- Listening to People of Other Faiths, Claire Disbrey, 2004, Oxford
The Bible Reading Fellowship, 2004, £7.99. Claire's target readers are British Christians who have not had much contact with people of other faiths, to help them think through what it means to be one community of faith amongst others. She rejects exclusivist interpretations of verses such as John 14v6. But she also challenges the view that all religions are the same, adding: “I do not therefore imagine, however, that I have got God completely sewn up. Nor do I feel I have to rubbish other people's stories by declaring them wrong or faulty, incomplete or useless. I don't know the whole truth about God as he is, and I don't know how things look from where they are standing.”
