Summary:
Inside the winner-take-all battle for the hearts, minds and souls of the people of the Middle East. Including never-before-seen profiles of the Radicals, the Reformers and the Revivalists, the book explains the implications of each movement, the importance of each leader, not only through the lenses of politics and economics but through the third lens of Scripture. Today, wars and revolutions define the modern Middle East, and many believe the worst is yet to come. Explores: How real and serious is the threat of Radical Islam to American national security eight years after 9/11? Are there any Muslim leaders who oppose the violence of the Radicals and is there any hope that such leaders will come to power in key countries in the Middle East? How can we as Christians help strengthen our brothers and sisters who love Jesus in the Muslim world, and how can we reach out to Muslims here at home?--From publisher description.
