| Unshackled & Growing is an extraordinarily helpful resource for any Muslim who is seeking to learn more about Jesus and who is concerned with comparing the worldviews of Islam and Christianity. Dr. Jabbour’s familiarity with Arabic and Islamic culture and the concerns of Muslim people make this an insightful book. As a former Muslim who has come to faith in Jesus, I wish that I had the benefit of this book during my own journey. Abdu Murray Lawyer and co-founder, Aletheia International As we go to press, I can hardly do more than mention this brand new very special book. Some books are written for Christians about Muslims, and usually portray Muslims in a negative light. Some books are written for Muslims and continue to plead for superiority of Christian tradition with all its spots and warts. Few books are as profoundly knowledgeable of both traditions and try to sincerely to be fair to both traditions. For this reason this is a very unusual and highly significant book. In part, its significance is that it allows Christians themselves to be unshackled by centuries of extraneous tradition. But in so doing it clears the decks for true understanding between Christians and Muslims. This unique and valuable book explains in simple and straightforward language how curiosity can lead to genuine attraction to the man Jesus and then to personal trust. The Christian life is both coming to Christ through faith in Him and then walking with Him the rest of one’s days. Dr. Jabbour addresses both of these issues with clarity and simplicity. I want to strongly urge you, my colleagues and my friends who love Muslims, to introduce this book to them. Numerous books that I read about Christianity failed to help me explain my faith effectively to my Muslim family and friends. Dr. Jabbour’s book is readable with stories and illustrations that speak to the Muslim mind. He presents the pure and biblical Gospel and invites the reader to be a “follower of Jesus,” not a Western Christian. Are you curious to know the truth about Jesus’ life and message? Then read this book. There is no other like it. Nabeel Jabbour has written this book to people who admire Jesus’ life and wonder if He was more than a prophet. He writes with the historical and biblical accuracy of a scholar and with the gentleness of a true follower of Jesus. For any person who wants to know more about Jesus Christ, this book is a must. The issue of who Jesus really is in the Muslim mind has always raised questions and debate. This book gives an excellent explanation about Jesus and the “true Injil” with simple language and clear illustrations. Every page is worthwhile reading. |
