Response to 'A Common Word Between Us and You'

Rowan Williams has released a response to the 138 Muslim scholars “A Common Word Between Us and You” document. Please click here to download

In this scholarly and carefully worded response Dr Williams focuses on five areas of potential common ground for further discussion;

The love and praise of God
The commitment to a love of neighbour
A desire to ground our discussions in our Scriptures
A commitment to relate to each other from the heart of our faith lives
An appreciation of the recognition of the differences between Christians and Muslims that do not conflict with the shared commitment to love god and neighbour.
