Witness to the Light - John 1:1-9 - David Yeghnazar, Elam Ministries
Description
This excerpt from a sermon delivered at ColonialKC Church details the history and current work of Elam Ministries, which was co-founded in 1990 to spread Christianity in Iran. The speaker recounts how the ministry grew from a small prayer meeting in 1955, spurred by the Islamic Revolution in 1979 which forced missionaries out of Iran. Despite facing pain and persecution, the ministry focuses on training Iranian leaders, translating and distributing scriptures, and planting house churches, resulting in one of the world's fastest-growing Christian populations—from an estimated 500 Christians of Muslim background in 1979 to over a million today. The message centers on bearing witness to the light of Jesus Christ, which involves sharing a personal encounter with Christ, suffering for one's faith, and being visibly transformed by that faith, illustrating this transformation through several personal testimonies.
