What brought a radical Muslim to Christ?
His dark, deep-set eyes and chiseled chin fit the stereotype of a middle-eastern political leader. His broken English resounds with the halting grammar of one who is foreign to the soil he now calls home.
He knows danger and has paid the price of power. His body language reveals shadows of suspicion and readiness for unflinching response to any threat.
However, there is an unexpected incongruity. His handshake is a greeting. Joy-filled eyes join an ever-widening smile. Most amazing of all is his story; one that few have lived to tell. As a former radical Muslim who was heavily involved in the Iranian fundamentalist revolution, Daniel Shayesteh was once committed to exterminating Jews, Christians, and other “infidels.”
That was before his Creator became his redeemer. His heart transformed by the love of Christ, Daniel is now a born-again Christian who is committed to helping others understand and properly respond to the Islamic faith. He reveals the inconsistencies and alarming directives of Islam’s holy book and its associated worldview.
There is much more that Christians need to know.
