Reddit mentions of Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus: A Devout Muslim Encounters Christianity

His story and testimony is so profound. If you are not familiar with his book "Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus" I advise all to read it! It is amazing! https://www.amazon.com/Seeking-Allah-Finding-Jesus-Christianity/dp/0310527236

I have prayed for Nabeel over the past year or so as he has been battling this cancer. As he has nothing now to hold onto except the hand of Jesus, I pray that Nabeel will do just that! I pray Jesus that you will be His strong tower and place of refuge. You are the healer and no sickness is too difficult for you to take, as you said by your stripes we are all healed. I pray against any fear or worry that he may be dealing with right now. May his extended family come to knowledge of you as well, as I know that is what Nabeel desires more than anything, even his life, for his parents to know you Jesus. So speak to them through this I pray.

Perhaps this book will help? Nabeel Qureshi is a former Muslim and a very intellectually honest person as well.

Check out Dr. Brant Pitre's [The Case for Jesus] (https://www.amazon.com/Case-Jesus-Biblical-Historical-Evidence/dp/0770435483) and Nabeel Qureshi's books [Seeking Allah, Finding Jesus] (https://www.amazon.com/Seeking-Allah-Finding-Jesus-Christianity/dp/0310527236) and [No God but One: Allah or Jesus?] (https://www.amazon.com/God-but-One-Investigates-Christianity/dp/0310522552/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_14_t_0?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=RQKED6JFR7154CQFB370)

As for Bible difficulties, Trent Horn's [Hard Sayings] (https://www.amazon.com/Hard-Sayings-Catholic-Answering-Difficulties/dp/1941663745/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1492022538&sr=8-1&keywords=hard+sayings).

Also give [this] (https://www.catholic.com/magazine/print-edition/the-great-and-enduring-heresy-of-mohammed) and [this] (https://www.catholic.com/magazine/online-edition/asking-the-right-question-about-islams-god). You can also browse that site, as it will help.


Christianity rises or falls on the resurrection. Start [here] (http://www.peterkreeft.com/topics-more/resurrection-evidence.htm) and [here] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ErnJF_nwBk&list=PL1mr9ZTZb3TUYymBPce08oyuhnHLLkR_B) for some info on it; NT Wright has a book on it that is supposed to be good but I haven't read it.

I understand that there might not be many Christians in your area, but you might want to find a local parish priest and talk to him. He can give you a lot of advice. Also, feel free to PM me as I am also a convert (not from Islam, however).

You should read this book.

Mathew 24:24-25
24 For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 25 See, I have told you ahead of time.

As for texts, I recommend starting here, I loved it.
