In the Tent of Abraham: The Mystical Heart of Islam, Christianity and Judaism by Rabbi Jonathan Kligler

Judaism, Christianity and Islam all occupy the “Tent of Abraham” – that is, we all trace our spiritual lineage back to Abraham. In this course, we will ask each other all of our questions, even the ones we have been afraid to ask. We will learn about our profound similarities and our important differences. We will explore our history, beliefs and practices with intellectual honesty and accuracy. Equally important, we will share how are traditions move us spiritually, how and why we practice them, and what they have to teach us on the spiritual path.

In merging the intellectual and the experiential, we will both learn an immense amount and open doorways that lead to the common ground of our humanness.

During these times of enmity and mistrust, it is immeasurably important for us to sit in Abraham’s Tent together, and meet each other deeply. It will be good for our own souls, and also good for our world.
