In 1991, Estes had business dealings with a Muslim named Mohammed, from Egypt, introduced to him by his father. Although initially reluctant to work with the man, he was persuaded by his father to do so. He saw it as an opportunity to convert this new associate to Christianity. Mohammad told Estes that "if he could prove his religion was better than Islam", he would readily accept it. The opposite took place, and during his attempts to bring Mohammed over to becoming a Christian, Estes learned about the religion of Islam firsthand and thereafter converted to Islam.

At present he is the National Muslim Chaplain for American Muslims, sponsored by a number of organizations in Washington, DC and delegate to the United Nations Peace Summit for Religious Leaders.  He has travelled around the entire world lecturing and sharing the message of the Christ of the Qur'an in Islam.  He hold dialogs and discussion groups with all faiths and enjoy the opportunity to work alongside of rabbis, ministers, preachers and priests everywhere. Most of the work is in the institutional area, military, universities and prisons. • Primarily his goal is to educate and communicate the correct message of Islam and who the Muslims really are.  Although Islam has grown now to tie Christianity as the largest of religions on earth, he see many of those who claim Islam as Muslims, that do not correctly understand nor properly represent the message of "Peace, Surrender and Obedience to God" (Arabic = 'Islam').  Chaplain Estes is well known around the Muslim world for his efforts in bringing many new people to Islam. His articles on Islam in modern times, along with his work online with other Internet websites.
