Friends of Ishmael: Bringing God's Blessing to Muslims       Written by Luke Hollaway

Most Christians struggle with sharing Christ with Muslims. In fact, with images of the Twin Towers falling and radical Islam rising, many Christians wonder if Muslims can be saved or are worth saving. Prejudice, fear, and anger are just some of the barriers that keep Christians and Muslims at arm's length. However, there have been a few over the centuries who have dared to be a true friend to the descendants of Ishmael.

Friends of Ishmael introduces you to 12 of these heroes of the faith. Included also in the book is the biblical background for Muslim ministry, a concise, easy-to-read history of the beginning of Islam, and practical suggestions to move you out of your comfort zone. Although this book is an excellent missions education tool for pastors, youth pastors, and missions leaders, the main purpose of Friends of Ishmael is to call out a new generation of young people to abandon their small ambitions and become friends with Muslims, bringing God's blessing to them.

Look What God Can Do!   Written by Jess Jennings

Ever since the Great Commission was given to the church, most have either closed their ears to the clear command to go, or they have closed their eyes and hearts to the needs of the world.  As a result, over 2,000 people groups are still unreached, lost, and without hope.

However, in every age, there have been ordinary individuals who have dared to believe God's word, stepped out in faith, and have impacted and influenced their generation for Christ.

Look What God Can Do introduces the reader to 13 of these heroes of the past.  Although this book is an excellent mission's education tool and discussion started on many topics related to cross-cultural missionary training, it's main purpose is to challenge and inspire the reader to finish the task of reaching every people group with the Gospel of Jesus Christ in this generation.

Spiritual Warfare: Victory over the Powers of this Dark World.  Written by Timothy Warner

 

This book provides believers with the information- and ammunition- they need to engage in spiritual warfare. The author shows from the Scriptures that God's people can defeat the enemy because of the character of God, the certainty of His promises, our authority as His people, and-- most of all-- the victory Christ has already won.

 

The author doesn't see a demon behind every bush, but neither does he minimize the spiritual conflict. With great balance and sensitivity, he urges the Church to not only withstand the attacks of the enemy, but to storm his gates & bring as many captives as possible into the Kingdom of the God of love.
