Welcome to Inside the Epicenter. In this episode, host Joel Rosenberg sits down with Dr. Hormoz Shariat, the founder of Iran Alive Ministries—a man often called the “Billy Graham of Iran.” Together, they unpack the aftermath of the “12 Day War” between Israel and Iran, examining the impact on the Iranian regime, the hopes and fears of the Iranian people, and how recent conflict fuels a spiritual awakening across the country. The conversation examines how Iranians perceive their leadership during a crisis, their unusual attitudes toward Israel and the United States, and the role of the church in a nation yearning for change. Joel and Hormoz also discuss what Bible prophecy—specifically Jeremiah 49 and Ezekiel 38—might reveal about Iran's future and what these tumultuous days mean for believers both inside and outside the country. 00:00 US-Iran Conflict and Church Dynamics03:13 Iran's Satellite Gospel Outreach08:21 Desperate Leadership Amid Collapse12:43 Iranian Uprising Hindered by Fear14:41 Fear Prevents Uprising in Iran18:16 Herzog and Netanyahu's Divergent Views23:33 Faith Flourishes Amid Iranian Struggles27:07 Iran's Role in End-Times Prophecy31:06 Journey from Israel Amidst War32:21 Surreal Gulf Journey and Appeal35:49 Democracy Challenges for Iranians41:11 "Israel Ascendant: Regional Superpower?"44:10 NATO Tensions and Middle East Conflict47:00 Iran's Spiritual Shift Amid Instability50:14 "Support and Pray for Iran" Bible Verse Jeremiah 49, focusing on verses 37–38:“So I will shatter Elam before their enemies and before those who seek their lives, and I will bring calamity upon them, even my fierce anger, declares the Lord, and I will send out the sword after them until I have consumed them.
