Youssef served for nearly ten years with the Haggai Institute, teaching courses in evangelism and church leadership, advancing to the position of Managing Director at the age of 31. He’d settle in Atlanta and in 1984 become a United States citizen.

Three years later, he founded The Church of The Apostles which currently serves a congregation of over 3,000 and is the launching pad for an international ministry, Leading The Way with Dr. Michael Youssef.

New Book:
The Third Jihad: Overcoming Radical Islam’s Plan for the West

Radical Islam has been waging war against our global civilization throughout history―and now, it’s closer than ever to American soil. Dr. Michael Youssef, a Coptic Christian who was born in Egypt and now leads a megachurch in America, knows from firsthand experience that radical Islamists have goals that many American Christians believe are “unthinkable.” In this book, he warns Western Christians that it doesn’t help to ignore what’s going on. There’s a third jihad underway, and its goal is to take over the West.

The Third Jihad is a call for Christians to defend their families, protect their nation, and boldly share the good news of Jesus with their communities―especially their Muslim neighbors.

Packed with surprising insights from history, compelling and dramatic stories, and a practical agenda that one person―or one church―can immediately put into practice to make a difference in the world. Rich in encouraging biblical principles and prophetic insights, The Third Jihad leads the reader to an empowering conclusion in our troubling (and even frightening) times.

Michael Youssef’s insights will inspire Christians to take their faith seriously, share their faith freely, and to truly be salt and light in a world of increasing darkness and decay.
