The course textbook itself has more than 70 authors providing a broad range of perspectives on Islam.

Why Should this Course Matter to You?
Islam is considered by some to be the greatest challenge to Christianity today. There are more than six million Muslims in the U.S. alone, making Islam the second most popular religion in the United States. Sadly, Christians rarely reach out to Muslims. Some feel Muslims are too difficult to reach with the gospel. Others simply don't know how to share with their Muslim neighbors. Understanding Islam and Muslims can help break down these barriers.

Through friendships with Muslims, we learn more about the world today. Muslims are hospitable and have a rich, diverse culture and history. In addition, Muslims have many needs which should concern us as Christians. Respectfully expressing our faith in Jesus Christ can be a natural part of our friendships with Muslims. Muslims revere Jesus, and more Muslims have become His followers in the last 30 years than in the previous 1,250 years.

The message of this course is hopeful and gentle because of our belief in Jesus Christ and our following of His model of ministry towards others.
