Content:
This project will accomplish two purposes.
Firstly, to provide for churches in North America engaged with believers of Muslim background a resource for identifying and addressing cultural sensitivity needs within their leadership and congregation. This provides for the believers of Muslim background not only a place of belonging, but a place where effective discipleship, community, and leadership can occur.
Secondly, as the center of evangelicalism is moving to the Southern and Eastern hemisphere, the role of the Western church and her missionaries has changed to one of full and equal partnership with our brothers and sisters from other parts of the world. As our Muslim background brothers and sisters in North America realize their own callings and leadership skills, they will naturally lead out in cross cultural ministry.
