Where have I been? How is it possible that might never have seen this course until now? Packaged in a cool binder, it includes 2 DVD’s, a companion study book, Leader’s notes, and a wealth of knowledge! It features Middle-Eastern-born Fouad Masri, the founder of Crescent Project, leading discussions, showing videos, teaching a whole course on this stuff. The sessions are made more interesting in that we’re not just watching a talking head for 45 minutes. There are small groups, one-on-one testimonies, and lots of cool topics… like “Islam Rising,” “Belief and Ritual,” and much more. You can even get the entire version in Spanish!!! Learn more at…
http://www.crescentproject.org
where you can also research ministry opportunities, workshops, and more. Great job, Fouad! :-)

You probably already know, but the e-mail version of this (via Yahoo Groups and Google Groups) has an error in the Crescent Project URL. Those have ….project.no rather than …project.org

Hit “Submit” too quickly — there are several other resources at the Crescent Project website that look useful. They also have podcasts available via the iTunes store — search for “crescent project”.

The book for this course is available as an eBook (PDF) from Lifeway for $9.95 . Each of the 6 video sessions is also available from Lifeway for download for personal use at $4.99 each .
The Crescent Project also has a 3-session online course called Sharing the Hope . It appears to be a combination of online and downloadable resources. ($35.00).

Bob — right you are. I’m sure it’s some kind of “This Present Darkness” kind of thing! :-) Kidding. We’ll do a correction in the next edition. Thanks.
