Religious Leaders Watching the Mid East Conflict Closely

The pastor of one of the largest churches in Bend is watching the crisis in the Middle East.  Ken Johnson with Westside Church says Christians do face persecution in the Middle East and a radical change in Egypt could have an impact on Christians living in that region: "There's more freedom of religion in Egypt compared to other Middle East countries; still it’s been in the news of different churches being burned and people being attacked, so there is some persecution. And it'll be very interesting to watch the different players of this uprising in Egypt to see who ends up at the helm after the dust settles on this whole thing." Ken and Linda Johnson were guests Monday on KBND's “Your Town.”
