Books to Get Started

People often ask me for good basic texts to begin to understand the field of interfaith education. I suggest Judith A. Berling, Understanding Other World Religions(Orbis, 2004)and Sandmel, Catalano and Leighton, Irreconcilable Differences?(Westview,2001). Going a bit further, one might want to check out David Coppola, What do we Want the Other to Teach about Us?(Sacred Heart, 2006)
