Book Review of I Dared to Call Him Father: The Miraculous Story of a Muslim Woman's Encounter With God

reviewed on + 3558 more book reviews


I just finished this book.It was very interesting.It is about a rich, prominent Pakastani Muslim woman who becomes a Christian. In Pakistan 95% of the population is Muslim, the other 5 % is other religions including Christian. The Christians tend to be generic because there are so few of them.
There is an error in this book. The author is talking about "hidden believers". As an example she talks about Nicodemus coming to Jesus once as a secret believer then the Bible no longer mentioning NIcodemus. This is incorrect. IN John 19:38-40 , Joseph of Arimethea and Nicodemus come and get Jesus' body to bury it.Many people would have seen them from the Biblical accounts. The high priests' spies and Romans were everywhere.
