Editorial reviews
This groundbreaking volume gathers an array of inspiring and penetrating stories about the interreligious encounters of outstanding community leaders, scholars, public intellectuals, and activist from the United States, Europe, and the Middle East. With wisdom, wit, courage, and humility, these writers from a range of religious backgrounds share their personal experience of border-crossing, and the lessons learned from their interreligious adventures. We live in the most religiously diverse society in the history of humankind. Every day, people of different religious beliefs and practices encounter one another in a myriad of settings. How has this new situation of religious diversity impacted the way we understand the religious other, ourselves, and God? Can we learn to live together with mutual respect, working together for the creation of a more compassionate and just world?

Gregory Mobley
Gregory Mobley is inspired by and seeks to be inspiring about the Bible.
Mobley is Professor of Christian Bible at Andover Newton Theological Seminary in Newton, MA.
I want writing about the Bible to be as soulful and idiomatic as the Bible itself is.
I write for people like me, who are grateful to be alive and to have the gift of consciousness, and who will never, never give up their right to think and speak freely.
By the way, everything is holy.

5.0 out of 5 stars inspiring stories of sharing faithsReviewed in the United States on May 18, 2023
Verified Purchase
I became thoroughly enthralled with this book. It tells stories of people who encountered those of different faith traditions. Taken through the metaphor of meeting neighbors as in a journey, the reader learns of faith intersections where people have learned to respect and honor neighbors of various faiths even while disagreeing on some things. The stories show meaningful interfaith connections made while acting on personal religious convictions to love God and love neighbor.

5.0 out of 5 stars Embracing the EmbracedReviewed in the United States on May 12, 2014
Verified Purchase
Every person of faith, all around the world, believes (their) God is love. Yet, even though as children we love and play with all equally, we gradually learn to change as we grow up to hate those different from us. This book gives promise that by seeing what we share in common, and try to build bridges across our chasms, we can find peace. With so many in the World without any faith, should we find strength in bonding with other faithful persons during this life, rather than shunning or hating them for their differences?

Very helpful. I love the contrast in thoughts of the writers as they explain their on interfaith feelings and experiences. I learned a lot and understand other faiths better. It is not so much written to teach the details of doctrines and specific beliefs as much as the writers express feelings and understandings as the find common ground and mutual respect for person who belief differently than they.

5.0 out of 5 stars Each chapter offers different experiences in interfaith relations and is very thought provoking.Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2019
Verified Purchase
It arrived very quickly.
It was a used copy, so it did have some notes and underlinings in it, which reduced the cost much.
It is a great book of interfaith interactions promoting understanding .

5.0 out of 5 stars Great read on experiences in interfaith dialogueReviewed in the United States on October 13, 2015
Verified Purchase
Great book to finish up my EFM experience. Fantastic personal stories on people's experiences with their own faith traditions and others. With so many contributors- some stories are naturally better than others, but overall excellent read. I know so many that should - though sadly won't- read this book.
