Iran’s Great Awakening: Leaving Islam, Finding Jesus
Mon Jan 12 2026
What is really happening inside Iran right now? As protests erupt across the nation and fear begins to loosen its grip, something far deeper is unfolding beneath the headlines—a historic spiritual awakening. In this powerful conversation, Hormoz Shariat, President and Founder of Iran Alive Ministries (often called the Billy Graham of Iran), reveals why millions of Iranians are rejecting Islam, losing fear of the regime, and turning to Jesus in unprecedented numbers.
Born and raised Muslim in Iran, Hormoz shares firsthand insight into:
Why this uprising is different from past protests How Islam is being openly rejected across Iranian society
The explosive growth of the underground Christian church
Why young Iranians are embracing hope, freedom, and faith Prophetic scriptures pointing to Iran’s future Miraculous stories of dreams, visions, and lives transformed
How Christians inside Iran are responding with courage, prayer, and action
From Qur’ans discarded in the streets to secret house churches worshiping in silence, this episode offers a rare and sobering look at a nation at a spiritual and political crossroads—and the extraordinary ways God is moving behind closed doors.
