Our History
Good News for the Crescent World has been established by Dr. Samuel Shahid
as a response to the arrival of the enormous numbers of Muslims to our
communities.The new situation imposed the need to provide theological training
and serious attempts to understand Islam in order to have an effective Christian
witness to Muslims in the United States.
Since its inception in 1987, GNFCW has instructed and trained numerous
of Church congregations, missionaries, Christian students and groups
in the understanding of Islamic beliefs and how to witness effectively to
Muslims.
For the last 28 years, GNFCW has utilized many means, including personal
contacts, literature distribution, media, satellite, and evangelistic material to
reach the Muslims and ultimately to win them to Christ.
Today GNFCW gives thanks to the Lord for the hundreds of conferences, seminars, and workshops that they have conducted, the thousands of Christians
who have received training, and the large number of Muslims who have converted
to the Christian faith through the ministry of GNFCW.
