clear, new learnings in every lesson
I listen to a lot of these courses, and this was the best I heard this year. Dr. Reynolds is clear, answers the kind of questions I have about Islam, and most of the information was basic but new to me. The information could be summed as “What would be most important for a Christian to know about Islam.”

Objective and most informative.
To be truly “Catholic” we need to be aware of other traditions from a fair and respectful perspective. We are living in a global village, and we need to know the neighbors…! Objective and most informative, this program not only presented Islam, but contrasted it with Christianity fairly and honestly.

Presentation is lively and intelligent!
The presenter is obviously very competent. His presentation is lively and intelligent. His Catholic faith shines through. He makes a great effort to be even-handed. This is truly a scholarly presentation by a first-rate teacher.

Reynold’s presentation on Christianity and Islam is a huge contribution to understanding among faiths.
Given national ignorance and fear regarding Islam, the Reynolds presentation on Christianity and Islam is a huge contribution to understanding among faiths.

I leaned much
I had read several books about Islam and this course gave me more insights than any of them. I highly recommend it.

Very sensitive and timely
Given our national and international concern with Jihadists like ISIS, I found two studies on Islam and Christianity and the Bible & the Koran to be very sensitive and timely. Prof. Gabriel S. Reynolds is an excellent scholar of these programs. These studies enter in a very important discussion about similarities and differences between two world religions.

Dr. Reynolds is well prepared and easy to follow. I knew virtually nothing about Islam and nothing about a comparison between the two; now I know!
