Since 9/11, terms like “Islam,” “Muslim,” and “Qur’an” have been common in the news—but how many non-Muslim Americans truly know what the Qur’an is or what it contains? How long is it? Did you know Jesus is a central figure? What does it say about women, war, and violence? How does it compare to the Bible?

Join biblical scholar and archaeologist Nate Ramsayer for an accessible exploration of Islam’s sacred text. No prior knowledge required—bring your questions. As part of this month’s series on the three Abrahamic faiths, this lecture adopts a religiously neutral, literary approach and welcomes people of all faiths and none.
