CHRISTIANITY AND ISLAM

DVD0145
This four-part series video is based on the book “Is the Father of Jesus the God of Muhammad?” by Dr. Timothy George, Dean of Beeson Divinity School of Samford University. This series avoids the angry condemnation of all Muslims on the one hand, or a compromising of Christian truth-claims on the other. Muslim views are stated fairly and objectively from Muslim scholars who appear in the series. The programs set forth basic and foundational differences between Christianity and Islam and the implications for how we understand God, Christ, and the meaning of salvation. Four sessions are: 1.The Tenets of Islam; 2.The Trinity; 3.The Bible and the Incarnation; 4.The Cross and Salvation.
