Review:
It seems that I am being flooded with books on Islam and Muslim faith, whether stories like these of conversions, how to witness, their beliefs, etc. I am not sure if it is becoming more popular a topic or if God is trying to teach me something. But regardless I always enjoy real life stories of God at work in people’s lives. So knowing that was the topic of this book I was ready to read. It was encouraging to see the lives touched, to see God at work in the lives of those in the book. So often the Islamic nation denies their people the chance to learn about Christianity and to convert is treason. So it is inspiring to see a book that shows real examples of that happening, to see real life Muslims turning away from the way they were raised and a life they know to embrace something they have looked down on their entire life. It was an interesting book to read, giving some insight in to the mind and thinking of these people. It helps to give insight in to how to share Jesus as well as hope that He can reach them and save them.
