When we talk about missions today, it’s easy to think the church is making progress somewhere “out there.” But what if the story we’re telling ourselves is incomplete? What if the real problem isn’t opposition to the gospel—but the absence of access to it?

In our latest episode of The Keystone Project Podcast, we sit down with Chris Clayman, CEO of Joshua Project, an organization helping the global church see where the gospel has not yet gone.

This episode isn’t just inspiring—it’s eye-opening. Chris shares how data drives strategic mission decisions and how Joshua Project equips the church to move from awareness to action.

You’ll hear:

• How Joshua Project identifies over 7,000 unreached people groups worldwide.
• The difference between unreached, frontier, and hidden people groups—and why it matters.
• How population, migration, and diaspora data shape opportunities for the gospel.
• How local churches and missionaries use research to prioritize next steps for reaching the least-reached peoples.

Whether you’re a missionary, a ministry leader, or a follower of Christ wanting to see God’s Kingdom expand, this episode will reframe how you see the world map—and your place in God’s global story.

Together, we can take part in reaching the unreached in our generation.

What’s really happening in Iran — and why are millions rejecting Islam?
In this powerful episode of The Keystone Project Podcast, we sit down with Ramin Parsa, an Iranian ex-Muslim who grew up under Iran’s Islamic regime and experienced firsthand the fear, violence, and spiritual emptiness enforced by Sharia law.

While the world often frames Iran’s protests as political or economic, Ramin reveals the deeper spiritual crisis driving the revolt: a widespread rejection of Islam itself.

From public executions and brutal Sharia punishments to unanswered prayers and religious oppression, Ramin shares his journey from devout Shiite Islam to deep disillusionment. After reading the Quran and Hadith for himself, he began questioning Islam’s teachings — and eventually encountered Jesus Christ in a life-changing moment that brought forgiveness, healing, and freedom.

This episode explores:
- Why Iranians are abandoning Islam in record numbers
- What life is really like under Iran’s Islamic regime
- The rise of Iran’s underground Christian church
- How mosques are closing and cultural identity is shifting
- The stark contrast between Islam and the message of Jesus
- Why this moment is critical for the global church

Despite intense persecution, the gospel is spreading quietly and powerfully throughout Iran and the Iranian diaspora. Ramin now ministers to Iranian believers worldwide and calls Christians everywhere to pray, engage, and recognize the historic spiritual movement unfolding before our eyes.

👉 Watch, pray, and share this testimony to raise awareness for the church in Iran.

Christmas is one of those seasons we think we know really well — but when you slow down and really look at it, there’s a lot more going on beneath the surface.

In this special Christmas edition of The Keystone Project Podcast, we sit down and talk honestly about what Christmas actually means and why it still matters so much. We move from some of the darker folklore that’s crept into the season (like Krampus), to biblical clues about when Jesus may have really been born, to a powerful true story from World War II where enemy soldiers laid down their weapons and sang Silent Night together on Christmas Eve.

Along the way, we talk about:

• Why Christmas is celebrated all over the world — and why it always points back to Jesus
• Where the story of Krampus came from and what fear-based obedience can (and can’t) do
• Biblical and historical reasons some scholars believe Jesus may have been born during the Feast of Tabernacles
• Why December 25th became the date we celebrate Christmas — and why it’s not rooted in pagan festivals
• A moving WWII Christmas story that reminds us what peace and mercy can look like even in the middle of war
• At the center of everything is the incarnation — God choosing to come near, to dwell among us, and to step into our broken world.

Our hope with this episode is simple: that it helps you slow down, reflect, and maybe see Christmas with fresh eyes — not just as a holiday to celebrate, but as a message to live out through peace, mercy, and on mission.

🎧 Listen when you’re ready, and feel free to share it with someone who could use a little hope this season.
