Эта книга служит двум различным целям. Во-первых, она предназначена для общения с мусульманами и содержит диалоги на широкий круг духовных тем, раскрывающих более глубокие смыслы, о которых большинство мусульман не задумывается, наблюдая за такими практиками, как милостыня, пост или обрезание. Во-вторых, книга является справочником или моделью для христиан в поиске точек соприкосновения для конструктивных диалогов с людьми из исламской среды. Упомянутые темы особенно актуальны в мусульманских контекстах, в то время как некоторые другие «точки соприкосновения» касаются конкретных вопросов в определенных культурах, таких как использование традиционных центральноазиатских ковров как моста для обсуждения Иисуса. Другие темы касаются общечеловеческих вопросов, таких как страдания, воспитание детей или деятельность ангелов, которые могут быть интересны людям практически любой культуры. Книга основана на опыте автора общения с мусульманами в Центральной Азии и Кавказе. Не существует единого подхода, подходящего для всех, поэтому эта книга предлагает репертуар возможных подходов, которые можно использовать в конкретных обстоятельствах при общении с людьми из мусульманской среды.
