Beschreibung:
This book offers a journey of discovery and reflection into the world of Islam from the point of view of a modern Christian scholar and Bonhoeffer expert. Wüstenberg’s own experiences lead the way to a greater understanding of the Muslim faith while holding to a Christian perspective.
How is it that Islam is so feared and misunderstood among Christians? Is there any possibility of an open dialogue between Muslims and Christians that will lead to a greater understanding of both? Ralf K. Wüstenberg explores these and other questions in an in-depth investigation of Islam, using as his guide the teachings of the revered Muslim scholar, Al-Ghazali, and placing them in dialogue with those of the protestant theologian and Reformer, John Calvin. The journey of discovery offered in this book is of long-lasting value to both Christians and Muslims as they seek to find common ground in understanding the most important and basic tenets of each other’s faith.
