One of the most remarkable stories in modern Christianity is the explosive growth of the Iranian church. At the end of the 1970s there were a few hundred Christians in Iran; it is now estimated that there are as many as a million. It’s a worldwide pattern too; Britain alone now has several thousand Iranian believers. I believe it’s a work of God, but it has also involved many courageous individuals who have paid the price for their witness. One of the many I could name is Haik Hovsepian.
