Transformation by Integration

How interfaith encounter changes christianity

Edited by: Perry Schmidt-Leukel

A growing number of people experience their own spiritual lives as being inspired by more than one religious tradition. Multi-religious identity formation and double-belonging are obvious signs of a process of significant transformation as a result inter-faith encounter – a transformation that had been expected and positively willed by various inter-faith theologians.

Transformation by Integration looks more deeply at a number of issues involved: What does it mean theologically to move beyond tolerance towards a genuine appreciation of other religions? How can multi-religious identity be assessed theologically? Will we have to reconsider the widespread dismissal of syncretism?
