Description
Summary:The document A Common Word Between Us and You was published by a broad range of Muslim leaders and scholars in October 2007. Focussing on the twin commandment to love God and neighbour, it invited Christian leaders to engage in dialogue. Many Church leaders eagerly embraced the invitation, and in the subsequent years, the Muslim initiative bore fruits in the form of numerous Muslim-Christian conferences and cooperative projects across the world involving a broad range of Christians from Orthodox to Evangelicals. It has inspired interreligious cooperation beyond the Muslim-Christian axis and can continue to do so in the years to come.
