Event - C-Cubed Book club Aug 22, 2019

C-Cubed will be holding it's next book club meeting on August 22, 2019 at the St. Cloud Public Library. We will meet in the Bremer room at 6:00 pm to discuss Inside Islam: A Guide for Catholics 100 Questions and Answers

Please note you do not need to be a Catholic to join in the conversation. This book was selected as it addresses important questions such as:
What is Islam?
What is the Koran?
What does the Koran teach about Jesus?
Why don't Muslims believe that Jesus died on the cross?
I have heard that Muslims have a high regard for Mary. Why is this?
Does Islam have a teaching authority similar to the Pope and Bishops?
Are there historical mistakes in the Koran? 


Here is Amazon's Description: 
"Inside Islam: A Guide for Catholics utilizes a popular question-and-answer format so that all Catholics both the theological novice and the well-catechized can learn the basics of Islam. Co-authors Robert Spencer and Daniel Ali, a convert from Islam, give you a solid understanding of Islam's unique teachings including:
  • The Islamic view of God
  • The role of Jesus in Islamic theology
  • Islam's controversial theology of jihad, or holy war
  • Why Islam's strong beliefs are so attractive to secularized Western societies
  • The role of women in Islam
Inside Islam is an essential resource for anyone who wants to know more about this historic religion from the Middle East. After reading this book, you will have a better understanding of the issues discussed every day in the news."

Please join us on Thursday at 6:00 for what we are sure will be an interesting and lively discussion.
Everyone is welcome!
