In recent years there has been an explosion of curiosity and debate about Islam and the role of religion on the global stage. The debates bring up questions of politics, history, and global security, but virtually no one speaks to the heart and spirit. In fact, across the world, millions of people experience and consider these important issues not as political, economic, or intellectual questions but rather questions of deep spiritual, emotional, or religious significance. "The Tent of Abraham" provides readers with stories that can bring all the faiths together. Written by three religious leaders, from the Jewish, Muslim, and Christian faiths, the book explores in accessible language the mythic quality and the teachings of reconciliation that are imbedded in the Torah, Quran, and the Bible. It also employs the story of Abraham from all three of these sacred texts to weave together the wisdoms of these religious traditions into a deeper, more unified whole. "The Tent of Abraham" is the first book to tell the story of Abraham as found in Jewish, Muslim, and Christian sources and to recognize it as a basis for peace. Religion, politics. *.
