DESCRIPTION

In today's world, when Christians think about other religions, numerous questions and issues arise — and their convictions about Christ and about other religions can have a significant influence on their understanding of how God relates to people, and what their own conduct towards them should be.

From her wealth of inter-cultural and inter-faith experience, Ida Glaser believes that the most urgent questions for Christians focus on their own responsibilities and other people's welfare.

Responding to Micah 6:8 — 'And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God' — Dr Glaser explores biblical perspectives on other faiths and their adherents, with clarity, sensitivity and challenging insights for all Christians.
