Mutual understanding between the faithful of the world's great
religions is no longer a luxury; all over the world, religions are
challenged to find common ground in the cause of peace and justice,
and in the face of war and exploitation. Meanwhile, stereotypes,
antipathies and sectarian isolation continue to rob religion of the
impact it can and should have in fostering a better world.
Conversations across Traditions offers a fresh invitation to and
model for interfaith dialogue. Drawing on his extensive knowledge
and experience of ecumenical cooperation, Roman Catholic lay
brother and monk Wayne Teasdale offers a strong and prophetic voice
for interfaith dialogue that brings traditions together without
watering them down. He offers a blueprint for combining the
strengths and perspectives of various faiths in order to address
the crises of poverty, racism, environmental pollution and moral
indifference. Highly informative and compelling, this book is
accessible to a wide audience, from the classroom to study groups
and others who want to learn about conversing across traditions.
Teasdale offers a valuable approach to teaching the Roman Catholic
tradition in our pluralized, globalized world. At the same time,
his spiritual insight and prophetic wisdom lead the reader into the
frontier world of interfaith relations where confusion is always
present, and faith, though not as secure as in isolation, is
enriched by contact with the great world religions. This book is
visionary, hopeful, and deeply inspiring as we walk into the
uncharted future.
