Overview:
A book on issues related to Insider Movement.
Content:
A strong sense of community accounts for much of the Muslim’s reluctance to consider the unique claims of Jesus Christ. While this truth is widely accepted among Christian missiologists, Beyond the Mosque is the first book to explain it thoroughly and explore its implications for missions.
The first three chapters cover the Islamic foundation of community, diversity within the Muslim community, and Islamic community in the modern world. Then the author turns to structures of Christian community, focusing on social dynamics within Christendom; and to Christian presence within Muslim community, exploring evangelistic approaches, worship forms, and sociological adaptations.
