Someone just said yes to Jesus — a friend, a family member, someone in your church — and most believers feel unready to walk the next stretch with them. Safar, Persian for "journey," is Elam Ministries' free one-to-one discipleship path: thirty biblical steps meant for two people, not a class.^1^3
A hamsafar — a co-journeyer, not a teacher or pastor — meets about twice a week over roughly the first hundred days. Together they read Scripture, talk honestly, pray, and practice the step before the next one. The path moves from time with God, the Cross, and the Holy Spirit through forgiveness, fear, and sharing faith.^4
Elam built Safar for the rapidly growing Iranian church and kept translating it. The public site now offers English, Farsi, Dari, Arabic, Turkish, Pashto, Danish, Portuguese, Spanish, and German. Churches can launch it with free posters and slides; iOS and Android apps sit beside the web journey.^1^6^8
Congregations such as St Mungo's in Edinburgh and Tove Valley Baptist Fellowship have put Safar at the center of ordinary discipleship. People who have walked it write of learning to forgive, tell the truth, and say they follow Jesus even at home.^1^10
