The Muslim's Worldview
Date: November 19, 2022 (Saturday)
Location: Online / Zoom / From: 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM (EDT)
You are invited to hear from Dr. Nabeel Jabbour on how Muslims view the world and how Christians can better understand, relate and love them with the love of Christ. He wrote:
“It is easy these days to demonize Muslims, dehumanize them and make it justifiable to hate them. If we consciously or unconsciously omit Muslims from the Great Commission (1.8 billion), it will be no longer the Great Commission, it will become The Great Omission. What is awaiting you is a cross cultural experience of taking off your shoes, standing in the shoes of Muslims, putting on their glasses and trying to see the world through their eyes.”
In this webinar Dr. Jabbour will present and discuss:
- Why it is important for Christians to understand how Muslims view the world
- How Muslims view life, themselves, and others, including Christians
- How the Muslim worldview affect their understanding and acceptance of the Gospel of Christ
Dr. Nabeel T. Jabbour grew up in Lebanon and was a Lebanese before he got the US citizenship. He lived with his family in Egypt for 15 years before moving to Colorado Springs, his current home where he works with The Navigators. Although Dr. Jabbour comes from an Arab Christian background, for the first fifty years of his life, Muslims were his neighbors, teachers, roommates, and later his friends and students.
While earning a doctorate in Islamics, Dr. Jabbour's method of study was phenomenology. It is a method of study where the phenomenon is allowed to speak for itself resulting in a compassionate understanding of the phenomenon from the adherent's point of view. He did not want to project his prejudice on Islam and Muslims and come to predetermined conclusions. Instead, he learned to put on Muslim worldview lenses, to stand in their shoes, and to see the world through their eyes.
Dr. Jabbour was a professor and frequent lecturer at seminaries and churches around the world and he is the author of 'The Crescent Through The Eyes of The Cross', 'Unshackled and Growing', 'The Rumbling Volcano' and 'The Unseen Reality'.
