Next, among the top ten countries on the World Watch list, most of them are strongly Islamic. So, evangelism among the Muslim community worldwide has been a challenge. However, for Arab World Ministries, the light of Christ is being shared elsewhere. We spoke with one missionary, whom we'll call "Mark". His ministry is in France's Muslim community. "Mark" says despite the fact that France's Islamic population is more open to evangelism, they are faced with many obstacles. "A Muslim who would become a Christian from a Muslim point of view is a traitor-he's a traitor to God, he's a traitor to his country, he's a traitor to his family, to his ancestors, to his history, to all that is good, right and true. Many Muslims who become Christians feel a lot of pressure to conform to their former religion, to the people around them."
