IRAN

For the first time, 24-hour Persian Christian radio is available anywhere in the world. The new Persian-language website Radio Mojdeh (Mojdeh means Ì¢‰âÒgood newsÌ¢‰âÂå in Persian) and a 24-hour Internet radio service have recently been launched. The website, www.radiomojdeh.com, includes Christian music and teaching for both Muslim and Christian believers, the entire Persian Bible online, testimonies, Bible exposition and intensive discipleship training. This technology is vital because the number of Internet users in Iran jumped by ninety percent in the past year alone. Seven million of the sixty-five million people in Iran currently use the Internet. This number is expected to jump to twenty million next year.
