By Faith and Hospitality - 4 Pieces Per Package

Description

The Monastic Tradition as a Model for Interreligious Encounter

In this deeply insightful and challenging work, Fr. Pierre-François de Béthune proposes an approach to interreligious dialogue that is steeped in the monastic tradition of hospitality. Urging all Christians to live by the example set in Scripture, Fr. Pierre-François reminds readers of the importance of welcoming the stranger in their midst. Informed by many extended visits to Zen Buddhist monasteries throughout Japan, he describes true interfaith dialogue as a spiritual experience in which one encounters the other as both incredibly familiar and yet, profoundly foreign. In this space of marked vulnerability, Fr. Pierre-François invites us to embrace the other, opening our doors, our arms, and our hearts to our brothers and sisters of every faith tradition.
