Chaos in Iran - and the danger to Christians

Jan 15, 2026

Support Christians in Harm’s Way

Iran is descending into chaos ...

And its citizens are paying with their lives.

Some reports are saying more than 2,400 protesters have recently been killed, while others say that number may be much higher — some 12,000 or more.

Brian Orme, CEO of Global Christian Relief, recently explained:

“Right now, Iran is experiencing widespread instability — protests, economic strain, and an aggressive security response. With internet and cell service shut down, communication in and out of the country is extremely limited. Moments like this are especially dangerous for house churches and secret believers.”

I urge you to support your brothers and sisters in Iran — and elsewhere — with spiritual encouragement, much-needed physical aid, counseling amid political unrest, and more.

“The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed,” Psalm 9:9 says, “a stronghold in times of trouble.” I imagine Iranian Christians are clinging to the promises of this verse right now.

Please give generously today for their sake.

You’ll remind our persecuted family of the stronghold they have in the Lord … and in fellow believers like you.

In His service,

Mat Staver
