In this enlightening study Mark Bradley looks at the growing
underground church in Iran. Given the hostility of the regime, it
is often assumed that Christianity is withering in Iran, but in
fact more Iranian Muslims have become Christians in the last 25
years than since the seventh century, when Islam first came to
Iran.
Beginning with an in-depth look at the historical identity of
Iran, religiously, culturally and politically, Bradley shows how
this identity makes Iranians inclined towards Christianity. He goes
on to look at the impact of the 1979 revolution, an event which has
brought war, economic chaos and totalitarianism to Iran, and its
implications for Iranian faith. The study concludes with an
analysis of church growth since 1979 and an examination of the
emerging underground church.
This is a fascinating work, guaranteed to improve any reader's
knowledge of not only Iranian faith and church growth, but of
Iranian culture and history as a whole thanks to the thorough
treatment given to the country's background.
