Christian Satellite TV brings many Iranian Muslims to Jesus

The International Antioch Ministries is said to have brought in upwards of 50,000 Iranian Muslims to Jesus Christ since 2002, according to PRWeb. Through 10 hours of programming a week featuring a pastoral show, worship services, and discipleship instruction. Although reaching many overseas Iranians, the television ministry is broadcast within Iran to those who do not dare to profess their faith openly.

International Antioch Ministries is said to have experienced a three-fold increase in the number of callers and emails from Iranians both inside and outside Iran. Although many of these Christians face persecution from friends, imprisonment, and even martyrdom, many are said to be confirmed by the Lord through miracles and visions.

Broadcast in the native Iranian tongue of Farsi, the satellite TV ministry is operated by former Middle Eastern Muslims who wish to express their newly found faith in Jesus Christ.
