Summary

"John" and "Mary" are working among Muslim immigrants and refugees in Europe, sharing the love of Jesus with people from a particular nation. Their work includes contacts with both long-term European residents and new refugees fleeing the crisis in the Middle East; each group requires different approaches when presenting the gospel. Listen as John and Mary share stories from their work—including the unique way God prepared Mary as a teen-ager to work among Muslims—and some common characteristics and experiences among Muslims who are choosing to leave Islam and follow Christ. We'll also talk about how you can reach out to Muslims, even if you feel intimidated or don't think you know the Quran well enough or know the right answers for their questions. We'll inspire your faith and add to your prayer list this week on VOM Radio.
