Iran’s Great Awakening

ONE MILLION MUSLIMS TO CHRIST

In the mid-1980s, Dr. Hormoz Shariat and his wife prayed, “Lord, use us to save Iran!” His passion to bless Muslims stems, in part, due to the murder of his brother Hamraz, who was arrested in Iran at the age of 16 on a minor political charge. After two years in jail, the teen was executed by a firing squad. God showed Dr. Shariat that the best way to respond to this tragedy is to dedicate his life to bringing one million Muslims to salvation in Christ.



In his book, Iran’s Great Awakening, Dr. Shariat takes readers on a journey out of bondage to freedom in Christ. Learn what the Bible says about Iran and why this Middle Eastern country is right at the cusp of something big, eternal, and of a great historical proportion — something that is already unfolding! God impressed on his heart, “I am going to do a great work in Iran and change that nation forever, and I am giving you the honour to be a part of it.”

Iran is known to be one of the most dangerous countries in the world for Christians, yet hundreds of underground churches have been planted in the Muslim-majority nation over the past two decades. Since 2020 alone, more than 14,000 decisions for Christ were documented. Dr. Hormoz Shariat has been given a front-row seat to the spiritual awakening taking place in Iran, which is considered the fastest-growing evangelical population globally.
