The Review of Faith & International Affairs, 2018, vol. 16, issue 3, 114-118

Abstract: This essay is an Afterword for a theme issue of The Review of Faith & International Affairs on “Interfaith on the World Stage.” The essay argues for a three-step process of interfaith dialogue involving dialogue, understanding through the seeking of genuine knowledge, and friendship. The goal is building personal relationships between people of different religions and cultures. This argument is supported with personal examples that attest to the effectiveness and potential of this approach.
