Evangelical Christian Responses to Islam

Dr. Richard McCallum’s well-informed treatise examines seminal issues surrounding evangelical responses in their engagement of Muslims and Islam. It is a “must-read” for any Evangelical faculty, student, missiologist, or missionary/evangelist, whether new to the discussion or a veteran participant, from any part of the globe looking to become knowledgeable about this discussion. * Amit Bhatia, Associate Professor, Corban University, USA * Evangelical Christians are no different from catholic or liberal Christians, in that differing attitudes towards Islam can be found among them. This book provides an excellent outline of the variety of evangelical perspectives on Islam which has emerged since 2001, the main participants in the discussion in different parts of the world, and the particular issues of contention between them. * Hugh Goddard, Honorary Professorial Fellow at Centre for the Study of Islam in the Contemporary World, University of Edinburgh, UK * McCallum has produced a survey of how Evangelical Christians have engaged with the topic of Islam since the tumultuous events of 9/11, taking published Evangelical literature as his evidence base. Theologically aware and sociologically informed, this book offers a careful, sensitive account of how two powerful religious traditions contend with the other’s presence in a troubled world. * Mathew J.
