Nabeel T. Jabbour

Dr. Nabeel Jabbour comes from Lebanon and lived with his family in Egypt with The Navigators for fifteen years before coming to Colorado in January 1991. Since 1997 he and his family have been US citizens.

Although he comes from a Christian background, as he studied for a doctorate in Islamics he learned to stand in the shoes of Muslims and to see the world through their eyes. In April 2011 he was appointed by the International Leadership of The Navigators as an Ambassador at Large.

He is an adjunct professor and teaches intensive courses on a regular basis on "Islam and Current Events" at three seminaries in the United States and one seminary in Canada. He is a lecturer in churches and at missions conferences.

He has authored three books in Arabic, and four in English: Unshackled and Growing, Muslims and Christians on The Journey to Freedom, The Rumbling Volcano on Islamic Fundamentalism and The Unseen Reality on Spiritual Warfare. His latest book is The Crescent Through the Eyes of The Cross on the Muslims' worldview. see books

The Crescent Through the Eyes of the Cross

My Purpose

God has taken me over an incredible journey. I feel like He has designed me to do what I am doing these days. My childhood years in Syria, the many years in Lebanon, the fifteen great years in Egypt, and the years in the States since 1991 are all part of His program for my life.

I am grateful to God that I have had the opportunity to learn to stand in the shoes of Muslims and to see Islam through their eyes. I am also grateful to God that I have learned to interpret Islam to Christians in America and in the West. more
