"The interfacing of the Christian Gospel and Islam triggers conversations in most countries I travel, as political, social, and religious issues raise concerns over how these faith-driven convictions can live together. Dr. Wahba's invaluable service is in his laying out the basic factors, historically, the intertwining of faith and politics and in their respective core beliefs. This is a must-read for those seeking to understand these two major and global faiths."

"This is the book I want for an overview into Islam's interaction with Christianity through the centuries followed by contemporary insights into current beliefs and practices. My interest is piqued based on the logical and informative organization of the historical features in lockstep eras as well as how the Muslim world regards its mission and agenda in the twenty-first century. This is bundled in the trusted knowledge through personal and academic experience by Wahba and the superb writing style which endears itself to students in their quest to grasp its relevance."

"Wafik Wahba's Global Christianity and Islam is a comprehensive work that briefly and objectively covers the encounter between Christianity and Islam on different dimensions, in particular the theological differences. It is a must-read for any scholar who needs an introductory work on Christian-Islamic comparative studies."

"In our fragmented and polarized world, mutual respect and understanding between Muslims and Christians are more important than ever. To navigate the terrain where they encounter one another, you could not hope for a more trustworthy interpreter than Wafik Wahba. Fair, balanced, sympathetic, patient, irenic, concise, and clear—this is an indispensable guide for all who travel the frontiers of Christian-Muslim relations."

"In this breathtaking study of global Christianity and Islam, Wafik W. Wahba delivers a sweeping account of the history, politics, and beliefs of Christianity and Islam as global religions. As an Egyptian Christian who teaches in North America, Wahba is uniquely positioned to tell this story, and he does so to great effect. This is a 'must-read' for any Christian who wants to think better about Islam today."

"In this sweeping, masterful study of Christian-Muslim interactions spanning thirteen centuries, Wafik W. Wahba provides a compelling analysis of the impact of historical developments, sociopolitical dynamics, and religious beliefs on past and current Christian-Muslim relations globally. Wahba is an eminently qualified guide in this exploration, a distinguished, Arabic-speaking theologian who, for thirty years, has studied and taught Christian-Muslim relations all over the globe. This is a meticulously researched, scholarly text, yet also highly readable and accessible to anyone seeking greater understanding of the world's two largest religions. Wahba's respectful, irenic tone beautifully embodies the book's stated aim—to better understand and communicate with the religious other and find a path to a peaceful future."
