The Most Comprehensive Curriculum Available on Christian Missions to Muslims and Islamic Studies

Islam has grown from 230 million to 1.9 billion Muslims in the last 100 years and studies show that by 2050 Islam will most likely bypass global Christianity as the largest global religion. Muslims are by far the largest unreached peoples on earth who have not heard the gospel of Jesus Christ. Almost 40 percent of all the unreached people of the world are Muslims. 86 percent of Muslims globally do not personally know a Christian, and every 24 hours 37,000 Muslims die without the gospel of Jesus Christ.

However, the harvest is plentiful! Missiologists have confirmed that in the last 20 years there have been at least 94 unique large movements of Muslims coming to Christ! In other words more Muslims have come to Christ in the last two decades than in all history combined! But the laborers are few—there is only 1 missionary for every 420,000 Muslims!The answer to the challenge of global Islam is a discipled and trained church that loves Jesus Christ. We need a strategic, Holy Spirit-led plan to train and equip all churches to labor to finish the great commission among Muslims.

TRAINING THE GLOBAL CHURCH

We have identified and video recorded some of the best

global teachers on Christian missions to Muslims and

Islamic studies.

We are in the process of overdubbing the courses into

80 languages.

We are launching these courses globally in multiple ways. - Live training conferences - Church-based training initiatives - Various online training platforms - Social media engagement - Phone apps - Satellite broadcast

We use the training to launch large-scale national evangelistic and discipleship initiatives among Muslims.

We have formed training partnerships with some of the

largest denominations and church networks in various

countries in Asia, Africa, and South America.

“My name is Muhammad. I am an ex-imam Muslim from Iraq. Now I am a missionary to Muslims. My friend from Egypt sent me the MMWU videos to see what I thought since I was a former imam. When I watched Dr. Joshua Lingel teach the oldest Islamic history, I was so happy! It is the truth! It is perfect! It explains it better than I was ever able to. Now I send people to train through these video courses!”- Muhammad (former imam from Iraq)

“I don't know if there is a more strategic ministry involved in our world now than the ministry to reach the Muslims. That is why I am wholly behind i2 Ministries’ vital and important training program. I anticipate many gifted scholars and practitioners benefiting from the depth of insight, the demands of the curriculum, and the impact of the vision.”

“Having personally reviewed the teaching materials, I can see that these resources created are essential to equip and train leaders on and off the

field… There is no ministry that provides better training in churches for ministry to Muslims than the i2 Ministries MMWU courses.”

“i2 Ministries’ MMWU is remarkably qualified to train people to communicate effectively with the Muslim world in a way that very few other groups are taking initiative.”

E N D O R S E M E N T S

“As the Iron Curtain fell in the twentieth century, so the Islamic curtain shielding the Muslim world from the proclamation of the Gospel is destined to fall in the twenty-first. The courses contained in i2 Ministries’ curriculum will help to equip churches and individuals to reach Muslims effectively with the life-changing message of Christ.”

“The i2 Ministries MMWU video training offers a solid way for the church to be prepared to evangelize Muslims and interact with their objections to the

faith. This strategic ministry of i2 Ministries meets a vital need in the church —make use of what it offers.”

RADICAL EVANGELISM TO MUSLIMSDr. Jay Smith

SESSIONS IN THIS COURSE 1. Introduction to Muslim Evangelism 2. Understanding Islam’s Beliefs and Practices 3. Islam and Christianity Compared – “Hermeneutical Key” 4. Muhammad – A Christian Critique 5. The Bible – A Christian Apologetic 6. Confident Christianity: In Seven Areas vs. Islam 7. Khilafah Verses the Kingdom of God 8.

The Question Post 9/11 & 7/7 9. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s) 10. The Attraction of Islam 11. Missiological Methodologies Post 9/11

COURSE DESCRIPTION "Radical" means to go back to the root. In Islam this means to go back to the Seventh Century violence of Muhammad, Allah, and the early Muslim conquests. In Christianity, however, it means to be devoted followers of Jesus, Paul, and the first century church’s great commission. Radical Evangelism to Muslims means to love Muslims enough to be a faithful witness to the gospel to them in our modern day. Christian apologist Jay Smith communicates the reality of resurgent Islam and its impact on the Church's witness to the Muslim world. This course attempts to equip Christians with tools to answer the most pressing questions of our day.

PROFESSOR Born and raised in a Shi'ite Muslim home in Iran, Sasan came to faith in Christ as a result of American missionaries he met in Europe. He has been involved in ministering to Iranians for more than 20 years and is currently active in producing theological resources and promoting leadership development for the growing Iranian Church worldwide. Dr. Tavassoli graduated from Reformed Theological Seminary (MA), Columbia Theological Seminary (ThM), and earned his PhD in Islamic Studies from the University of Birmingham, UK.

COURSE DESCRIPTION “Christian and Islamic Theological Issues” presents a concise 11-hour explanation of these two very different world-views.  Dr. Tavassoli compares the concepts of God, man, Christ, and the Scriptures in each worldview, and explains how these differences can be confronted when speaking with our Muslim neighbors.  Presented from the unique perspective of a former Muslim, this class is sure to

reveal an inside look into the theological differences between the two faiths.

This course is a survey of the major areas in which Christian and Islamic theology, doctrine, and dogma collide. The content of this course will also provide an important

Roland Muller does a masterful job of bringing these three challenges together in one course addressing the Muslim mission field. Roland Muller speaks as a practitioner to practitioners, illustrating his points with examples drawn from a wide variety of backgrounds. This course is essential for all cross-cultural missions among Muslims.

COURSE DESCRIPTION This Insider Movements course was filmed at a conference held at Liberty University on October 1-3, 2010, to discuss a missionary strategy referred to as Insider Movements and its radical form of contextualization. Missionaries, missiologists, professors, and theologians gathered together for three days to present papers that assess insider movements from a biblical and missiological perspective. Discussions range from scholars to field practitioners to the local church. You’ll hear from 14 presenters and their critiques of certain assumptions and tactics of Insider Movement missiology. At the conclusion of the course, we are confident that you will agree with Dr. Jeff Morton that that IM stands for “Inappropriate Missiology.”

THEOLOGY OF THE OLD TESTAMENTDr. David Talley

SESSIONS IN THIS COURSE 1. Understanding the Old Testament: The “Story Line” 2. Genesis: a Story of Degeneration and Restoration 3. Exodus: God Reveals Himself So He Can Be Known 4. Covenant and Sacrifice: The Offer and Means of Grace 5. Numbers: God Reveals Himself to Produce Belief 6. Joshua/Judges 1: God Provides the Land and Abounds

in Grace 7. Joshua/Judges II: Grace Exteneded Even in the Midst

of Rebellion 8. Samuel: The Destructiveness of Sin and Preservation

through Grace 9. The Books of Kings: Idolatry - Living as if God is NOT 10. Ezra/Nehemiah: A Glance toward Grace to Come

COURSE DESCRIPTION When the Old Testament is read quickly, God can be seen as wrathful, vengeful, and against humanity. But when the story is studied more carefully, looking at man’s harmful actions to himself and our rebellion against God and our own best interest, His ways make more sense. The continuous story of the Old Testament is contained in eleven books. When these books are studied in succession, the grace of God pours forth as the prevailing theme. Dr. Talley argues that rather than finding a wrathful God who arbitrarily deals out judgement, what we find is the core message of a God who loves, pursues, and gives grace to sinful humanity. This story is the epic battle which leads ultimately to the climax of God’s love, the revealing of the Messiah, who is God Himself—Jesus. This is a helpful course for Christians from a Muslim background to understand the Biblical narrative of grace.

COURSE DESCRIPTION The unfolding conflict between Islam and the West is not just a clash of cultures—it is a head-to-head confrontation between a religion intent on world dominance and a culture confused and unsettled by rising hatred and violence. In this revealing course Wagner, an experienced Christian missionary to the Muslim world, examines the rapid worldwide growth of Islam and credits it to a well-financed missions strategy. This “loose strategy” is advanced through three tactical methods:  jihad  (holy

war), Da’wah (missions), and mosques (presence). His conclusions about Islam’s growth, which is neither spontaneous nor accidental, should spur Christians on to become much more

active in living out their faith and proclaiming the truth found in Jesus Christ.

His explanation of the relationship between Christian end-time prophecy and Islamic expectations of world domination has shocked readers and revolutionized eschatological expectations. He also builds a case for an Islamic Antichrist systematically from Biblical exegesis and proves the long awaited system of the Antichrist is even now before us and knocking at our door. Through a highly-scholarly, theologically-grounded, yet simple presentation, Richardson thoroughly corrects the objections of critics, establishing the Biblical case for an Islamic Antichrist.
