Billy Hallowell sits down with Dr. Hormoz Shariat, founder of Iran Alive Ministries, to discuss the explosive growth of Iran’s underground church, the brutal persecution Christians face, and why many Iranians are turning to Jesus despite enormous risks.

Dr. Shariat shares his remarkable journey from chanting “Death to America” during the 1979 Iranian Revolution to becoming a Christian and leading one of the most influential ministries reaching Iran with the Gospel. He also explains the spiritual and theological forces driving Iran’s regime and why he believes a Christian awakening is underway.
