Iranian Christian Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani has been charged, convicted and sentenced to death for apostasy (becoming a Christian.) When Iranian officials demanded that he recant his faith in Jesus Christ or die, he responded, “I cannot.” He has been illegally imprisoned and separated from his wife and two boys since 2009. This man exemplifies a true Christian who is willing to sacrifice everything in this life on earth for his faith the question I ask today is how strong is your faith and would you be willing to do the same?

We must take a stand for what we believe and not shy away from things when they become hard and challenging. No one should be proscuted for what they believe and stripped away from their family this is a major injustice that deserves every bit of attention that it’s receiving. And we all can learn a thing or two from this story and this man I ask that you pray for his family as well as his strength during this time
