Overview:
This groundbreaking book sheds light on BMB's conversion.
Content:
This volume describes how many Muslims have become Christians and is designed to tackle the myth that the barriers to conversion are so high that Muslims almost never become Christians. The author has compiled conversion stories from 22 countries and two or more centuries, many of them told in some detail. Some are from previously published sources and some are from interviews with those who feel they should remain anonymous. In addition to the number of testimonies is the analysis and grouping of the stories according to what particular element of Christianity or characteristic of Jesus Christ Himself was decisive in the individual cases. The chapter on each of these different entry points gives a helpful analysis of the differences in teaching, and attitude or atmosphere, between the two Islam and Christianity.
