About

News from the Middle East finds us wherever we live in today's world. Children often wonder about this far-removed land, while parents struggle to teach their children about Islam. Tales of Persia is a timely book of missionary stories that will teach readers about Islam and encourage a new generation of Christians to spread the gospel.

This book is especially useful for family devotions and Sunday school classes. It includes seven beautifully detailed full-page illustrations.

Endorsements

"Tales of Persia is a gem that I want my grandchildren to read. Much that we hear about Iran is frightening. Here we learn about another side—children, moms and dads, shepherds, sick people—and missionaries who take risks to bring healing and news about Jesus to Iranian people. The contagious love of God for Iranians shines through on every page."

—Roger Greenway, editor of Samuel Zwemer's Islam and the Cross

"A great book by a great missionary. I recommend it very highly as a book to be used to encourage a new generation of Christians to do gospel missions among Muslims."

—Anees Zaka, coauthor of The Truth about Islam

"From the time of David and Esther, light has shined out of Persia. Today more Persians are glowing with the radiance of Jesus. Some are martyred. Their testimonies are an axis of hope. This wonderful heritage shimmers through the stories in this book."

—Miriam Adeney, author of Daughters of Islam
