About this title

Synopsis

The cross and the crescent are the symbols of two major religions that have had an uneasy relationship with each other for nearly one and a half millennia. Most Western Christians will now, at some time, come into contact with Muslims. But how do we understand, relate to, and share our faith with them? Jesus' call to love our neighbour involves putting aside our prejudices and overcoming the social, cultural and religious barriers which separate us from Muslim men, women and children. Colin Chapman's very practical and informative book helps us to do just that so that the good news of Jesus can by sympathetically communicated.

Review

"...one of the best books on Islam available today. Read it prayerfully and expect it to change you as well as inform you." Christian Herald
