Fruitful relationships and constructive interaction between religions have become more important than ever. But what about the issues of truth and conflicting truth claims? Is it a betrayal of one’s own faith to acknowledge the truth of other religions? The current work is the first English translation of "Gott ohne Grenzen", published in 2005. In this much acclaimed study, Perry Schmidt-Leukel defends religious pluralism showing under which presuppositions Christians can accept other religions as equally valid without denying their differences. He discusses in detail how the pluralist position opens up new perspectives in Christianity’s dialogue with Jews, Muslims, Hindus and Buddhists.

Pressestimmen

The translation of the book [...] is exceptionally well done, especially considering the complexity of the subject. [...] God Beyond Boundaries is bound to become one of the classic texts in field that will be in the forefront of theological investigation and development for decades to come.
