A Christian Approach to Muslims: Reflections from West Africa - Paperback
by James Paul Dretke (Author)
Reflections from West Africa
A Christian Approach to Muslims: Reflections from West Africa endeavors to isolate some of the communication problems that beset Christians and Muslims. The book's finding is that the primary distinction between Christianity and Islam rests in the attitude of each towards the Law of God, and the practice which grows out of this understanding. For Islam, the shari'a is central; for Christianity, it is the gospel.
James Dretke, former director of the Islam-in-Africa Project, had long experience in Muslim Africa, especially Ghana, and in this book, he reflects creatively on the theme of a Christian approach.
Mr. Dretke is a graduate of Concordia Seminary, St. Louis. He has done graduate work at the Kennedy School of Missions (Hartford), the University of Ghana, Southern Methodist University, the University of California at Los Angeles, and Fuller Seminary. In addition, he has studied Arabic and French at the Institute of Ghana Languages, and German at the Goethe Institute, Accra. Dr. Dretke, a native of Manawa, Wisconsin, is married to Barbara Biar of Dallas, Texas. They are the parents of five children.
