Reaching Muslims: A one-stop guide for Christians

Description

"A fascinating introduction covers demography, theology, culture, politics, justice, and other aspects of Islamic identity. It is well illustrated with stories and examples. Nick considers what reasons a Muslim might have for thinking that Jesus is good news. What does the Qur'an say about Jesus? Why do we know that God loves Muslims? He then suggests thirteen 'No Regret Moves' to help build open-hearted friendships and to equip Christians to connect with Muslims, including: Pray in faith for open hearts; Foster curiosity; Show love in action; Invite others into The Story and your story. He deals with three theological hot potatoes - should Christians call God 'Allah'; should a convert from Islam be baptised; and should Christians eat hallal meat? Detailed appendices provide sample talks for Muslim audiences, and offer seven specific ways to foster contact with the Muslim community."

Part of the leadership team at Emmanuel Church, Oxford, Nick is a Cambridge graduate, a McKinsey alumnus and a gifted evangelist. Having recently completed a MA at Wadham College Oxford, he began a DPhil in September 2009. He is a regular speaker for Ravi Zacharias International Ministries.
