A Common Word - resource for Christian & Muslim reflection

The letter A Common Word, addressed to Christian leaders around the world, and signed by 138 Muslim scholars, is an important contribution to Christian-Muslim relations and dialogue.

Many Churches have already made their responses and there also a number of related initiatives underway.

However as well as ‘responding', the letter provides an opportunity to further develop better relations between Christians and Muslims at a local level, and also to deepen awareness of issues between the two religions amongst Christians.

Churches Together in Britain and Ireland has produced a publication that will be a resource for churches and individuals who wish to explore these issues Above Us and Between Us - English single pages (PDF, 250k)
