If you want a quick overview of what interfaith dialogue is all about then this is the book for you. I finished it in two days as it was easy reading but gained a lot from the different issues raised in relation to Christianity’s encounters with other religions. The chapter on Islam is the most interesting as it dealt with critical and sensitive questions and helped me see the more essential aspects of Christian faith and how to respond when asked about original sin and salvation. This book explains very complex theological issues in understandable language. Every Christian will find it useful.
