Year-Round Mentoring Group on Witnessing to Muslims

with Dr Emil Shehadeh

Programme Overview

Goal:

To equip Christian Evangelists or individual Christians interested in evangelising Muslims, to effectively share the Gospel with Muslims. This involves some knowledge of Islam and how it impacts individual and societal worldviews. It also involves understanding which Christian doctrines seem to present a problem to the Muslim mind. Above all, this course will deal with defining the Gospel of Christ, how to share it and how to answer questions posed by Muslim seeker. Our aim is not to equip people to win arguments, but rather to win souls for Christ.

Qualifications:

Bible-believing Christians who are currently involved or feel called by God to get involved in evangelizing Muslims.
