Faith Under Fire! - Episode #14
Summary of the episode: In this investigative episode of The E.A.R. Podcast, titled “Faith Under Fire: Investigating Muslim Encounters and Evangelism,” host Brandon Queen interviews author Timothy Harris to explore the powerful narratives in chapters 39 through 41 of Loving Your Muslim Neighbor. Together, they dive into three eye-opening stories: “They Wanted to Arrest Me… For Fasting,” “Can You Believe It? God Loves the World!” and “And If You Go to Iraq, You Will Never See Your Grandchild Again.” Each story uncovers unique aspects of the journey of sharing faith with Muslim neighbors and the emotional, personal, and spiritual costs involved.
Brandon and Timothy begin by exploring Muslim international students' unique challenges when navigating unfamiliar cultural landscapes, discussing how small gestures of friendship and support can reflect Christ’s love. They then examine the depth of God’s love and the nuanced difficulties of sharing faith in high-risk areas. Finally, Timothy opens up about the personal and emotional sacrifices involved in missions, sharing his experiences of confronting fears and embracing the costs of serving in challenging regions.
Closing the episode, Brandon reminds listeners of the universal power of John 3:16, encouraging believers to love boldly wherever God has placed them.
