Why Muslims Become Christians - Emil Shehadeh
When Muslims become Christians, they risk their lives and the lives of their families. They and their families suffer terrible persecution. Why do some of them take this risk? This workshop will examine questionnaire-based research results from almost 1,600 believers from Muslim backgrounds. We will explore what attracts Muslims to Christianity, what repels them from Islam, and how we can better reach them for the Gospel.
