""We agree that 'inequality' is rampant in our world; we agree less so as to whether there should be 'equality.'" So spoke a Building Bridges Seminar veteran as this project's examination of Christian and Muslim perspectives on "a world of inequalities" got underway. Founded in 2002 as an initiative of the Archbishop of Canterbury and under the stewardship of Georgetown University since 2012, the Building Bridges Seminar is believed to be the longest-running dialogue of Christian and Muslim scholar-practitioners. Meetings have been held in both Muslim- and Christian-majority locales-among them, Qatar, Singapore, Italy, and the United Kingdom. This book presents the proceedings of the seventeenth Building Bridges Seminar, convened June 18-22, 2018, in Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina"--

This book presents the proceedings of the fourteenth annual Building Bridges seminar, a gathering of scholar-practioners of Islam and Christianity for study of selected texts pertaining to a chosen theme. Part I includes two brilliant essays that set the context for the book: "Human Action within Divine Creation: A Muslim Perspective" by Mohsen Kadivar of Duke University and "On the Possibility of Holy Living: A Christian Perspective" by Lucy Gardner of Oxford. The rest of the book includes paired essays--one from a Muslim perspective, one from a Christian perspective--that introduce scriptural material with commentary to aid readers in conducting dialogical study. Contributors include Richard Bauckham of St. Andrews, Sohaira Azhir Siddiqui of Georgetown, Brandon Gallagher of Exeter, Maria Massai Dakake of George Mason, Velli-Matti Kärkkäinen of Fuller Theological Seminary, and Feras Q. Hamza of the University of Wollongong in Dubai, among others. In her conclusion, coeditor Lucinda Marshall digests the illuminating small-group conversations that lie at the heart of the Building Bridges initiative.
