MUST READ!

This book is a must read for women and very insightful. Realizing that Biblical Christianity can touch a life by every single interaction we have, and also that many Christians don't really know how they would approach or broach the subject of religion with a Muslim woman, this book is an excellent resource! Christianity and the Muslim faith are opposing beliefs. They do not believe in the same God, the same Jesus and the same Holy Spirit. To love a Muslim enough to tell them about the God of the Bible will open doors to allowing them to hear the truth. God's Spirit will work from there :) Well worth the read, and Unveiling Islam is the next book on this same subject that EVERY CHRISTIAN, male or female, should read.

Crescent Shadows

Great book. Provides insight into the lives of Muslim women. Their thinking, their mindset, unspoken issues. You judge if you think these women have a voice. What is the outworking of fear in their lives?

Authors

Dr. Caner is a Turkish, Persian immigrant, and a former Muslim. His father was a muezzine in the mosque. I'll take my chances with his knowledge and experiences, versus that of the people whom you "know" and/or "heard the facts" from.

Why I Think Christians Should Read This Book

When I started reading this book,I simply could not put it down.I was very moved by the openess and frankness of the authors who wrote this.Christians really need to learn about this religion of over 1.5 billion people so we can be a better witness to them.In this book,the authors explain passionately the beliefs and mindset of the Muslim woman in a simple way that can be easily understood.Raised as Muslims,the authors received Christ as Savior when they were young adults and now they have a desire to reach out to the Muslims with the only real truth there is-Jesus Christ.Anyone who wants to get a better knowledge and understanding of Muslim women should read this book.Behind the veil of a Muslim woman,there is a needy and aching heart in need of Christ.
