About Medina Focus
From the publisher's feed
This podcast is a project of the MEDINA focus with the goal of providing space for collaboration and community among practitioners to the Muslim Diaspora in North America.
As people around the world have immigrated to the West many Christians have realized that they live and work in the midst of the nations and they often feel alone and unprepared to communicate cross-culturally. If you are looking for conversation and community surrounding issues of loving Muslim friends in Jesus name, we welcome you into the conversation.
