SURPRISED BY GOD IN IRAN

We never expected this! My wife and I served as missionaries in Iran in the
1970s. But everything changed when the Islamic Revolution broke out in late
1978. The Shah of Iran was overthrown. A harsh Islamic government took power.
The name of the country changed to the “Islamic Republic of Iran.” Missionary work
stopped as we and other missionaries were forced to leave the country.
Then, in the early 1980s, God began a work in Iran that had never before been seen.
Hungry to know about Jesus, Muslims flocked to the few churches that existed. A growing
number became Christians even though they knew it could cost them their lives.
Today, many Iranians are disillusioned with Islam and open to the Gospel.
