Lutherans in the United States and Canada are well aware that their societies have become multiracial, multi-life-style and multi-religious. What does this mean for us as thoughtful, committed followers of Jesus Christ? How do we build friendly, healthy relationships with neighbors who have differing faiths from our own? This book seeks to deal with these and related questions in ways that encourage congregations to reach out in friendship to members of other faiths living in their communities. Friendship can lead to the formation of dialogue groups promoting mutual understanding and acceptance. This book -- designed for both academic and congregational use -- offers a Lutheran response to the challenges of religious pluralism.
