The nature and practices of Islam draw worldwide intrigue. What do Muslims believe? Why do they defend their beliefs as they do? How do we present the gospel to them? This course examines Islam from both a Christian and a Muslim perspective, covering the history and validity of the Koran, Muslim theology, the role of women, and the places of Christ, the Bible, and the Trinity within Islam. The goal of the course is to understand the Muslim mindset, and to learn how to share Christ from within that mindset.

  • Very informative course giving a foundational understanding of issues pertaining to Christian mission to Muslims. If you simply want a course about Islam, then this will probably not be the best. This is a course about Mission / Evangelism to Muslims. Good course, lots of information, which will provoke a desire to explore deeper in some areas. Been a hard slog, but glad I did it!

  • I thoroughly enjoyed this course. It was a joy to listen to. I absolutely love learning new things. And believe me, nearly all was new. I had never studied Islam before. So thank you for that. Of course, this course is not just offered so that we can acquire knowledge. It’s meant to equip the saints. This introduction is a drop in the bucket to ministering to Muslims but it provides such wonderful insights. I love the teaching style of the lecturer as well. Thank you.
