The Building Bridges Seminar, a gathering of scholar-practitioners of Islam and Christianity, has been convened annually since 2002 for the purpose of deep study of scripture and other texts carefully selected for their pertinence to the year's chosen theme. This book provides a record of the proceedings of the fifteenth such seminar, which met in and near Washington, DC, May 6-10, 2016. Lucinda Mosher begins the volume with a retrospective on the first fifteen years of Building Bridges, providing a context for the model of vigorous and respectful dialogue that characterizes the initiative.  Christian scholars such as Richard Bauckham and Christoph Schwobel and Muslim scholars such as Asma Afsaruddin and Martin Nguyen the explore the contours of monotheism as a theological question.  In addition, the book analyzes texts from the two traditions, featuring reflections by Sajjad Rizvi and Janet Soskice and others on affirming the unity of God. Lucinda Mosher concludes the volume with an insider's look at the deliberations and discussions among participants. 

Conventional wisdom would have it that believing in one God is straightforward; that Muslims are expert at monotheism, but that Christians complicate it, weaken it, or perhaps even abandon it altogether by speaking of the Trinity. In this book, Muslim and Christian scholars challenge that opinion. Examining together scripture texts and theological reflections from both traditions, they show that the oneness of God is taken as axiomatic in both, and also that affirming God's unity has raised complex theological questions for both. The two faiths are not identical, but what divides them is not the number of gods they believe in. The latest volume of proceedings of The Building Bridges Seminar—a gathering of scholar-practitioners of Islam and Christianity that meets annually for the purpose of deep study of scripture and other texts carefully selected for their pertinence to the year’s chosen theme—this book begins with a retrospective on the seminar’s first fifteen years and concludes with an account of deliberations and discussions among participants, thereby providing insight into the model of vigorous and respectful dialogue that characterizes this initiative.  Contributors include Richard Bauckham, Sidney Griffith, Christoph Schwöbel, Janet Soskice, Asma Afsaruddin, Maria Dakake, Martin Nguyen, and Sajjad Rizvi. To encourage further dialogical study, the volume includes those scripture passages and other texts on which their essays comment. A unique resource for scholars, students, and professors of Christianity and Islam.
