Produktbeschreibung
The modern age of religion is characterized by dialogue. Jews and Christians together explore the realities and meaning of living in proximity to one another. Yet for all the good will and sincerity of intention, too often such discussions fail to progress beyond well-intentioned pleasantries to the challenging content that can truly deepen our understanding of each other. This fascinating introduction to the theologies of four modern religious thinkers will help us break through the superficial generalities so common in interfaith dialogue to expose perspectives that can unite us on the most profound levels. Examining the lives and works of Kierkegaard, Buber, Heschel and Tillich through the lens of their treatment of the Bible and the figure of the biblical patriarch Abraham, you will engage in a discussion of the very phenomenon of religion and what part it plays in living a fully engaged human life.
