Prologue: Christian-Muslim Theological Dialogue in Retrospect ---- Introduction: Theological Themes and Subdisciplines ---- Part One: Historical dimensions: interpreting god's communication and divine engagement in time and space. 1. Sacred Sources and Community Origins --- 2. Development and Spread ---- Part Two: Creedal dimensions: faith and the development of theology as a religious discipline. 3. From Story to Creed --- 4. The Emergence of Theological Disciplines ---- Part Three: Institutional dimensions: the structures of theologically grounded community. 5. Beneath the Brick and Mortar --- 6. Institutions in Action ---- Part Four: Ethical and spiritual dimensions: mapping outward and inward journeys of faith. 7. Sources, Methods, and Social Values in Theological Ethics --- 8. Sources and Models in Traditions of Spirituality --- 9. Themes in Prayer and Mystical Theology ---- Epilogue: Reflections on the Prospects for Christian-Muslim Theological Dialogue.

In light of the widespread public perception of incompatibility between Islam and Christianity, this book provides a much-needed straightforward comparison of these two great faith traditions from a broad theological perspective. Award-winning scholar John Renard illuminates the similarities as well as the differences between Islam and Christianity through a clear exploration of four major dimensions--historical, creedal, institutional, and ethical and spiritual. Throughout, the book features comparisons between concrete elements such as creedal statements, prayer texts, and writings from major. -- Publisher description.
