I think this is quite a popular view, and one that’s particularly popular in multi-faith, multi-cultural societies.
There’s a story which is quite old, which I find quite helpful just to think through some of the issues. It’s about some blind men and an elephant.
And each of the blind men encounters the elephant at different points, and then has a different idea about what the elephant is like. So the man who’s holding the trunk says: “The elephant’s like a snake.” And the guy holding the leg says: “No, the elephant’s not like a snake, elephants are like trees.” And the guy who’s holding the tusk says: “Well you’re both wrong, because an elephant is like a spear.”

We are thrilled to read remarkable stories of how people come to faith in Christ in dramatic and earth shaking ways. And we long for some kind of "Silver Bullet”—a perfectly pitched, unanswerable argument that will propel our friends to faith in Christ.
But the vast majority of those who are found by Christ do so after long years of unspectacular friendship, witness and prayer from faithful believers. And the truth is that some ground is harder to plough than others—much harder! Perhaps especially with Muslims.
In his recently published book Engaging with Muslims, author John Klaassen encourages us to think differently about how we view our witness to Muslim friends. He talks about moving from “Prayer” to “Presence”—spending time with Muslim friends—and then to “Proclamation” and “Persuasion” of the good news. In an illuminating chapter entitled Bridges to the Gospel, he writes:... continue reading
