Literally this is the decadence of Christianity in the west. So many people support false ministries on the TV's that the local churches can barely pay their bills and do things such as this.

Some American churches have taken a controversial step to reach out to their Muslim neighbors.

At least two congregations received national attention recently after they opened their doors to local Muslims, letting them use their church buildings to hold Muslim worship services.

Dr. Carlos Campo, president of Regent University, sorted through the implications of sharing worship space and discussed the best ways to display Christian outreach, on the Jan. 24 edition of the CBN News Channel Morning News. Click play to watch.

Muslims made major headlines last year when they tried to build a mosque near Ground Zero, the site of the Sept. 11 terror attacks in New York City, and a mega-mosque in the heart of the Bible belt in Murfreesboro, Tenn.

In Alexandria, Va., a local Islamic center decided to build its own mosque. In the meantime, it asked the Aldersgate Methodist Church if it could use its building for Friday prayers.

"I feel like we are embodying Christianity by being welcoming," said Diane Bechtol, a member of Aldersgate Methodist.
