Jewish Muslim Lutheran Relations

Windows for Understanding

An important new resource is available online through the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America's Ecumenical and Inter-Religious Relations: Windows for Understanding: Jewish-Muslim-Lutheran Relations.

Here is the link to the lengthy document: http://www.elca.org/ecumenical/interreligious/windows.html

Where we open a window for understanding, we create healthier and deeper perspectives. Windows for Understanding is an online lighthouse resource to help illuminate the landscape of inter-religious relations. Windows is posted online through ELCA Ecumenical and Inter-Religious Relations, where it is revised and refined on a regular basis. Up-to-date reading lists, web links, timelines, and glossaries are included.

In the future look for free online congregational study guides and other related material. Please use this resource as a window for greater understanding. Your exploration into questions of what it means to be Lutheran in this varied inter-religious landscape will help your own faith grow in depth and meaning. Go to http://www.elca.org/ecumenical - click on "inter-religious" to find an introduction to Windows for Understanding.

Windows for Understanding was announced in the on-line newsletter Ecumenical Life. To subscribe go to www.elca.org/ecumenical/life/index.html
