    Can a Muslim pray in a Christian church?

    I attended a mosque as part of a classroom assignment when I was a Bible College student. I had to obtain approval from the professor, as the assignment was for students to attend a service at two different denominations than the one the student normally attended or identified with. Being a much...

    Reason for The Crusades explained

    Christianity was successfully defended for centuries without using the weapons of the world. It is and always has been possible to defend Christianity in the way which Jesus and the apostles taught, by word and by action, followers of Jesus to do.

    Historian shares how Islam really began

    “This method of raising and answering questions is central to Jesus’s teachings. I call the Jesus method. It is an exceptionally helpful tool for evangelizing Muslims. When Muslims are asked a question, they do not feel threatened or attacked. Using questions will help them think critically...

    Historian shares how Islam really began

    “Contrary to common misconceptions, most Muslims do not find Islamic dress restrictive, and these guidelines are viewed as a way to express faith rather than a limitation on personal freedom.” (Huda, “Islamic Clothing Rules and Requirements”)...

    Historian shares how Islam really began

    The necklace I asked about isn’t just a cross. It’s a Jerusalem cross, the symbol of the Crusades. It has connotations for a Muslim that a “regular” cross doesn’t. Wearing a Jerusalem cross while evangelizing a Muslim is a very bad idea. I’ve seen people make that mistake; mostly out of...
