Grace, Truth & Boldness with Muslim Neighbors! - Episode #12
Summary of the episode: In this episode of The E.A.R. Podcast, host Brandon Queen is joined by Timothy Harris, author of Loving Your Muslim Neighbor, to explore deep and challenging topics from chapters 33-35 of the book. The conversation focuses on three key areas: balancing grace and truth in evangelism, reflecting Christ’s love in interactions with Muslim neighbors, and the importance of speaking out about faith rather than staying silent.
The first segment discusses how being overly forceful in evangelism can push people away. Timothy emphasizes the importance of meeting people with grace and compassion, just as Jesus did with the woman caught in adultery. In the second segment, they dive into how Christians can reflect Christ’s love through respect and humility and explore the complexities of addressing difficult political topics like the Israeli/Palestinian conflict with compassion. Lastly, the episode tackles the challenge of staying bold in sharing the gospel, with Timothy urging Christians to resist the temptation to remain silent about their faith out of fear of offending others.
Throughout the conversation, Timothy shares practical insights on servant evangelism, listening to the Holy Spirit, and building trust through love. The episode challenges listeners to live out their faith boldly and compassionately in a world of differing beliefs.
Meet the Guest: Timothy and Miriam speak in churches everywhere to educate, equip, and energize Christians to gain God’s heart for Muslim people and to love them.
