Guiding the discussion is Sam Shamoun  an Arab-Christian born in Kuwait but raised in the United States. Well-grounded in the doctrines of Islam  he believes in Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the first study  \u003cem\u003eThe Challenge of Islam\u003c\/em\u003e (Part One): What is Islam?  Shamoun’s narrative casts much-needed light on Islam’s historical development and explains in layman’s terms how this faith is put into action by Muslims today. Throughout this study  he articulates and emphasizes the great hope Christians share in the saving grace of Jesus against the works-based futility inherent in Islam’s message.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the second study  \u003cem\u003eThe Challenge of Islam\u003c\/em\u003e (Part Two): Defending the Christian Faith  Shamoun reviews key texts from the Qur’an and the Bible  challenges Islamic presuppositions concerning Qur’anic priority  and refutes the notion of the Bible’s supposed textual corruption. Additionally  he clarifies topics such as the Muslim concept of the Trinity; the basis for jihad or “holy war” and its dynamic  three-stage process; and how society might be altered if non-Muslims were subjugated to a world governed by Islam.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Bible study targets a topic of which Christians everywhere need to be informed. Estimates put Muslim numbers globally at well over one billion  yet their beliefs  religious practices  and social philosophy remain surprisingly unknown—and thoroughly confusing—to many Christians and non-Muslims alike. Informative and engaging  Shamoun’s presentation throughout is centered on the goodness of God’s saving grace through the redemptive work of Jesus Christ.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncludes a PDF study guide for each part.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pacific Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41587346735155,"sku":"2798501368","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0103\/8902\/8915\/files\/2798501368jpg.jpg?v=1774918937","url":"https:\/\/clovisabc.com\/products\/challenge-of-islam","provider":"ClovisABC.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
