Islam has entered into an intense conflict with itself and with people of other faiths. The world’s fastest growing religion needs to be understood and engaged with love by followers of Jesus Christ.

Patrick Nachtigall introduces the basics of the Islamic faith, explains the underlying reasons for Islam’s current instability, and does not shy away from the militancy found in many forms of Islam. Geo-political tensions, the terrorist threat, and Christian revivals breaking out are discussed as the book prepares Christians to engage Muslims—free of stereotypes, but with a realistic view of how Christianity differs from Islam.

Facing Islam Without Fear is required reading for all Christians as we enter into a globalized world where the Islamic faith will be engaging, confronting, and challenging Christianity.
