Description

Grace, Truth & Boldness with Muslim Neighbors! - Episode #12 Summary of the episode: In this episode of The E.A.R. Podcast, host Brandon Queen is joined by Timothy Harris, author of Loving Your Muslim Neighbor, to explore deep and challenging topics from chapters 33-35 of the book. The conversation focuses on three key areas: balancing grace and truth in evangelism, reflecting Christ’s love in interactions with Muslim neighbors, and the importance of speaking out about faith rather than staying silent. The first segment discusses how being overly forceful in evangelism can push people away. Timothy emphasizes the importance of meeting people with grace and compassion, just as Jesus did with the woman caught in adultery. In the second segment, they dive into how Christians can reflect Christ’s love through respect and humility and explore the complexities of addressing difficult political topics like the Israeli/Palestinian conflict with compassion. Lastly, the episode tackles the challenge of staying bold in sharing the gospel, with Timothy urging Christians to resist the temptation to remain silent about their faith out of fear of offending others. Throughout the conversation, Timothy shares practical insights on servant evangelism, listening to the Holy Spirit, and building trust through love. The episode challenges listeners to live out their faith boldly and compassionately in a world of differing beliefs. Meet the Guest: Timothy and Miriam speak in churches everywhere to educate, equip, and energize Christians to gain God’s heart for Muslim people and to love them.

And we've been studying this for quite some time and we are making our way to the end. So these chapters bring up questions that really force us to reflect on how we live out our faith in today's world. So, Timothy, it is great to have you back with us, brother.

99.192 - 107.558 Timothy Harris

Thank you so much, Brandon. It's just a pleasure to be here. It's a real honor. And I'm looking forward to digging into your questions tonight.

108.718 - 137.687 Brandon Queen

Awesome. Awesome. Well, picking up on our last episode, you talked about a guy a few episodes back about a guy, you know, wanting to hit you and how you ended up just hugging him and just diffusing, you know, that situation. So we're going to start off with the first segment of our conversation today, and it's going to be chapter 33, which is titled, Can we both be right about what we believe?

138.788 - 171.2 Brandon Queen

So let's start off with. this chapter okay now we live in a world that is full of different beliefs and these questions come up a lot especially in our interactions with people of other faiths backgrounds such as muslims in a political world you know we have this thing where absolute truth is no longer truth it's your truth and my truth And nobody can refute my truth or I can't refute your truth.

172.081 - 181.406 Brandon Queen

So, Timothy, with that, let me ask you this. Have you seen examples of Christians being too forceful in evangelism?
