Allah: A Christian Response

Author(s): Miroslav Volf

Politics

Do Muslims and Christians Worship the Same God? Yale University religion scholar Miroslav Volf - widely known for the much-publicized course on faith and globalization he coteaches with Tony Blair - places this question at the root of the twenty-first century's most sensitive, and critical, geopolitical concerns. Volf reveals how the prevalent belief that these traditions worship different gods is directly linked to increased hostility and violence around the globe. "Theological wars fuel real wars."
