RAW Mission
RAW = Radical, Authentic and Worldwide. In this podcast you can hear real-life stories from those taking the Good News across the world to the 2 billion Muslims who have little or no access to the gospel. The interviews present authentic stories of joy and frustration from ordinary followers of Jesus, with a radical calling to abandon the security and comforts of home. Catch hold of God’s worldwide heart as you hear how they obeyed Jesus’s command to go to all nations — beyond Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria — to the ends of the earth. To connect with us head to www.frontiers.org.uk or email matt@frontiers.org.uk “Missionaries are very human folks, just doing what they are asked. Simply a bunch of nobodies trying to exalt Somebody.” (Jim Elliot) *Please note, many of the locations are unspecified and names have sometimes been changed to protect the identity of the interviewees and their communities.

Ep. 34 - Iran: A Woman's Story
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In one of the most strict Islamic societies on earth, where the Ayatollah-led government enforces Sharia law and morality through the infamous Islamic Revolutionary Guard, an unprecedented movement to Christ among ordinary Iranian Muslims has been happening for the last 40 years.
In this episode Matt interviews an Iranian lady called Mariam.
She tells how, through dreams, through the Word of God, through satellite TV and through the people of God, she and several members of her family came to faith in Jesus.
She shares about the remarkable growth of the church in Iran despite the persecution, the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for Iran’s 88 million people and some stories of the years she spent in Turkey sharing the good news with Muslims there.
For more about the persecuted and growing church in Iran, do check out these two films, called Sheep Among Wolves. There are some amazing testimonies of Iranian believers in these films, but some harrowing accounts too of the suffering they have had to endure. https://www.faistudios.org/sheep
