Did Muhammad Believe In Women’s Rights?

Did Muhammad Believe In Women’s Rights?

Did Muhammad believe in women’s rights? The article I wrote for the Christian Research Journal broaches the subject and asks harder questions for this difficult subject matter. Christian Research Institute Director, Hank Hanegraaff (“The Bible Answer Man”), interviewed me today about this article. Click HERE for the link to the MP3.

Book Contract!

Book Contract!

Signing the contract for my first book! It’s now official and I wanted you to be the first to know. Thank you for all of your support and for reading this blog. Kregel Publications contacted me a couple of years back after I finally decided to start a blog. The story is worth telling, so here goes:

While working on my MA in Christian Apologetics at Biola University, my professor, Dr. Clay Jones, told the students that we were to have a dialogue with a non-believer. The manner in which we were to dialogue was given as an option. Option #1: Hold an email conversation discussing the evidence for the resurrection of Jesus. Option #2: Begin a blog. At first, I chose the email option mainly because I was apprehensive about putting my beliefs out there for anyone to critique. Soon, I became convicted and decided to take the plunge…so began this blog, Confident Christianity.

I have been challenged through the past few years by atheists, agnostics, and even fellow believers. Each pushes me to continue to learn and test what I believe to be true about reality. It has been one of the most rewarding experiences in my life. This Sunday, March 14th, brings another birthday. As another year passes, I find that I can think of no better thing I’d rather be doing with my life than what I am currently doing.

Confident Christianity is the result of much guidance and spiritual direction from many of my colleagues. With gratefulness I welcome the opportunity to put my thoughts to words. Your prayers and encouragement are felt and appreciated!

DEBATE VIDEO

DEBATE VIDEO

Many thanks to our friends at Acts17 Apologetics for posting the debate video for us, which can be viewed HERE. Mary Jo and I hope you gain many insights and will consider both sides of the argument no matter where you may stand on the issues. Overall, we believe you will be pleased with the civility and level of knowledge of both of these fine debaters as they looked at Women in the Qur’an and the Bible.

Be sure and link to “Answering Muslims” as you spread the word about the video. This is much appreciated. Also, both debaters would LOVE YOUR FEEDBACK. Please leave civil comments and try not to be too preachy.

Blessings!

Roger
