- 12th Annual Outreach Resource of the Year (Cross-Cultural) How can we build bridges with Muslims?Muslims are our coworkers, neighbors and friends. But Christians don't always know how to build relationships with Muslims. Fouad Masri provides practical ways for Christians to initiate conversations and develop relationships with Muslims. He offers insights into Muslim culture and helps Christians understand and relate their Muslim friends. Masri addresses seven common questions that Muslims ask about Jesus and the Christian faith, providing sensitive answers that winsomely guide Muslims to Jesus without arguing or awkward debating. With real-life stories of fruitful conversations and genuine relationships, Masri helps readers see Muslims as Jesus sees them, without fear, with love, hope and expectation. You don't need a Ph.D. in Islam to share your faith with a Muslim. You just need the heart of an ambassador. Discover how.

Fouad Masri is founder and president of the Crescent Project, which nurtures transformational relationships between Christians and Muslims and overcomes misconceptions about Islam and Christianity. He was born and raised in Beirut, Lebanon, and received an MA in Islamic studies from Fuller Theological Seminary. His previous works include the Bridges: Christians Connecting with Muslims DVD curriculum and the books Is the Injeel Corrupted? and Ambassadors to Muslims.
