The Institute of Middle East Studies (IMES) is pleased to announce that new content for our blog will be arriving this November 2017. We have been under construction these last few weeks, and as such ask your forgiveness in the delay of our relaunch. But, our team of respected scholars, experienced practitioners, student researchers and knowledgeable staff will return soon to address important topics and critical events significant to the MENA region prophetically, sensitively and in a non-partisan manner for the purpose of carrying out the IMES mandate to bring about positive transformation in thinking and practice between Christians and Muslims in the Middle East and beyond.
