As a full-time missionary, I have encountered (and even presented) a lot of trainings and tools about witnessing to Muslim people, and this book is the most encouraging resource I've seen yet. The author begins with the "whys" of sharing the gospel with Muslims — or anyone else — and keeps that focus throughout the book. There is plenty of accessible information about Islam and Muslim culture in the book to help unfamiliar readers understand the worldviews, beliefs, and issues common to Muslim people, and Masri does present apologetic and practical advice and experience, but the main point is to exhort the ordinary Christian to trust and obey the Lord by partnering with Him in His zeal to reach people whom He loves. And it all starts with cultivating caring and welcoming relationships to build bridges and share the uniqueness of Christ and the good news of His love and salvation. I loved it.

Fouad Masri gives Christians a wonderful resource as we show love and share Christ with our Muslim friends. This is not a "silver bullet" approach, but as Masri shares more than once, ways to speak truth through conversations that point to Jesus. This is a helpful book for those at all levels of understanding of Islam, and his 55 Seconds for Change at the end of each chapter provides a pause for the reader to reflect on what's been shared and internalize it for future use.
The importance of conversation is also reflected in Masri's many accounts of personal times of sharing with Muslims around the world. Whether on an airplane, a university campus, or in a coffee shop, he demonstrates that the Lord opens opportunities for speaking into the lives of Muslims for the cause of Christ. It's all about spreading the seeds of the gospel, sharing the Word of God when the door is open, and letting God bring the increase. Nothing is forced in Masri's style nor should it be in ours.
A recommended read for all Christ-followers who love Muslims.

A Good primer on reaching Muslims with the Gospel
This is an easy to read, well written primer on sharing the Gospel with the Muslims around you.
The admonitions to share Christ and the principles involved are the same as in every other book about sharing your faith. But the specific applications to sharing with Muslims are most interesting and helpful. There is a much good cultural information to help Christians understand and build solid, respectful, and lasting relationships with the Muslims they know. If you care about the Muslim people around you, this book is a great help to start loving them to the Savior.

Not only was this fantastic introduction on reaching Muslims for Jesus but it was a terrific book on evangelism in general.

If you want a popular-level treatment of how to share Jesus with Muslims, this one is great!
I learned a lot about the Muslim faith, and feel more equipped than ever to speak to them about my faith.

A phenomenal and much needed book. I will be reading Masri's other books and I encourage fellow Christians to do the same. The harvest is plentiful, but as always the workers are few.
