Until recently is was possible for Americans to ignore Islam since there were so few Muslims in the country. However, today there are millions of adherents in the United States - more, in fact, than there are Episcopalians, Methodists, or Presbyterians.
Because of the rise of global transportation and communication, of Muslim immigration to America, and of militant Islamic terrorism, it is vitally important that Christians get the facts about the Islamic faith. Islam: A Catholic Perspective gives you those facts. You will learn about:
How Islam started and spread
Where Muslims get their beliefs
Basic Muslim teachings
Islam's view of Jesus and Mary
The "Five Pillars" of Islam
The meaning of jihad
Whether Islam means "peace"
Islam's potential for violence and peace
What the Catholic Church teaches about Islam
How to share the gospel with Muslims
Islam: a Catholic Perspective gives you the background you need to deal with Muslims and understand the role their religion plays in local, national, and world events today.
