“I recommend the book for graduate courses in religious studies, theology, and pastoral ministry, all of whom may benefit from engagement with dimensions of the book. It also speaks to the growing consensus that theological reflections on interreligious themes be grounded in friendship, history, and practice, rather than abstract discussions of truth.” (Erik Ranstrom, Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies, Vol. 33 (1), 2020)
