Who
is that kid next door? Creating Interfaith Community Younger
Christians are growing up in an increasingly interreligious world. They go to
school and live in communities with others from Hindu, Muslim, Jewish, and other
faiths. They see religious conflicts in the news on a daily basis. And they question
whether their Christian faith is mature enough to engage in dialogue and live
in harmony with those of other faiths.
This is a book of stories told by
youth from a variety of religious backgrounds about quests for peace and justice
in our world through which they learn about each other. These stories will
engage youth in discussions on interfaith issues, on personal faith journeys as
Christians, and on the quest to live with others in an interreligious community.
