This is an amazing interaction where a brother in Saudi Arabia has chosen to follow Jesus over Islam. More and more stories are beginning to come out of Saudi Arabia where muslims there are converting to Christianity. This video makes me wonder how many more muslims in Saudi Arabia are closet Christians out of fear of the religious police.

RIYADH, SAUDI ARABIA (Worthy News) -- A young Internet writer in Saudi Arabia was in life danger Wednesday, January 28, after he was detained by authorities for announcing on his blog that he converted from Islam to Christianity, religious human rights investigators said.
The Arabic Network for Human Rights Information (ANHRI) said Hamoud Bin Saleh was arrested January 13 and officials blocked access to his Website ( http://christforsaudi.blogspot.com/ ) due to his opinions and announcement that he had become a Christian.
The 28-year-old graduate in English literature from the Al Yarmouk University in Jordan, was moved to "the infamous Eleisha political prison" in the capital Riyadh, a facility where several other dissidents have been jailed in recent years, ANHRI said in a statement.
His detention came five months after the daughter of a member of the feared he religious police or Commission for Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice was reportedly killed for disclosing her Christian faith.
