In a world that increasingly sees religion as a source of violence,
this book explores resources from within religious traditions that
might help build peace. Drawing from the rich textual histories of
Christianity and Islam, the contributors mine their faith
traditions for ways of thinking and ways of being that help shift
perceptions about religion, and actively contribute to the growth
of peace in our troubled times. Not content with retreat into
religious exclusivism, these essays are an act of sharing something
held dear. In sharing, the thing offered no longer remains the
possession of the one who offers, and so these essays are an act of
vulnerability and trust-building. In sharing precious things
together, in giving and receiving, peace becomes not only a matter
of dialogue, but also shared commitments to ways of being.
