Monday Evenings (April 12 - June 14) | 7:00 - 8:30 pm | Carrollton Education Suite or Online

The rise of Islam in the U.S. and abroad threatens religious freedom and the spread of the Gospel. News reports of violence traced back to Islamic extremists are common. Christians are paralyzed with fear of something they don’t understand or are unwittingly fooled by politically savvy misrepresentations. Meanwhile, Muslims perish without finding the personal relationship with God (through Jesus Christ) that they desperately desire. Don’t be overwhelmed or dismayed. Be empowered! A Christian’s Response to Islam will help you understand today’s headlines with a biblical perspective. Topics include: the founding of Islam, the root of Jihad and hatred for Israel, women in Islam, how to share the Gospel with Muslims, and Islam’s role in the end times. Speakers include Pastor Dan Erickson and Pastor Ralph Holland as well as former Muslims who have come to know Christ. Attend this class live or via secure internet stream. Class will be followed each night by informal discussion opportunity. Class registration is just $25 plus books. Students may obtain Covenant Training Institute credit for this course for an additional fee. Register here.
