Interfaith dialogue is hard, but intrafaith dialogue can be harder. Every Christian claims Jesus as Savior and Lord, so essential questions of how we understand Jesus, his earthly ministry, the meaning of the crucifixion, and the nature of his call upon our lives become the grounds of our essential debate and, literally, a matter of life and death. When we encounter a Christian who thinks and believes differently, we often experience that difference as an attack on the principles upon which we have built our lives and as a betrayal to the faith. These battles are not new—Christians have disagreed since the days of the early church. However, it is possible for Christians to retain their differences and yet unite in respect for each other. It is possible to love one another and at the same time retain our individual beliefs. Christian Civility in an Uncivil World is a collection of essays from across a wide range of theological and political perspectives that demonstrates that we can talk together, listen to each other, change the Christian dialogue, and thus change our world.
