Dear friends, Nowroz, also known as Nowruz, is the first day of spring and the beginning of the New Year in Afghanistan, Iran, and Tajikistan. It is a time of joy and hope, but also marked with grief. Please Watch this Short Nowroz Greeting from Samir! As war affects both Afghanistan and Iran right now, we continue to stand on the hope of the Gospel, the true Nowroz, that one day He “will make wars cease to the ends of the world” (Psalm 46:9) and that a new day is coming where all things will...

Samir joined a rare public Afghan debate on morality and ethics, engaging voices from atheism and secular Islam with a Christian vision grounded in human dignity, love of neighbour, and eternal justice. More than 900 watched live as faith and reason met in respectful dialogue.

This song reflects on the advent of Jesus as the true Light who enters a darkened world and transforms night into day. It weaves together themes of incarnation, divine promise, freedom, and hope. Every line points to the joy of Christ's birth and the way all creation responds to His coming.
