Understanding Modern Islam with Bernie Power
15 Oct 24 @ 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm
Join us for a free seminar about the opportunities for understanding and bridging the gap between Christians and Muslims.
Dr Bernie Power (Islam and Christian-Muslim Relations Lecturer at Melbourne School of Theology) and author of ‘Storyteller’ has spent four decades working with Muslims in Australia, Asia, and the Middle East. He has a deep heart to help Christians and Muslims understand more about each other and what they believe.
The number of Muslims in Brisbane has doubled in the past 15 years. In this ever-richer multicultural tapestry, there is a growing presence of Muslims involved in our society. A steady stream of immigrants, international students, and second-generation residents ensures this trend will continue well into the future. Increasingly, Islamic issues are in the headlines. Christians are also more likely than ever to encounter Muslims in work, study, or as our neighbours.  With this change, comes opportunity.
Tuesday October 15th 1pm-2.30pm at Trinity College Queensland, Level 1, 60 Bayliss Street, Auchenflower. Limited parking is available onsite as well as street parking (please get a parking pass from Trinity to display in your car if you park onsite).
Tea and coffee provided.
