Overview

For nearly two millennia, the area that was once the land of ancient Persia (now modern-day Iran) has housed one of the most vivid and long-lasting Christian presences anywhere in the world. In ""History of Christianity in Iran: From the Apostles to the Present"" Archbishop Dr. Edik Baroni has chronicled the incredible journey of Christians in Persia, beginning with the first Persian Magi who traveled to follow the star to Bethlehem, until the present day. Archbishop Baroni, utilizing extensive primary sources as well as drawing upon his own heritage as an Iranian-Armenian bishop, examines the lives of the many different Christian communities, including Armenians, Assyrians, Chaldeans, Catholics, and Protestants who have contributed to the Christian witness in Persia throughout history. This book is written with scholarly care, but also with pastoral sensitivity and reveals how the Gospel became rooted in the very heart of the Persian Empire and continues to inspire faithful Christians today.
