Mohamad Amin Faridi was born and raised in a devout Muslim family in Iran. After years of faithfully following the Muslim faith, his goal ultimately became to be a martyr in Jihad. This all changed after a divine encounter with Jesus Christ in Iran. He made Jesus his Lord and Savior and started sharing the Gospel with fellow Iranians. As a result, he faced persecution and had to flee the country for his life. In 2012, he took refuge in America. Mohamad Amin is an effective communicator of his salvation testimony and uses it along with his knowledge of Islam to teach Christians how to fulfill the Great Commission among Muslims and unreached people groups.

He has been interviewed by many Christian Television Networks, such as Daystar, CTN, CBN, 700 Club, and has spoken in various Churches and mission organizations across the US. He is the President of Iranian Christians International, which focuses on training and equipping Muslim background believers to reach the most unreached people groups among Muslims in the Middle East. He is the author of Forsaking My Father’s Religion.
 

Mohamad Amin is an ordained minister and a graduate of Charis Bible College. He and his wife, Susan, have been married for twelve years.
