Why I Love Jesus is an autobiographical book authored by Walid Shoebat, published in 2012. It details Shoebat's claimed personal journey from being a radical Muslim and alleged former terrorist involved in anti-Israel activities to his conversion to Evangelical Christianity. The narrative emphasizes themes of redemption, the transformative power of faith in Jesus Christ, and critiques of Islam, positioning Shoebat's story as a testimony to the love and grace of Jesus. The book is part of Shoebat's broader work as a Christian activist and speaker, often used in evangelical circles to promote conversion stories and warnings about radical Islam. The publication has been controversial due to questions about the veracity of Shoebat's claims, with critics alleging fabrications in his backstory, including unverified terrorist involvement. Investigations by outlets like The New York Times (2006 article) and others have raised doubts, leading to accusations of Shoebat exploiting his narrative for financial gain through speaking fees and book sales. Despite this, the book remains popular among certain Christian audiences for its inspirational content.
