Here from pastor John Piper is a clear, thoughtful explanation of what the Pope Benedict XVI said about Islam, and how to think about it as a follower of Jesus.

Interesting points… Point 7 seems to be lacking, persuading is not all that Jesus calls us to do and I actually think it doesn't seem to be very effective. If by persuasion he means letting people into your lives, caring for them, laying hands on and praying for them, and letting the Holy Spirit transform them… basically doing the works and speaking the words of Jesus… then I agree. But if he means presenting a good persuasive agrument for believing in Jesus, I don't think that cuts it anymore.
