IRAN — Magazine in Elevator Restores Man’s Faith
Chrisitan literature is a powerful witnessing tool in Iran.
Farid placed his trust in Christ six years ago, but with no church to attend, he had not been growing in his faith.
While riding in an elevator, a Christian woman gave him a magazine and said, “This is a gift for you.” Farid was startled and wondered if it was a special kind of advertising campaign. But after the woman left, he read it. “I came upon a page that really touched my heart,” he said. “On that page, they interviewed believers who shared their stories of faith. One was a story was about believers who, like me, had given their hearts to Jesus but then forgot that they even were Christian.” Another story discussed a worship song that Farid remembered from a Christian satellite TV channel years earlier. “Right then I was encouraged to renew my forgotten faith with God,” he said. “The magazine reminded me that even if we forget God, he will never forget us.”
