Overview

Miraculous Movement recounts an amazing change taking place today within Muslim communities, where the truth of Jesus Christ is transforming the lives of thousands of Muslims from dozens of people groups. Discover the sometimes humorous, often sobering, but always enlightening true stories of how imams, sheikhs, and entire mosques are forsaking Islam and embracing Christ.

This close look at what the Lord is doing to spread the gospel highlights the key scriptural principles that help Christians reach out in love to share the gospel in their own community. The authors outline the principle of service to others that open doors of opportunity to the work of the gospel.

Top Highlights

“It is not easy to be a Muslim today. If Christians can begin to engage Muslims beyond the headlines of burkas and bombs, we will discover hundreds of millions of disheartened and discouraged people. Muslims’ lives are too often bounded by desolation and broken walls, but today many of them are desperate to discover people who love them, a God who loves them, and hope for the future.” (Page 13)

“Do not teach or preach; instead, facilitate discovery and obedience.” (Page 106)

“In a nutshell, Disciple Making Movements spread the gospel by making disciples who learn to obey the Word of God and quickly make other disciples, who then repeat the process. This results in many new churches being planted, frequently in regions that were previously very hostile to Christianity.” (Page 16)

“It is important to understand that we train new Christians to pray, we don’t teach them. This process is done, not by seminars and training materials and lectures, but simply by doing it, and, more important, by seeing it done.” (Page 61)

“Don’t do mass evangelism, just focus on one family?’ Thomas asked incredulously, aloud. ‘Disciple people toward salvation? Don’t preach and teach, just help lost people discover God’s Word and obey it? Disciple people toward salvation?’ He had never heard so many backward or strange ideas in his whole life.” (Pages 33–34)
