This weekend I received the advance copy of my new book on Islamophobia, which releases next week. It looks GREAT!

A lot of thought went into the cover. It features an Islamic geometric pattern of interlocking stars & crosses, an artistic motif that Christians also adopted.
The eight-pointed star has historically been a symbol of Islam, and the cross is a central symbol of the faith for Christians. The pattern is a Rorschach test of sorts—which symbol do you see first?
I also chose the pattern to symbolize the way our two faith communities are connected. Often we construct our identities over & against the other, but we also can recognize how much we need each other, how the beauty of one doesn't take away from that of the other.

We’re just a few months away from publication of my new book, #Islamophobia_WhatChristiansShouldKnow.
Here’s a thread to give you a chapter-by-chapter preview.
Full title: ‘Islamophobia: What Christians Should Know (and Do) about Anti-Muslim Discrimination.’ Will be published with @OrbisBooks in May 2021.
Intro: Why Christians are called to care about Islamophobia and why I have written this book. I address hesitancies and skepticism that some readers may have, and explain why this isn't an Islam 101 book.
