I Visited a Mosque for the First Time – Here’s What Happened
Today I share my honest experience visiting a mosque for the very first time. From the moment I stepped inside, I was struck by the overwhelming sense of community, the beauty of the call to prayer, and even some surprising similarities to Christian church services. I talk about what I saw, what I learned, and how the experience challenged my assumptions.

In this video, I discuss:

My first impressions walking into a mosque

The call to prayer and Friday sermon

Surprising similarities between mosque services and Protestant/Catholic worship

A powerful Islamic story about God’s mercy – and how it compares to the Catholic understanding of forgiveness

Why love and respect should be at the center of interfaith conversations

Whether you’re Christian, Muslim, or just curious, I hope my visit encourages more respectful dialogue and mutual understanding.
