Underground Christian Revival Grows in Iran

Iran’s restricted Christianity sees a surprising shift. A 2020 GAMAAN survey shows over 1.5% (1 million+) Iranians identify as Christian, despite a tiny official minority. Missionary groups confirm a fast-growing underground church. No Western influence, just secret house churches led by ex-Muslims, often women, fueled by Jesus dreams where evangelism is banned. Despite persecution, revival grows in this closed nation.
