Most of us have New Year resolutions – go to the gym, get organized, or start a new hobby. But how many of us have resolutions that are for the Kingdom of Heaven and not personal gain?
Odds are you have a lot of questions about Islam. You weren’t raised in an Islamic household or culture, so of course, you’re not going to understand everything your Muslim friends say or do!
You’ve probably heard your Muslim friend talk about obeying Allah by following specific practices, such as praying multiple times a day. These practices are called the Five Pillars of Islam – required of every Muslim to complete
We are always excited to help you prepare for any questions that your Muslim friends will probably ask you. That's why we couldn’t leave it at just five! (P.S. if you missed our first post
While Turkey is not politically affiliated with Islam, the cultural presence of Islam is overwhelming. There are no laws against converting to Christianity, but any Muslim who leaves Islam is punished and isolated from their friends and family. Socially and culturally, Turkey is shut off from the Gospel.
The month of Ramadan is coming up! Ramadan is one of the Five Pillars of Islam and is important for every Muslim so that they can gain Allah’s favor. This year, it begins April 2nd and goes until sundown on May 2nd.
What if you only had one specific second every year to enter into God’s presence? If that one second took you outside of time itself and allowed you to see the Lord’s divinity and to get your prayers answered, wouldn’t you do anything in your power to make sure that you could gain access?
Prayer in Islam is not the same as our prayer life as Christians. Muslims are under a strict schedule of prayers that they must follow to please Allah
Somalia is an Islamic country on the horn of Africa. Even though there are over 14 million people living in Somalia, the Christian population is only in the hundreds according to Open Doors.

The Muslim population greatly outnumbers Christians and is projected to grow, so we can only expect greater persecution of the Church from all angles.
How much do you know about the modern-day country of Lebanon and how you can be praying for them?
Many things are going on as we turn the clocks from 2022 to 2023, let’s look at some events that could be harder to talk about, so that you are prepared to either bring it up in a conversation or respond when your Muslim friend brings it up.

Islam has its own version of this “salvation prayer” or confession of faith. A person’s life changes forever once they utter specific two sentences. They become followers of Islam, trapped into a life of rules and rituals they must follow strictly.
Our goal this year is to unite the Church in prayer for the Islamic world! Not only will we help you know what to pray for, but we also will share tools to help you stay consistent in your prayer.
Talking to the Lord through prayer is an important practice in our spiritual walk. But our prayer life should not only be centered around ourselves. In fact, in 1 Timothy 2, Paul tells us that we should pray on behalf of “all men.”
In the Western church, there is an incorrect belief that if we try to share the gospel with someone, they will be so offended or angry that we will lose their friendship or be ridiculed. This is leaving out a very important fact about human nature that will shift our entire approach to evangelism.
Most of the women’s stories in the Bible are integral to the redemption story. We love to share with Muslim women how our Lord values His daughters because Islam does not value women as much as men.
