From the fall of 2012 through 2015, imprisoned Iranian-American Pastor Saeed Abedini and his wife, Naghmeh, were the public face of persecuted Christians. As part of a global #SaveSaeed campaign, millions of dollars were raised, and Saeed was freed from prison in January 2016.
Yet when Naghmeh revealed that she’d been abused by her husband, she went from being the darling of the Christian community to an outcast. And she says prominent figures Franklin Graham and Jay Sekulow, who had long supported her, began pressuring Naghmeh to make the accusations go away.
In this eye-opening part one of a two-part podcast, Naghmeh tells how Pastor Saeed, trained by Hezbollah, nearly beat her to death. She also reveals how Saeed consistently abused her emotionally and spiritually-even from an Iranian prison.
Naghmeh also tells how Christian leaders backed her when her story was garnering publicity and building their platforms. But as you'll hear, when her truth-telling destroyed Saeed’s heroic image and #SaveSaeed’s fund-raising potential, those leaders’ disposition towards her changed dramatically.
