Can you find Azerbaijan on a map? It’s east of Turkey and north-west of Iran, or the Internet will show you.

It’s a small country with more than ninety-nine percent Muslim and the remainder are Armenians who identify as Christians, so Christians are a tiny minority in the general population.

We might expect stress and fear among that Christian minority, but some of them have a reason to be happy. They show that happiness or joy comes from God, and not from the surrounding circumstances.

We should learn from them.
