Friendship First
The Friendship First course is an interactive, non-specialist course in six-sessions. It enables Christians to approach their Muslim friends with confidence by equipping them with the skill and resources needed to be an effective witness to Jesus Christ.
Growing from a response to the 9/11 and 7/7 attacks, the Friendship First course was written by Interservers in Britain and has been invaluable to workers in Australia as well. It has transformed the way Christians relate the gospel to the Muslims they come into contact with.

Joining the Family
Today growing numbers of Muslims are choosing to follow Jesus Christ. They want to join Christ’s community. We need to understand their needs, care for them and help them grow in Christ. This book equips churches to meet this need. It is part of the unique Joining the Family initiative which also includes a website and six session discussion course.

Come Follow Me
Muslim people worldwide are turning to Jesus. This course helps Christ’s followers of Muslim background to grow in their new faith with the help of a mentor or advisor.
Course participants grow through a powerful combination of self-study, regular discussion (one-to-one or in a group) and practical learning tasks. Deep level discipleship affects issues of belonging (e.g. to old and new communities), issues of worldview (e.g. fatalism, revenge, good deeds) and issues of behaviour (e.g. marriage relationships, conflict resolution). All these topics (and more) are tackled in this course, with the framework of an inductive study of 1 Peter.
The Advisor’s Guide introduces the mentor to cultural issues for discipling believers of Muslim background, and it provides lesson-by-lesson discussion guidelines, hands-on activities, and audio-visual tools.
Come Follow Me is from the resource called Joining the Family.
