Is Your God My God? takes a unique look at the two religions, Christianity and Islam. The book discusses both religions via research, interviews, and personal experiences. Do we all worship the same God? How do we know God exists? Who made us? Why are we here? It is written in such a manner as to enlighten and engage the reader in these, and additional, important, and controversial topics.
Since 9/11 (and before), there has been a great deal of misunderstanding and misguided beliefs regarding Islam and Muslims. This book helps to address and answer these ideas and beliefs. It provides a thorough look at the two religions in a reader-friendly manner. There is definitely a need for this important topic to be understood and addressed in today’s global world.
