Summary

SummaryI’m Sahar, a mother of two from Iran who chose Christ over everything elseβ€”my husband, my children, my freedom. 😒 When I first fled in secret, I cried for my four-year-old son, wondering who would keep him warm at night. Despite the threat of divorce and losing my children forever, I held onto God’s promise. Soon, agents of the Islamic Republic Intelligence Services arrested me, and I faced a 91-day sentence that the appeal court extended to five years! βš–οΈ Yet God had a bigger plan: He led me out of prison to safety in Turkey. πŸ‡ΉπŸ‡· There, Open Doors Partners trained me to minister to other women experiencing persecution. Through my brokenness and trauma, I now serve, telling them, β€˜God loves you, and He has your back!’ πŸ™Œ


When Sahar became a Christian, she lost everything – her husband, her children and her freedom. But she never let go of God, and now she lives in Turkey, ministering to women who are going through similar situations for their faith.
