In light of the widespread public perception of incompatibility
between Islam and Christianity, this book provides a much-needed
straightforward comparison of these two great faith traditions from
a broad theological perspective. Award-winning scholar John Renard
illuminates the similarities as well as the differences between
Islam and Christianity through a clear exploration of four major
dimensions - historical, creedal, institutional, and ethical and
spiritual. Throughout, this book features comparisons between
concrete elements such as creedal statements, prayer texts, and
writings from major theologians and mystics. It also includes a
glossary of technical theological terms. For western readers in
particular, this balanced, authoritative work overturns some common
stereotypes about Islam, especially those that have emerged in the
decade since September 11, 2001.
