Episodes Notes

With the recent news of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps opening fire on schoolgirls and the harrowing video of a teen singing before being gunned down, violence against protesters has served to intensify unrest across the county, with more innocents killed at the hands of the regime.

Dr. Hormoz Shariat, president of Iran Alive Ministries, has lived through this experience. His brother was killed in Iran years ago for a minor political charge, sparking his lifelong mission of advocating for the suppressed families in Iran.

Nowadays, Dr. Shariat has been called “the Billy Graham of Iran” by some and is an authority on advocating for the human rights of women, Christians and other oppressed people throughout Iran.

Today on Connections, Dr. Shariat shares how he came to know Christ. He also shares his personal view on the growing turmoil in Iran and how he is using his ministry to bring others to Jesus.
