Summary |
"This volume, like other Building Bridges Seminar books, presents pairs of lectures by Christians and Muslims which introduce texts for dialogical study, plus the actual text-excerpts themselves. This series is unique in that each volume goes far beyond mere reporting on a dialogical seminar; rather, each provides guidance and materials for constructing a similar dialogical experience on a particular topic. Naming God brings fresh perspective to a topic of great interest in Christian-Muslim understanding. In a sense, Naming God continues the conversation begun in the Seminar's earlier publication, Monotheism and Its Complexities (2018), and employs the same distinctive approach to dialogical close reading a scripture and other source material. The book is vital reading for students (undergraduate and graduate) and congregational leaders"-- Provided by publisher |
