The Mission and Death of Jesus in Islam and Christianity

Front Cover
Orbis Books, Mar 11, 2015 - Religion - 288 pages
The common wisdom is that Christians and Muslims should dialogue only about what they agree on. This book takes a different approach. As the author observes, ""If we focus only on our common ground, we will miss some of the motivating force of our traditions, because that force derives not only from what we hold in common, but also from those convictions that keep us apart.""
