Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christians and Jews Building Bridges tells how Christian-Jewish relations have improved dramatically since the Council of Christians and Jews was founded in 1942. It is now widely recognised that Jesus was a faithful Jew and that Jews and Christians both seek the coming of the Messianic Age or Kingdom of God. This book looks back at the issues which have been of most importance in Jewish-Christian relations in the last twenty years. The second part of the book is a reminder that dialogue does not take place between religions but between people. It tells the story of some of those active in the life of the Council of Christians and Jews (CCJ) The book is a sequel to 'Children of One God', which told the story of the first fifty years of CCJ. Marcus Braybrooke is a retired Anglican parish priest, interfaith activist and author of Meeting Jews. He studied in Jerusalem and was a Director of CCJ.

Book excerpt: I believe that the sense of limitless horizons for human potential in classic science fiction, such as the works of Isaac Asimov, opened my mind at a young age to the "radical" idea that any system, seen from a wider perspective, can and should be changed for the better, an ideal that at its core is profoundly biblical.The Bible is essentially "counter-cultural" in any given period of history. It measures the present always to the yardstick of human and, indeed, cosmic perfection of the End Time of universal justice, harmony, and peace. Such a concept is guaranteed to make the people of any generation open to its call to be restive and uncomfortable with human institutions in which they live and with which they interact, whether political or religious. I am obviously not alone in this.I believe "thinking outside the box" is to some extent a characteristic of my generation, which came to age in the 1960s, however much life's trials and challenges have forged and molded that instinct in diverse ways.

Book excerpt: At a time when religious conflict and violence seem to dominate the media, distinguished religion journalist Gustav Niebuhr set off across America to find people who are building, not burning, the bridges between faiths. As he travels across the country-from Queens and Baltimore to Louisville and Los Angeles-he finds Buddhists, Catholics, Jews, Baptists, Muslims, and Episcopalians reaching out to one another to find common ground between their faiths.

Book Synopsis The Bridge Builder by : Ze'ev Chafets
Download or read book The Bridge Builder written by Ze'ev Chafets and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The amazing story of Yechiel Eckstein, a Chicago-based orthodox rabbi who founded the world’s largest philanthropic organization of Evangelical Christians in support of Israel. When the Anti-Defamation League sent a young Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein to Chicago to foster interfaith relations in the late 1970’s, he was surprised to see how responsive Christian evangelicals were to the cause of supporting and defending Israel. Eckstein founded The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews in 1983 to promote cross-cultural understanding and build broad support for Israel, Soviet Jewry, and other shared concerns. The Fellowship has grown and thrived over the last three decades, raising more than $1.1 billion, and is one of the largest 50 NGOs in America today. American Christians have become one of Israel’s most reliable sources of financial and moral support. Few people realize that Eckstein and The Fellowship have done an unprecedented good deed in bridging an ancient cultural gap. Renowned journalist Zev Chafets explores Eckstein’s role in this important interfaith evolution, showing how an American rabbi made major progress in promoting dialogue, cooperation, and mutual respect in the face of harsh and unrelenting opposition.
Book Synopsis Building Bridges by : Lena Allen-Shore
Download or read book Building Bridges written by Lena Allen-Shore and published by Novalis Press (CN). This book was released on 2004 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building Bridges is about a unique friendship between Pope John Paul II and a Jewish woman from Poland, Lena Allen-Shore. They did not meet until 1996 but their lives had a number of surprising similarities: both were born in Poland at around the same time, raised in similar economic circumstances, both celebrated Polish culture through poetry, music, theatre and philosophy. During World War II, the young seminarian went underground to complete his studies while the young seminarian went underground to complete his studies while the young women assumed a Christian identity to survive. Decades later, it would be Lena Allen-Shore who encouraged the Pope to take up poetry once more. Scarred by the war and the unprecedented Holocaust of European Jews, Pope John Paul II and Lena Allen-Shore resolved to build bridges between Christians and Jews-John Paul by his journeys, meetings and public statements denouncing anti-Semitism, Lena Allen-Shore through her teaching and writing. As their friendship deepened, the Pope invited her to attend Key events celebrating Jewish-Christian dialogue, in Jerusalem and Assisi. This is an insightful and moving book about what may be the Pope's most important legacy, the building of bridges between Christians and Jews by witnessing to the Holocaust. The story of his unique friendship with a Jewish compatriot makes this achievement understandable in human terms.

Book Synopsis Building Bridges in a World of Crumbling Connections by : Ronald Higdon
Download or read book Building Bridges in a World of Crumbling Connections written by Ronald Higdon and published by Energion Publications. This book was released on 2022-06-07 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What can you do when you see bridges between people breaking down all around you? What should you do? Dr. Ron Higdon has served many congregations and taught seminars over many years, helping people to learn to reach out to one another, learn to work together, and to resolve differences through dialog. In this short, non-technical book, he calls on us all to take up the task of building bridges. This involves both a commitment of the heart, and actions in the world around us that tend to create peace. Peacemaking can be a dangerous profession, but Dr. Higdon sees it as a crucial part of Christian living and Christian ministry. But this book goes beyond peacemaking, and presents strategies for bridge building and reconciliation in all of our relationships. It is about building community and understanding that is possible even in the midst of different perspectives and points of view on critical issues. The goal is to enable reconstruction and renewal of damaged connections that have resulted in distrust, suspicion, and isolation. “Are you reconciled?” is perhaps the biggest question and the major challenge in many families, communities, and, certainly, in our nation. Our time calls for those who can bring us together and enable us to live with mutual respect and commitment to the common good. The goal of this book is to present a prescription for building bridges of possibility. Anyone who would like to work toward that goal, will benefit from reading and studying it.
Book Synopsis Bridges to Islam by : Philip L. Parshall
Download or read book Bridges to Islam written by Philip L. Parshall and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2015-12-10 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the acclaimed book Muslim Evangelism, Phil Parshall devotes one chapter to "bridges" which can assist in facilitating understanding between Islam and Christianity. In Bridges to Islam he expands that key chapter into a book. The most promising bridges can be found not in orthodox Islam, contends the author, but in "folk Islam", which is less well known in the West but which influences about 70 percent of the world's Muslims. "Popular Islam consists largely of people who desire to know God and to be accepted by him", writes the author. "They have a high view of one God who is . . . all-powerful and merciful." The mystical Sufis press for a more satisfying personal relationship with Allah. These teachings and aspirations, argues the author, have immense potential as bridges, which he has personally witnessed spending many years ministering among Muslims. This thorough and in depth study of ways to bridge folk Islam will be invaluable to missionaries, students, and those interested in reaching Muslims for Christ.
