But it is also a book formed \u003cem\u003ein \u003c\/em\u003edialogue. I seek to bring together the two sides of my experience as an academic teacher and pastoral worker: on the one hand, the extraordinary world of the religions that is such an important feature of contemporary Western culture; on the other, my spiritual formation and religious practice which has acted as the primary motivation for everything that I do as a Jesuit priest. The book can be read both as a practical correlate to what I have written elsewhere on the theology of religions, and, at a more personal level, as a reflection on my experience ‘on the streets’, as it were. I am guided throughout by the conviction that Christian faith comes truly alive when it is communicated, brought into dialogue with what is ‘other’, different, even strange. God’s own story, what God seeks to reveal of God’s own self through the witness of the Bible, enters into dialogue with the story of one Jesuit who seeks to respond to the mystery of a loving God through the lens of Ignatian spirituality. The twelve linked chapters form a personal introduction, with a degree of autobiography and illustrative anecdote, to an interior dialogue between Christian faith and the challenging context of contemporary religious pluralism. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMichael Barnes is the author of \u003cem\u003eReligions in Conversation \u003c\/em\u003e(SPCK 1989) , \u003cem\u003eGod East and West \u003c\/em\u003e(SPCK 1991), \u003cem\u003eTheology and the Dialogue of Religions \u003c\/em\u003e(CUP 2002), \u003cem\u003eInterreligious Learning: Dialogue, Spirituality and the Christian Imagination\u003c\/em\u003e (CUP 2012), \u003cem\u003eWaiting on Grace: a Theology of Dialogue (\u003c\/em\u003eOUP 2020).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57315138044286,"sku":"NW9781788123440","price":15.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9781788123440.jpg?v=1778715070","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/products\/ignatian-approach-to-interreligious-rela","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
