In A Muslim’s Defense of Jesus, Esma Ali opens a window for readers to her intimate inquiry into spirituality, sense of self, and strength. The book reflects the fruit of more than a decade of Bible study and meditation and presents a fresh angle on where the Abrahamic religions Islam Christianity, and Judaism intersect and diverge. Esma discusses difficult topics like confirmation bias and the microscopic vision that may result in religious fanaticism. It is an inspiring invitation to reflect on the world we live in, to embrace diversity, and to employ our intellect in the pursuit of genuine understanding.
