Your god, my god, our god

Your god, my god, our god

By S. Wesley Ariarajah

Book Description

In an era where diverse faith traditions intersect more than ever before, theologian S. Wesley Ariarajah presents a thoughtful exploration of how Christian believers can maintain authentic faith while honoring the spiritual experiences of others. This work challenges readers to examine fundamental Christian concepts through a fresh lens, one that acknowledges our religiously diverse world.

Ariarajah guides readers through a careful reconsideration of core theological ideas including the nature of God, concepts of sin and salvation, understandings of Christ, and approaches to mission. Rather than abandoning traditional Christian beliefs, he demonstrates how these central doctrines can be understood in ways that both deepen personal faith and create space for respectful dialogue with other religious traditions.

The author grounds his approach in biblical foundations while tracing how theological concepts have evolved throughout history. He then offers constructive alternatives for developing a Christian perspective on religious diversity that maintains theological integrity without dismissing the validity of other spiritual paths.

For readers seeking to navigate questions of faith in our interconnected world, this book provides a framework for holding deep Christian conviction alongside genuine respect for religious difference. Ariarajah's work speaks to those who desire both spiritual authenticity and meaningful engagement across faith boundaries, offering a path toward understanding that honors both personal belief and universal human spiritual experience.
