Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Healing The Jewish-Christian Rift: Growing Beyond Our Wounded History, deftly co-authored by author Ron Miller (Chair oft the Religion Department at Lake Forest College in Lake Forest, Illinois, cofounder of Common Ground-adult group for interfaith religious study and dialogue since 1975) and Laura Bernstein (published Jewish writer, Jewish scholar and leader of interfaith groups in sacred chant and meditation), is an exclusive collaborative study on the prevalence of unity between Christianity and Judaism. Readers will discover the significant progression the past two decades have brought in uniting the two Abrahamic faiths from the darkness of the past two thousand years of death and bloodshed being afflicted from one to the other. Healing The Jewish-Christian Rift is a studious examination of what is yet to come between Judaism and Christianity as effect of the many struggling to make the difference and is highly recommended to all readers with an interest in cultural studies, religious studies, modern religion, as well as Christian Studies and/or Judaic Studies.
A Move Toward Understanding and Respect

In Healing the Jewish-Christian Rift, Miller and Bernstein offer a much-needed approach to constructive dialogue between Jews and Christians. It freshens the air of stale and unhelpful interpretations of important aspects of the life of Jesus and the Gospels. The heart of the book finds and appreciates the love ethic found in both religions. Most importantly, it's a passionate work of faith that encourages conversation that breaks down barriers to healing and shared values. I highly recommend this book for people of faith everywhere, regardless of religious affiliation.
