The Spiritual War for Iran Continues
Dear Friends,
Before I say anything else, let me be clear about something: This message is not about politics.
I am not taking a political side in the conflict involving Iran. I am not interested in debating the merits of the war. I am not going to respond to critical messages about the politics of what is going on in Iran.
My focus is on the people of Iran and on our Christian brothers and sisters who are faithfully sharing Jesus there.
Last Sunday I announced a new ministry effort to support the underground church in Iran with the printing and distribution of 50,000 copies of The Real Story of Jesus in comic book form.
Underground church leaders in Iran have specifically asked for copies of The Real Story of Jesus because of its effectiveness in sharing Christ.
I want to thank those who have already responded. Because of your generosity, we are already over halfway to our goal.
For those who did not see that message, let me briefly explain.
An Iranian woman reads her new The Real Story of Jesus storybook sponsored for her last month.
Amid a physical war, there is also a spiritual war for Iran. That is the war we are fighting; the spiritual battle for hearts and souls continues.
Christians in Iran have lived under pressure for decades. It was difficult before the current conflict, and it is dangerous now as well. Yet believers continue, bombings or not, to courageously share the Gospel whenever opportunities arise.
I have already sent the deposit and ordered the paper, and our partners have just finished the Farsi typesetting for the books. We are ready to begin printing as soon as possible.
The first spread of The Real Story of Jesus Comic Book in Farsi.
Our goal is $100,000, which will cover secret printing, secure distribution, and some emergency assistance for Christians who are facing immediate danger.
It works out to about $2 per copy—two dollars to place the story of Jesus into someone’s hands.
We are already over halfway there. With your help, we can finish this and begin printing immediately. We need to raise another $38,437 to start the presses.
Please also pray for the underground church in Iran. Pray that God will protect them, strengthen them, and open many hearts as they share the Gospel.
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Help Iranians Share Jesus with New The Real Story of Jesus Comic Books
Our Iranian partners have a network of over a thousand underground churches, and they are eager to share Jesus with their neighbors who are searching for Truth. Our brand-new The Real Story of Jesus Comic Books will help them easily share the full story of the Gospel with the people they meet every day. We have an ambitious goal of sending 50,000 books as soon as possible. At only $2 per book, your donation could help turn the tide in Iran’s spiritual war!
