About this ebook
This up-to-date textbook features global perspectives on current Christian engagement with Islam, equipping readers for mission among Muslims. Evelyne Reisacher, who has worked extensively with Muslims in Europe, helps readers move from fear to joy as they share the gospel with Muslims. Reisacher surveys areas where Muslims and Christians encounter one another in the twenty-first century, highlighting innovative models of Christian witness in everyday life. Drawing on insights from global Christianity, this survey takes account of diverse conceptions of Muslim-Christian relations. The book may surprise those who believe mission among Muslims is nearly impossible.
This is the first book in the Mission in Global Community series, which reframes missiological themes and studies for students around the common theme of mission as partnership with others. Series authors draw upon their own global experience and that of their global colleagues to illumine present realities and chart a course into the future. Series editors are Scott W. Sunquist and Amos Yong.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Many people are terrified at the prospect of witnessing to Muslims , we need to realise that at the end of the day we are dealing with a vulnerable person whom Jesus loves and is able to extend his hand of forgiveness. With love. This gospel is shared with joy. Lovely examples of how this can be done and personal stories from other missionaries.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Very practical and informative. Easy reading. It's very helpful especially for those people who want to do missionary effort between Muslim and Christain relations.
