Neighborly Faith

@AndrewTWalker @SBTS Congratulations, Dr. Walker!

Some exciting professional news to share: The Trustees of @SBTS have promoted me to full Professor as of August 1, 2026. I'm very grateful to my faculty and administrative colleagues for their vote of affirmation. baptistpress.com/resource-libra…

📣 NEW: Across the country, Muslim students are facing harassment from people claiming to follow Jesus -- testing the credibility of our witness on campus. When we defend them, we show that Jesus didn't come to condemn the world. neighborlyfaith.org/defendingmusli…

📣 NEW: Behind every hijab is a woman made in the image of God, and just like you, she deserves dignity, genuine friendship, and the hope found in Jesus Christ. neighborlyfaith.org/hijab

We just capped off an incredible season visiting Cru winter conferences in Indianapolis, Dallas, Orlando, and SoCal, inviting hundreds of students into conversations with Muslims. Special thanks to our Muslim friends around the country who generously hosted us.

📣 NEW: When Christians and Muslim students meet for dinner, faith conversations and friendships come easy. If your campus ministry is looking for a low-lift way to do outreach, dinner with Muslim students is a great option. Here's how to make it happen. neighborlyfaith.org/campusministry…

📣 NEW: A new national survey from @TheISPU sheds light on what Muslim Americans really think. For Christians seeking to live out the command to love neighbor, this data offers both challenge and opportunity. ​ Learn more: neighborlyfaith.org/fivethings

NEW: Some Christian influencers have been especially vocal against Muslims lately — endangering how believers see and treat their Muslim neighbors. ​ Let’s talk about what they get wrong — not just about Islam, but about Christianity. neighborlyfaith.org/whatinfluencer…

Christian (Cru) students enjoyed their visits to @IrvingMasjid and @icylmasjid over the last few weeks with NF. Great questions, deep faith conversations, and fun were had by all!

We’re here with @crutweets in Dallas today, co-presenting on “Understanding and Connecting with Muslims” Tomorrow we’re excited to visit @IrvingMasjid!

We loved visiting @ISNAHQ with 50 students attending Cru's Winter Conference in Indianapolis! Students learned more about Islam and strategies for outreach, and circled up to discuss faith topics with local Muslims from the Indianapolis area.

What is Christian Nationalism? Is it a threat? Or is it an overhyped media phenomenon? In this Influence Podcast, George P. Wood talks to Kevin Singer, @RyanBurge, and @MDH_GFU about @NeighborlyFaith's new report on Christian nationalism. influencemagazine.com/en/podcast/wha…

Last October, @YasmineTaeb visits Westmont College to talk about introductory course on political theory.

Faith and the Politics of Deep Difference. Speaking @WheatonCollege with @shadihamid #ZealotsPod @NeighborlyFaith @commentmag @fullerseminary

@saeedkhan1967 visitsGordon College to talk about history and current status of Muslims in India.

My latest for @usatodayopinion: As a Baptist, I oppose Christian nationalism but new research by @NeighborlyFaith demonstrates that the threat is overstated. Using the term as a pejorative against basic civic duty is unhelpful: usatoday.com/story/opinion/…

Last October NF took a group of Christian college students to one of the largest gatherings of Muslims in the USA: the ISNA convention @ISNAHQ Our hosts were incredibly welcoming and fielded some amazing questions from students.
