Encountering the World of Islam presents a fresh perspective on the Islamic faith to the body of Christ in the United States and internationally. Students work to understand Muslims from a variety of perspectives, wrestle with what it means to be a good neighbor to a Muslim, and think about how to communicate the gospel as good news to Muslims.

EWI's 12 lessons follow the 12 chapters in the book Encountering the World of Islam. Classes include lectures by guest speakers with experience living and working among Muslims, student acitivities, hands-on assignments, some of which are facilitated by an online classroom.

Come early to register on the night of the first class.
