A Sacred Argument
Dispatches from the Christian, Jewish, and Muslim Encounter
About this book
Our society is sharply divided along political, racial, and religious lines. People of faith often feel debilitated in the face of these divisions, understanding neither their nature nor how best to respond. As these divisions become more intense, the need to get at their roots becomes more urgent. A Sacred Argument addresses this need, equipping readers with practical and theoretical resources to engage problems that all too often break down trust, shut down honest conversations, and disrupt collaborative action. This story aims to renew within each reader the sense of compassion and the deep yearning for understandings that can come from the encounter with those who see the world differently.
