This book calls attention to ways of fostering dialogue among
members of different religious traditions in an era of cultural and
religious pluralism. To achieve this, the author analyzes the
results of an ethnographic study of Ihievbe, a town in Midwestern
Nigeria that is religiously pluralistic. Emphasis is given to
hospitality and friendship-two key relational, cultural,
philosophical, and theological virtues-as tools for constructing
healthy interreligious dialogue that is relevant for our times. A
critical study is done on the importance of these two dialogical
virtues in the religious expressions of Roman Catholicism, Islam,
and Ihievbe Traditional Religion. Preference for ethnographic
studies is based on stressing the relevance of context in
articulating useful practices of interreligious dialogue. Finally,
the book articulates ways the fruits of interreligious dialogue can
be celebrated in the liturgical rituals of each religion,
especially the three religions that are addressed here.
