Come for a historical review of the Koran within the context of Muhammad's life, and learn how it has influenced the beliefs and actions of Muslims through the centuries. Led by St. Andrew member Ed Kauffman, who has spent many years working in and studying Islamic life and culture. (2 sessions, Feb 8 & 15)
