Emir Caner on God vs. Allah
Here is a really great article related to my post from back in November about defining whether or not someone believes in the true God or a false god. Emir Caner is a former Muslim, so he speaks mostly to the issue of God vs. Allah. Those who have encountered it will also pick up on the fact that he is subtly attacking the "camel method" of evangelizing Muslims that has become popular on the mission field, in which Christians call God "Allah" and use the Koran as a primary source to try to convince followers of Mohamed to honor Jesus. I have seen the Camel method in action first-hand on the mission field, and in my opinion someone like Caner needs to attack it outright and quit beating around the bush. I'll write about that some other time, though (probably). For now, go read Caner's article. Also keep in mind that he wrote this for a Southern Baptist publication, so he talks a lot about Southern Baptists.
