Training - The Engaging with Islam course
This is the training course for Engaging with Islam. You can do this course individually, as a church group, or as part of leadership training. Anyone can lead this course as no previous knowledge of Islam is required and leader's notes are provided. To run the course you need the DVD to show to the group, and a copy of the workbook for each participant.

Further Training
If you have just completed the Engaging with Islam course you may be thinking about what to do next. Here are some suggestions:
1. Keep learning the Bible and growing as a Christian. We need to know about Islam but to know Jesus. There is no use being an expert in Islam and an infant in your own faith. There is plenty of Bible teaching on this site.
2. Talk to Muslims. Don't be afraid. Trust God and talk to them as you would anyone else. Most Muslims are quite reasonable and keen to discuss things.
3. Run this course with a group of people. When you teach something you learn more about it, so run this course and you will be even more familiar with the issues.
5. Get familiar with the Answering Islam website.
6. Just get involved. There are many ministries happening for Muslims. Find out where these are in your area and get involved.
7. Other training courses.
