Since 9/11, people are asking “What is really going on in the Muslim world?” “Is the media giving us the whole picture?” “Do we have reason to fear?” And as Christians, “How should we respond?”
A little over a year ago the Zwemer Center for Muslim Studies launched a weekly podcast designed to equip listeners to think critically about media, Muslims, and the mission of God.
The podcast is engaging, conversational, and offers great food for thought. While many episodes deal with current events, I also loved the story of Cash and Ann Godbold and their work among Tuareg nomads which began decades ago.

» Read more about these books and why they were nominated as “must reads” for church missions mobilizers. Most but not all came out in 2015. A big thanks to editor Ellen Livingood and the mission leaders who contributed to this helpful list. We had read and reviewed several and wondered about others, but missed some of them all together.
