{"product_id":"a-common-word-miroslav-volf-9780802863805","title":"Common Word: Muslims and Christians on Loving God and Neighbor","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn late 2007 Muslim leaders from around the world together issued in the pages of The New York Times an open letter to Christian leaders inviting cooperation as a step toward peace. That letter, -A Common Word between Us and You, - acknowledged real differences between the two faiths but nonetheless contended that -righteousness and good works- should be the only areas in which they compete. The 138 signatories included over a dozen grand muftis, an ayatollah, and a Jordanian prince, and the document was widely considered a groundbreaking step toward reconciliation between Islam and Christianity -- two major religions with a great deal in common. \/ That original letter and a collaborative Christian response -- -Loving God and Neighbor Together- -- both appear in this remarkable volume. Building on those original momentous documents, A Common Word further includes subsequent commentary and dialogue between Muslim and Christian scholars addressing critical and frequently asked questions. All in all, this eventful book encapsulates a brave and encouraging move toward harmony and accord between two world religions so often seen to be at odds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Miroslav Volf\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0802863809\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780802863805\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e William B.
