Speaker

Carl Medearis is an international expert in the field of Arab-American and Muslim-Christian relations.

He acts as a catalyst for a number of current movements in the Middle East to promote peacemaking, as well as cultural, political, and religious dialogue leading toward reconciliation. He is the author of multiple resources designed to help Christians talk about Jesus and relate to their Muslim neighbors, including: Muslims, Christians, and Jesus: Gaining Understanding and Building Relationships; Speaking of Jesus: The Art of Non-Evangelism; and Tea With Hezbollah: Sitting at the Enemies’ Table.

Carl, his wife Chris, and three kids have over 30 years of experience living, working, and traveling in the Middle East, including 12 years making their home in Beirut. Through their unique and strategic approach around the Arab world, they encouraged university students, business professionals and political leaders to live their lives by the principles and teachings of Jesus to change their societies and nations.

Today, Carl spends much of his time working with leaders both in the West and in the Arab world with the hope of seeing the Arab Middle East and the West experience full and fruitful relationships through the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth.
