Palestine Christianity

Shorroish is an Arab-Christian who was born in Nazareth, Palestine, and fled into Jordan in 1948 during the Israel War for Independence. Initially he hated the Israelis, because his family believed that they needed to flee the West Bank into Jordan proper. His family thought the Arabs would defeat Israel and thereby his family could return, but the Arabs failed. He became a "born again Christian" and joined a Christian evangelical movement in Jordan, before moving to the U.S. This book is about Mr. Shorrosh's life in his struggle in becoming a Christian minister, his marriage, his missionary activities in India and Palestine, and his development of a ministry. He eventually overcame his hatred of Israel, and worked to build reconciliation between Muslims and Jews. This book is a very personal, at times wrenching regarding his difficulties, but very uplifting. He wrote several books, the most informative being: "Islam Revealed."
