Interreligious Dialogue in Practice. Letter to a New Bishop
Interreligious Dialogue in Practice. Letter to a New Bishop

Summary/Abstract: How can a local Church be, at the same time, a credible, convincing witness to Christ’s Kingdom and pro-active in the attitude of openness, reconciliation, understanding and collaboration? In other words, how to be God’s people in mission and in dialogue? Letter to a New Bishop offers theological grounds and provides some suggestions and material for a truly Catholic encounter with other believers. It begins with a brief overview of the relevant terminology: mission, evangelisation, interreligious dialogue and proclamation. It then proposes several concrete propositions of how to set up and run a diocesan office, or an organisation, charged with interreligious dialogue and related matters. The Letter addresses also some common misconceptions about the idea of interreligious dialogue, and encourages its advocates to carry on this difficult, but so desperately needed, work.
