Christ in Me, Muslims Around Me

What to Do?

This book, written by a Christian for Christians, begins with the story of Abraham, then introduces Mohammed and traces the growth of Islam through the centuries. Next follows a comparison of the themes of the Bible and the Quran, and an outline of some of today's viewpoints in both Christianity and Islam. The book continues by describing current trends in inter-religious relationships, then offers suggestions for Christians as they stand for Christ in this increasingly Muslim world. ...I found the book very informative from the prologue to the last page. The author is talented in her way with words, writing in a manner that is easy to understand. The chapters are each thought-provoking and offer a lot of information to digest. Any person who has questions about the Muslim way of life, especially from a Christian standpoint, will find answers to many, if not all, of their questions.... Reviewed by Brenda Ballard for Readers Favorite ...This is a very well-written book that not only provides information, but gives facts of history to support each theory or belief. I personally liked the ending of the book which includes various notes, references and appendices. This is without question a very vital part of the book and is sure to benefit the reader.... I really enjoyed reading this book and would recommend it to anyone who is looking to learn more about Christianity and Islam. Reviewed by Darin Godby for Readers Favorite ...This easy book is a good source of knowledge for those who want to learn more about Islam, from a secondary perspective. It is well-written and has many sources quoted in it. It is clear and easy to follow.... I recommend it to Christians from young adults to adults. Reviewed by Author Anna del C.

Inshallah, Habibi

When the Twin Towers are hit on September 11, 2001, Mohammed's success as a stockbroker in a tiny Middle Eastern country quickly escalates, encouraging his love to debauch women while fighting off traditional marriage, incessant social corruption and Western hegemony, all in a closed wealthy Muslim country, until he soon realizes that his promiscuous life erodes and corrodes his sanity. He eventually meets a younger bisexual woman who he thinks might be worthy of marriage. However, that changes when she takes him farther in a downward spiral of self-analysis and destruction. By the summer of 2008, when worldwide financial markets are about to correct, Mohammed ultimately senses his own spirituality being stolen by the very individuals he has confronted and the society he has loved to hate. The story is a satire yet a serious social critique depicting many critical points which have (mis)shaped Kuwait, leading Mohammed to point out the absurdities of the personalities and situations he finds himself in.

"...A narrative of the playboy lifestyle of a divorced Kuwaiti man who is trying to mask his pain and loneliness by acting out against the cultural norms and attempting to rationalize his doing so by questioning their validity.

The Snowball

Mike Gentry is in deep trouble. Not only has he hidden his family's financial difficulties from his wife, Susan...not only has he invested foolishly with his college roommate, Ricky...not only has he drifted away from his days of dependence on God... but Mike has promised some things to his family that are weighing him down. His family's needs are unending, the credit balances are rising, the checking balance is perpetually miniscule, and the growing marriage tension between Mike and Susan is apparent to everyone, including their three young children. The tension in his family is crippling his peace, and his mind is going to a place darker than he ever imagined. Then, one day the weather changed. A bright, early snow accosted him. Through it, he learns an unsuspecting lesson from-of all things-a snowball. This winter surprise leads Mike on an imperfect journey to a place of hope. The Snowball covers all the themes familiar to families in America-success, failure, temptation, love, loss, dishonesty, confession, money, happiness, sorrow, conflict, healing, resolution. And revolution. Personal revolution. The characters are believably human, and out of their pain-and out of their eventual joy-begins the flow of hope.

Prisci Theologi and the Hermetic Reformation in the Fifteenth Century

Before Martin Luther called upon the Church to return "ad fontes" to Holy Scripture, Marsilio Ficino (1433-1499) and Giovanni Pico della Mirandola (1463-1494) endeavored to call the Church to a far different 'font'-the writings of the "prisci theologi" (ancient theologians) of pagan antiquity. Zoroaster and Hermes Trismegistus were interpreted as inspired teachers whom men such as Ficino and Pico believed could provide guidance for the Church in their time. Their students included future popes (most notably Pope Leo X) and leaders of the Renaissance, such as Johannes Reuchlin (1455-1522). Their influence liners to this day in the "Traditionalist" movement and in the "postmodern" belief that all religions ultimately lead to the truth. James D. Heiser is Bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Diocese of North America (ELDoNA) and Pastor of Salem Lutheran Church in Malone, Texas. He also serves as Dean of Missions of the Augustana Ministerium.

E-Learning

Towards an Agile Education

This book, basically a guide for King Abdulaziz University's (KAU) teaching staff, attempts to address the need for a consideration of the multi-faceted nature of e-learning. It is primarily the result of many discussions which I had with fellow instructors at (KAU) during workshops and training sessions on the subject of e-learning. It provides basic information about e-learning concepts, design, teaching practices, technology choices, and trends.
