Discipleship for Evangelism Among Muslims - Beth Peltola

Imagine a worldwide Church mature in the Christian faith, dedicated to Jesus and His holy ways, ready to boldly explain Him to the Islamic world. If the latest statistics are correct, a quarter of the world’s population signs up to Islam. That means the Church, you and me, have a big mission job ahead of us. This exciting field of Christian mission becomes even more urgent when we consider that there are more Muslims in the world than atheists. Islam is spreading in number, especially in Europe. The Church needs to also grow, to become confident proclaimers of the good news built on lives sold out for Jesus. In this talk, we consider together some of the great joys and heavy crosses the church must carry, along with spiritual disciplines needed to raise up generations of confident Christians and ex-Muslims who now belong to Jesus.
