Taking the theme of learning as central to the responsible practice
of interfaith dialogue, Michael Barnes discusses a Christian
spirituality which builds on virtues of hospitality and the
welcoming of other traditions, whilst maintaining the importance of
difference and particularity in the search for meaning. Each
chapter explores how faith grows as a person crosses a threshold
into another religious world and learns sensitivity to echoes of
the known in the unknown. Encounters with the religious other,
refracted through texts, conversations, artefacts and places, are
used to illustrate the ancient Patristic theme of 'seeds of the
Word'. Cumulatively they show that faith which learns how to engage
imaginatively with another religious world constantly returns to
the 'home' tradition, reinvigorated in its appreciation of the
other. This book contributes to current comparative theology
studies, using a theological approach to interreligious studies
complementary to one based on the experience of interpersonal
relations.
