The Truth About Islam

One of the groups that we want to reach out to are muslims, and today, a story on Yahoo! News really hit home:

This breaks my (Bob) heart, as it does Janell's, as the innocence of childhood is snatched from these children in the name of islam, because satan has clouded their minds with false hopes and lies. I have begun studying more and more about islam, in an effort to try and win these people to Christ. Islam has a near death grip across northern Africa, and is obviously spreading rapidly across the globe. Although the above story is from western Africa, and we are planning to go to eastern Africa, it has a very real presence there, too, especially on the coastal areas, where it is definitely the dominant religion.

I would ask that you pray for both Janell and I, that we might effectively minister the Gospel to these folks who so desperately need to hear the real truth.
