    Product Description

    Erwin W. Lutzer’s ‘The Cross and the Crescent’ uses real stories, biblical imperatives and informed insight to take a serious and level headed look at the questions Christians are asking faced with the growing influence of Islam in the world today. Looking at Christians’ fears for the future and the reality of multicultural society, the author explores issues including: How does Islam's growing influence affect me personally? In what ways are our freedoms of speech and religion in danger? How can I extend Christ's love to Muslims around me? This title provides answers to these questions.

    Writing in his foreword, Dr Samuel Ezra Naaman of the Department of World Mission, Moody Institute, Chicago sums up the problem of that Christianity face in understanding Islam: “At its beginning… because some of its teachings are similar to Christianity, early Christians mistook Islam as a sect of Christianity.” Later, Luther described the core teachings of Islam as: “vehemently opposed to the teachings of Christianity.” Yet Dr Lutzer gives hope that Christians can actively engage with Muslims; infact, he writes, disengagement, is no an option.

    ‘The Cross and the Crescent’ provides encouragement to Christians to be neither hesitant nor afraid, but instead to be passionate about reaching out and sharing the hope and love found in Jesus.

    Erwin Lutzer
    Erin W. Lutzer has served as senior pastor of the Moody Church in Chicago since 1980. Dr. Lutzer is a renowned theologian and an award-winning author of more than twenty books, including the bestselling The Da Vinci Deception and The Truth About Same-Sex Marriage. The featured speaker on three national radio programs, The Moody Church Hour, Songs in the Night, and Running to Win, Dr. Lutzer speaks both nationally and internationally at Bible conferences and seminars helping to further God's kingdom.

    Islam is on the rise all over the West, including America. In this compelling new book, bestselling author Erwin Lutzer urges Christians to see this as both an opportunity to share the gospel and a reason for concern. We have now reached a tipping point - the spread of Islam is rapidly altering the way we live. These changes are cause for alarm, for they endanger our freedoms of speech and religion.

    At the same time, this opens an incredible door of ministry for Christians, for Muslims normally do not have access to the gospel in their own lands. In "The Cross in the Shadow of the Crescent", readers will discover helpful answers to these questions and more: How does Islam's growing influence affect me personally? In what ways are our freedoms of speech and religion in danger? How can I extend Christ's love to Muslims around me? This is a sensitive, responsible, and highly informative must-read.
