The Cross in the Shadow of the Crescent: An Informed Response to Islam?s War with Christianity

Islam is on the rise all over the West, including America. In this compelling new book, bestselling author Erwin Lutzer urges Christians to see this as both an opportunity to share the gospel and a reason for concern.

We have now reached a tipping point―the spread of Islam is rapidly altering the way we live. These changes are cause for alarm, for they endanger our freedoms of speech and religion.

At the same time, this opens an incredible door of ministry for Christians, for Muslims normally do not have access to the gospel in their own lands.

In The Cross in the Shadow of the Crescent, readers will discover helpful answers to these questions and more:

• How does Islam’s growing influence affect me personally?
• In what ways are our freedoms of speech and religion in danger?
• How can I extend Christ’s love to Muslims around me?

A sensitive, responsible, and highly informative must-read!
