Sharing the Gospel with a Muslim Neighbour (Paperback) by Robert Scott

We can often find it tricky to start a gospel conversation with our Muslim neighbours. Maybe we worry that we don't understand our Muslim friends' beliefs and will get caught out, or we might be wary of stepping on cultural toes and offending them, or perhaps we simply have no idea where to start.

In this practical guide to Muslim people and their faith, Robert Scott draws on his experience in Bangladesh and Central London to explain what Muslims believe. He presents the key pillars of Islam, unpacks Muslim beliefs about the Bible and Jesus, and answers questions about the Qur'an, Muhammad and more. This book will help you engage with whatever objections your Muslim friends may have and invite them to discover what the Bible says about Jesus.

If you've ever wondered how to open a conversation about the gospel with your Muslim neighbour, this book will provide encouragement to help you to start.

Robert Scott

Robert Scott helps to oversee the international outreach at St Helen's Bishopsgate, London, which involves supporting the church's mission partners overseas as well as outreach cross-culturally in London. For the latter he has often shared a platform with Muslim speakers to discuss similarities and differences between Christianity and Islam. These Meetings for Better Understanding have taken place in churches, mosques, community centres and universities. His book Dear Abdullah came out of some of these talks. He also lectures in Islamic Studies at Oak Hill Theological College in North London.

Ten years ago, Robert and his family spent 18 months in NE Bangladesh learning the Sylheti language, in order to better understand the many people of Sylheti background in Tower Hamlets. Now back in Tower Hamlets, he and his family are partnering with other local churches to share the gospel with Sylheti people. Previously he worked for the World Health Organisation and the Charity Commission. He tries to support Liverpool FC ("they were the best when I was 7") and Southend United ("where I'm from"), and still just about manages to play in goal for a local veterans league. Robert is married to Beccy and they have three teenage children.
