Understanding our religious neighbors is more important than
ever-but also more challenging. In a world of deep religious strife
and increasing pluralism it can seem safer to remain inside the
"bubble" of our faith community. Christian college campuses in
particular provide a strong social bubble that reinforces one's
faith identity in distinction from the wider society. Many
Christians worry that engaging in interfaith dialogue will require
watering down their faith and accepting other religions as equally
true. Bethel University professors Marion Larson and Sara Shady not
only make the case that we can love our religious neighbors without
diluting our commitment, but also offer practical wisdom and ideas
for turning our faith bubbles into bridges of religious inclusion
and interfaith engagement. Drawing on the parables of Jesus,
research on interreligious dialogue, and their own classroom
experience, Larson and Shady provide readers with the tools they
need to move beyond the bubble. Interfaith dialogue is difficult,
and From Bubble to Bridge is the timely guide we have been waiting
for.
