Summary
Dr. Mike Ansari is the President of Heart 4 Iran, which partners with multiple Christian ministries to reach Iranian people with the gospel of Jesus Christ. He'll explain what the inauguration of Ebrahim Raisi as the new president of Iran means for persecuted Christians and religious freedom.
One of the greatest needs of the church in Iran is Bibles. Mike will tell how VOM is helping meet that need—and thank our listeners for giving to deliver Bibles into Iran. He'll also talk about the benefits of delivering Bibles in digital form—which are much easier to hide and also to share with friends.
You'll learn about the need to train leaders for Iran's growing church—and how Heart 4 Iran is encouraging new believers to share Christ and even plant their own house churches.
Finally, Dr. Mike will equip us to pray for the nation of Iran and our Christian family members there.
