Well, welcome back to another episode of the Ear podcast. I'm your host, Brandon Queen. And today we're joined by a special guest, a good friend of mine, Timothy Harris. And we're diving right back into some powerful, challenging topics based on his book, Loving Your Muslim Neighbor. Now, if you have a copy of this book, we will be in chapters 33 to 35 of the book.

And we've been studying this for quite some time and we are making our way to the end. So these chapters bring up questions that really force us to reflect on how we live out our faith in today's world. So, Timothy, it is great to have you back with us, brother.

Awesome. Awesome. Well, picking up on our last episode, you talked about a guy a few episodes back about a guy, you know, wanting to hit you and how you ended up just hugging him and just diffusing, you know, that situation. So we're going to start off with the first segment of our conversation today, and it's going to be chapter 33, which is titled, Can we both be right about what we believe?

So we're going to start off with the first segment of our conversation today, and it's going to be chapter 33, which is titled, Can we both be right about what we believe?

So let's start off with. this chapter okay now we live in a world that is full of different beliefs and these questions come up a lot especially in our interactions with people of other faiths backgrounds such as muslims in a political world you know we have this thing where absolute truth is no longer truth it's your truth and my truth And nobody can refute my truth or I can't refute your truth.

So, Timothy, with that, let me ask you this. Have you seen examples of Christians being too forceful in evangelism?

So, Timothy, with that, let me ask you this. Have you seen examples of Christians being too forceful in evangelism?

Awesome. That is a perfect example of how I've seen people push their way through. And I've seen it with not Christians sharing with Muslims. I've just seen it with, you know, people on the street corners. And look, I respect the street preachers and some of them, you know, they do it for the right reason. They do it to bring about God's grace and also the truth.

But then I see some that are just out there to harass people. And they end up pushing people away and they forget about the balance that the gospel is supposed to bring.

Oh, gosh, yes.

Oh, gosh, yes.

Wow.

Wow.

Right. So my question would be, do you focus more on truth or grace?
