Content:
The article analyzes the reality of BMBs conversion and apostasy in order to draw application points for healthy discipleship strategies that goes beyond initial evangelism. Instead of arguing theories in abstract, a local church in Turkey is used as a case study, with the underlying belief that the situation the church finds herself in is similar to those in other minority churches that live in Islamic settings.
