY. >> Reporter: THEIR SONGS HIGHLIGHT THE HOPE OF A FUTURE, FILLED WITH JOY AND NEW PURPOSE. >> WHEN YOU SEE THESE CHILDREN, THEY'RE NO LONGER SAD. THEY COME FROM A SAD PAST, BUT THEY ARE NOT SAD ANYMORE BECAUSE WHEN GOD IS IN IT, IT IS NOT OVER. >> Reporter: CHARLENE AARON, CBN NEWS. >> George: A GREAT WAY TO END THE BROADCAST. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING US THIS WEEK. UNTIL NEXT WEEK, GOOD-BYE AND GOD BLESS YOU. -------------------------- -"NEWSWATCH" AND PROMOS, FEBRUARY 27, 2015.
