So, what’s behind the Muslim love and reverence for Jesus (‘Ēsa in Arabic) and Mary (Maryam)? This book sets out to answer this vital question while comparing the Jesus of ...

And then there is the world of her dreams: going to film school and living in New York City - and maybe, just maybe, pursuing a boy she's known from afar her entire life who's suddenly falling into her orbit at school.
