"What Does God Whisper to Christians: Models of Living Passionately in a Pluralist World"
With Paul Knitter & Samir Selmanovic

How do you balance your Christian identity, practice, and experience with inclusion and openness to other faiths? You don't. Forget the balance and radicalize instead. Prof. Paul Knitter, the greatest living theologian of Christian pluralism (and one of the kindest and most amusing Roman Catholic teachers) will lay out our options of living as passionate Christians in a world where conflict, triumphalism, isolation, and indifference have failed us. Samir Selmanovic of Faith House Manhattan will comment with questions, insights, and stories from his experience with Faith House Manhattan and other inter-religious co-laboratories.

Fri, June 24 @ 4 pm
"A Conversation with Islam"
With Abudullah Antepli

"Walking More Than One Path: Is Religious Multiple Belonging Possible?"
With Paul Knitter

Sat, June 25 @ 3 pm
"Going Deeper Through Inclusion: Perspectives on Religious Pluralism"
Be prepared to move beyond the superficial and be surprised by the conversation between three leaders in the modern interfaith movement: Imam Abdullah Antepli, Rabbi Or Rose, and Paul Knitter, Paul Tillich Professor of Theology, World Religions and Culture at Union Theological Seminary. This panel will explore Pluralism, the idea of more than one path to the divine, in the context of the modern quest to be deeply committed to one's own faith in a world of many religious paths. Moderated by Bowie Snodgrass, Executive Director of Faith House Manhattan.

Sat, June 25 @ 5 pm
"Kabbalah Beyond the Headlines"
Rabbi Or N. Rose
