An introduction to what Muslims believe and how Christians can reach out to them with the gospel
Part of the Engaging With series.
Many Christians in the west are fearful of engaging in conversations about their faith with Muslims—believing that they will be hostile to Christian beliefs and discussions about the Bible.
This short book is designed to help both Christians and whole churches understand more about the variety of Muslims there are living in the West, and to reach out to them with the good news of the gospel. Written at a level that everyone can understand, this book emphasizes the importance of forming loving relationships—something that all Christians are able to do.
1. Who are these Muslims we meet every day?

For some time now there has been a desperate need for a practical guide to assist Western pastors and church leaders in equipping their congregations for effective ministry among their Muslim neighbors. Filled with helpful illustrations, conversion stories, and questions for further reflection, Engaging with Muslims is the place to begin for those who are serious both about understanding their Muslim neighbors and reaching them with the gospel.
With the world coming to the doorsteps of North America, we no longer must cross oceans to tell Muslims about Jesus. They are beside us at work, school and in our neighborhoods. John Klaassen’s book provides practical, biblical and compassionate wisdom on sharing the gospel with our Muslim friends. I pray that God will use this book to help Christians develop friendships with Muslims that will lead to opportunities to share Jesus.
Engaging with Muslims is an excellent work that is easy to read, understand, and apply to life. As a pastor, I am always looking for such resources to recommend to my church when it comes to making disciples of all nations. Klaassen does an outstanding job of providing a brief, highly practical, one-stop-shop on how we should view, understand, and minister to the Muslims around us. A wonderful resource for your church!
