Biographie de Nakhati Jon
Nakhati Jon serves and teaches in the Middle East, Central Asia, and North America among Persians. He loves to analyze and evaluate the differences between Christianity and Islam. He is working on a collection of books Exploring Marriage in an Islamic Context. The series will discover contrasting foundational concepts from the Bible and the Quran. The series begins with "Searching Below the Surface" as the foundational whys to the critical differences between these two perspectives.
These introductory issues will uncover distinct core ideas that influence marriage definitions (Defining Marriage), especially how to live out that definition (Accommodating Marriage). Later books will focus on teaching the marriage passages of Genesis and Ephesians in an Islamic setting. These books convey the sweet aroma of Christ to those needing Christ's love in their marriages, along with those ministering among the least-reached Muslim communities.
The series' goal is to help Christian believers and practitioners find ways to apply a covenant marriage in the Islamic context. The Islamic society influences not only Muslims but those touched by their community. Awareness and understanding of presuppositions in Christian covenant and Islamic contract marriages will enable practical ideas on how couples can live in covenant oneness. Nakhati Jon also earned a Master's (1992) and Doctoral degree in Educational Ministry (2021) from Dallas Theological Seminary.
He is the author of "Survey of Shia Marriage in Iran" and numerous books in a Central Asian language.
