CRAGG, Kenneth - The Call of the Minaret - (Paperback)

Book looks very good but inside are old sticky tape stains from a plastic cover that preserved the outside so well - Previous owner's name inside.    >>>    The Call of the Minaret is, perhaps, the best single book to introduce the educated Christian to the Muslim world, and to questions of how Christian witness fits into that rather tense and difficult environment. The book was written in 1956 but had been republished numerous times and has not lost its combination of keen insight into Christian doctrine and practice, and the life and thought of Muslims. Also, he manages to communicate poignant critiques of Islam while also writing in an irenic and mild manner. His prose is at times fairly convoluted, and a good knowledge of history and Scripture are presupposed. In many ways, the history of missiology in the Muslim world has been a working out of many of these ideas and challenges.    * Islam *
