As we kickstart the podcast back into a new season, this first episode features a conversation with Magda, an Iranian woman who works in ministry to Persian-speaking women.
From all the stories we’ve shared on this podcast, we know that persecution is a very real threat for Christians inside Iran, but we can mistakenly think that that only means the threat of prison and arrest. Today, we’ll hear how Magda, who’s never been arrested or imprisoned for her faith, had a life-changing experience with persecution, ultimately leading her to make an unimaginably heartbreaking decision.
One note: This episode does touch on domestic abuse as well as detailing a difficult decision involving a child. So, you may want to listen without children nearby.
