IS IT POSSIBLE THAT MUSLIMS ARE WRONG ABOUT JESUS AND VARIOUS TENETS OF ISLAM? Is the famous Muslim writer Reza Aslan mistaken in his portrayal of Jesus of Nazareth and apologetic for Islam? Professor James Beverley and Professor Craig Evans take an in-depth look at subjects at the core of the Muslim-Christian divide: the reliability of the New Testament Gospels and the Qur’an, and what we can really know about Jesus and the prophet Muhammad. Importantly, they also examine the implications of traditional Islamic faith on the status of women, jihad and terrorism.

Synopsis How I Met God...From Islam to Jesus by : H.J. Trinity

In the corners of every culture lurk stories of tragedy and triumph. How I Met God from Islam to Jesus describes a captivating story of H. J. Trinitys tumultuous yet courageous journey from Iran to America, and from Islam to Christianity. H. J. Trinity was a Muslim woman born in the heart of the Middle East, who always felt insignificant, empty, and displaced by the strictness of Islam, her unloving family, and a morbid culture. Those negative forces ultimately left her with an aching void that plagued her entire life. One night, due to a personal tragedy that left her emotionally paralyzed, she lost all hope and faith in God. But that same night, her void was filled when she personally met Jesus, who then introduced her to God for the first time. And from that moment on, she continued to water the seed of happiness that God had planted in her heart. Her personal conviction, led by Jesus, propelled her to succeed in staving off all fears deriving from family, religion, and culture. Her philosophy and core beliefs have always been to live for love, health, and wealth. After witnessing many miracles, meeting Jesus face to face, and most importantly, having a direct relationship with God, she was inspired to share those experiences with the rest of the world. How I Met God from Islam to Jesus also shares how she communicates with God directly without following any rituals of religion, culture, or family. You will learn how her new revelation served as her armor against an extremely racist culture, how she was finally able to find peace and harmony through pain and discord, and how she lives her life today.

Synopsis The Jihad of Jesus by : Dave Andrews

We are caught up in the cycle of so-called "holy wars." In The Jihad of Jesus, Dave Andrews argues that while this inter-communal conflict is endemic, it is not inevitable. Depending on our understanding, our religions can be either a source of escalating conflict or a resource for overcoming inter-communal conflict; and for our religions to be a resource for overcoming conflict, we need to understand the heart of all true religion as open-hearted compassionate spirituality. In the light of an open-hearted compassionate spirituality, we can reclaim the word "jihad" from extremists who have (mis)appropriated it as a call to "holy war," and reframe it, in truly Qur'anic terms, as a "sacred nonviolent struggle for justice"; and we can reconsider Jesus, as he is in the Gospels, not as a poster boy for Christians fighting crusades against Muslims, but as "a strong-but-gentle Messianic figure" who can bring Christians and Muslims together. As this book shows, many Christians and Muslims have found Isa (Jesus) and the Bismillah (celebrating the mercy, grace, and compassion of God) as common ground upon which they can stand and work for the common good. The Jihad of Jesus is a handbook for reconciliation and action: a do-it-yourself guide for all Christians and Muslims who want to move beyond the "clash of civilizations," join the jihad of Jesus, and struggle for justice and peace nonviolently side by side.

Synopsis Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus by : Nabeel Qureshi

In Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus, now expanded with bonus content, Nabeel Qureshi describes his dramatic journey from Islam to Christianity, complete with friendships, investigations, and supernatural dreams along the way. Providing an intimate window into a loving Muslim home, Qureshi shares how he developed a passion for Islam before discovering, almost against his will, evidence that Jesus rose from the dead and claimed to be God. Unable to deny the arguments but not wanting to deny his family, Qureshi struggled with an inner turmoil that will challenge Christians, Muslims, and all those who are interested in the world’s greatest religions. Engaging and thought-provoking, Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus tells a powerful story of the clash between Islam and Christianity in one man’s heart?and of the peace he eventually found in Jesus. "I have seldom seen such genuine intellect combined with passion to match ... truly a 'must-read' book."—Ravi Zacharias
