No God But God
VAN GORDER, C
Do Christians and Muslims worship the same God? Why do they so often seem to talk past each other when it comes to the nature of God and how God is revealed in the world?
These are among the questions van Gorder addresses—the basis for potential dialogue as well as grounds for frequent misunderstanding between Christians and Muslims. Van Gorder notes that there is no shortage of books seeking to explain Christianity to Muslims and vice versa. "The problem is," he notes, "that Christianity has often been introduced independent from the Islamic concept of God and the Muslim perception of Jesus." At the same time "few Muslims have heard an unclouded presentation of who God is according to Christianity." This clear and readable book at last clears the way to fruitful dialogue.
