About this sermon
How should Christians respond to Islamic extremism and the fear it creates? In this message, Pastor Adam Hamilton walks through the origins of Islam, the Sunni-Shia divide, and what actually motivates groups like ISIS, then makes the case for a different kind of response: loving our Muslim neighbors instead of giving in to suspicion. Drawing from Romans 12 ("do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good"), Adam explains why ISIS is fighting a war of narratives, not just a military war, and why how we treat the Muslims in our own community may matter more than any policy debate. It's an honest, historically grounded look at a hard topic, and a challenge to let our actions, not our fear, tell the story of what Christians actually believe. In this message: - The origins of Islam and the life of Muhammad - Sunni and Shia Islam, explained - The five pillars of Islam - The Sykes-Picot Agreement and the roots of modern conflict - What ISIS actually believes, with Lt.

Brian Steed - Why ISIS is fighting a war of narratives - How Christians are called to respond Subscribe for weekly messages from Church of the Resurrection, and find service times and locations at https://resurrection.church/worship. #IslamicExtremism #ChristianFaith #AdamHamilton #Romans12 #ChurchOfTheResurrection #Sermon #LoveYourNeighbor
