Although this book deals with missionary work, too, I am posting it because of its wealth of information on Islam.

This book was originally published by New Creations Publications, a publisher in Australia. It seems that it metamorphosed at some point into the New Creation Teaching Ministry. It's available now from their website, free, as a pdf.

This book is scarce today in physical form. It's listed at Amazon, but there are not even any third party sellers there who have it to sell. If you wanted a copy, and were not aware of the pdf on New Creation's website, the least that you probably could obtain a copy of the most recent edition for is $280.76 (http://www.bookfinder.com/search/?ac...and%2520beyond).

Title: Mission to Islam and Beyond: A Practical Theology of Mission.
Format: Pdf.
Author(s): Jens Christensen.
Publisher: New Creation Publications Inc.
Pages: xxii + 474.
Ebook Rating/Number of Reviews (Amazon): None.
Price: $0.00.
Lowest Price at Amazon if available there: N/A.
Book Description (From the Foreword by Geoffrey Bingham):
My wife, family and I lived and worked as missionaries of the Church Missionary Society (CMS) in Pakistan from the years 1957 to 1966. It was my privilege to know Bishop Jens Christensen, who was a Danish Lutheran Bishop working on the North-West Frontier . . . . My own knowledge of Jens Christensen was of a man who was a theologian of great calibre. I would say unhesitatingly that he towered above all others of us in the land. He was a man who worked most of his life amongst Muslims, suffering deep opposition to the point of great tragedy . . . . Some of us regard this particular book as of great theological and practical value for today. Few men have loved and understood the Muslim as did he. Few men have really understood the Christian gospel as did he. Those who really study this volume will find their theological knowledge increased, their insights deepened and their theology questioned . . . .
Comments: Originally entitled The Practical Approach to Muslims. This edition is the second edition (2001), the first having been published in 1977.
