Challenged to try,
By
This review is from: Dialogue: In Search of Jewish-Christian Understanding (Paperback)
The Jewish rabbi and Episcopal priest, Rabbi Spiro and Bishop Spong, did not beat around the bush during their dialogue. They openly discussed differences, and graciously recognized and expressed appreciation for in-common beliefs and expressions of faith and God's love. For example, Spiro said, "We can come together, reconcile, and transcend our differences by recognizing and remembering that we are all human and that we are all children of the one God." The crowds that Spiro and Spong attracted to their synagogue and church sanctuaries as they discussed the issues, now available in book form, reveal the growing interest and awareness of the need for Jews and Gentiles to reconcile and dialogue. I have wanted to for a long time. Following Spiro and Spong's example, I am challenged to try. For further reading for other readers who are challenged and interested, I also recommend "Jews, Gentiles and the Church" by David Larsen.

This review is from: Dialogue: In Search of Jewish-Christian Understanding (Paperback)
Because I have read so many of Spong's books, this one seems too old. His thinking has changed as he has grown older and wiser. Still, I would read it, if I hadn't already done so for it shows how his mind progressed. Spong is one of my favorite authors.
