Summary of Bodie Thoene & Samaa Habib's Face to Face with Jesus
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was 19 years old when I woke up that fall morning in the capital city of my Middle Eastern country. I was happy that it was Sunday, my favorite day of the week. I was going to church. My family had converted to Christianity, which my father did not support. #2 I was afraid for my parents, but I was not afraid for myself. I felt confident that God was on our side, and that He would protect us. I walked out of the house and raised my face to the sunlight, praying that God would show my father how much He loved him and His other children. #3 I was always safe in my sister’s dorm room, because of the presence of the Lord. I was always welcomed by my friends at choir practice, because I was laughing. #4 The joy of the Lord is my strength, and my light, and my salvation. I was excited to be a part of the church, and I was thrilled by the pastor’s message about persecution.

Iranian and Minority Languages at Home and in Diaspora
While the typology, syntax, and morphology of Iranian languages have been widely explored, the sociolinguistic aspects remain largely understudied. The present companion addresses this essential yet overlooked area of research in two ways: (i) The book explores multilingualism within Iran and its neighbouring countries. (ii) It also investigates Iranian heritage languages within the diasporic context of the West. The scope of languages covered is vast: In addition to discussing Iranian minority languages such as Tati and Balochi, the book explores non-Iranian minority languages such as Azeri, Tukmen, Armenian and Mandaic.
