Description

A record of the 2015 Building Bridges Seminar for leading Christian and Muslim scholars, this collection of essays explores the nature of divine and human agency through themes of creation's goal, humankind's dignity and task, and notions of sovereignty. The book features paired essays from both a Muslim and Christian perspective, introducing scriptural material with commentary to aid readers in conducting dialogical study. The seminar conversations at the heart of this volume convey a vivid sense of lively, penetrating but respectful dialogue, highlighting the value of interfaith discussion for understanding these complex themes. This unique volume will be a valuable resource for scholars, students and professors of Christianity and Islam, offering insights into the nature of divine and human agency in both faith traditions. With 182 pages of essays and commentary, this book provides a comprehensive exploration of the intersection of Christian and Muslim perspectives on creation, dignity and sovereignty.
