Discover the Power of Dialogue to Heal Religious Division
How can members of different faith traditions approach each
other with openness and respect? How can they confront the painful
conflicts in their history and overcome theological misconceptions?
For more than twenty years, Professors Mary C. Boys and Sara S. Lee
have explored ways that Catholics and Jews might overcome mistrust
and misunderstandings in order to promote commitment to religious
pluralism.
At its best, interreligious dialogue entails not simply learning
about the other from the safety of one s own faith community, but
rather engaging in specific learning activities with members of the
other faith learning in the presence of the other. Drawing upon
examples from their own experience, Boys and Lee lay out a
framework for engaging the religious other in depth. With vision
and insight, they discuss ways of fostering relationships among
participants and with key texts, beliefs and practices of the other
s tradition.
In this groundbreaking resource, they offer a guide for members
of any faith tradition who want to move beyond the rhetoric of
interfaith dialogue and into the demanding yet richly rewarding
work of developing new understandings of the religious other and of
one s own tradition.
