Can contextualization obscure the gospel and prevent new believers from obeying Jesus? And can a well-intentioned teaching tool muddy the waters in this missions related question? The answer is yes and yes.
Many Muslims hate the idea of the Trinity because they do not understand it. What can we do to address this problem?
Was Muhammad a man of peace who led a religion of peace? See the answer yourself in the Quran and the Hadiths.
After Muslim terrorists crashed into the Twin Towers on September 11, 2001, New York vowed to "Never Forget." And now they have an Islamic mayor who has sympathies with those who are terrorist adjacent. How did we get here?
"Islam is a religion of violence"—is this a hurtful stereotype or essential archetype? What does Islam's most holy book, the Quran, say?
How do you contextualize your evangelism to muslims? By confronting them.
Was Muhammad the ideal husband? How many wives did he have, how did he treat them, and how does he commend other husbands to treat their wives?
Muslim propaganda assures us that "Islam is a religion that protects women." But the Quran, and especially Surah 4:34, would like to correct the historical record.
There are three Muhammads: the Muhammad of tradition, the Muhammad of legend, and the Muhammad of history. Christians ought know all of them to engage their Muslim neighbors.
Muslims say our Bibles are corrupted and inconsistent, but it's really just the message they hate.

Jesus Christ reigns over all things, and this podcast exists to help people see the reality and ramifications of this truth. We post at least four times a month: Twice, we will read aloud a longform essay from our monthly theme. And twice, we will discuss each essay with its author and another Christian leader. Listen in to live in light of Christ’s Lordship.
In keeping with our vision to edify the church with evergreen content, our website is organized around monthly themes. These themes may focus on the Bible, theology, church, or culture. Over the course of the year we cover all these vital areas. There is a place for real-time responsiveness to cultural and evangelical controversy, but monthly themes do not focus on that priority. Rather, we plan our themes months in advance, curating a stable of writers with tailored assignments. Our hope is to foster mature and biblically-grounded reflection. To that end, with acknowledgement that all we plan is subject to God’s will, here are Christ Over All’s upcoming themes.
Christ Over All is a ministry that aspires to edify the church with evergreen content that will help the church think in biblical categories and apply Christ’s preeminence to all areas of life. In an age where the internet is often hyper-reactive and hostile, we will take a different path.
