Terence Ascott 
Dare to Believe! 
Stories of Faith from the Middle East

Dare to Believe! is the breathtaking story of someone who has followed Jesus’ lead through civil wars and unrest, arrests and deportation, as he sought to effectively use media in support of the life, work, and witness of the church in the Middle East and North Africa. The book journeys from the publication of a Christian newsstand magazine for the Arab world to the birth of the region’s first Christian satellite and online television services–attracting millions of viewers from all faith backgrounds and ages, unlike Christian television as we may have seen it in the West.
Readers will discover and be encouraged by dynamic and courageous Christian communities in the Arab world, Iran, and Turkey–some of whom date the founding of their churches back to the first century–and how God provides for his children and his ministry, even through difficult times.
