Abstract
The author explores the history of American Lutheran engagement, mediated partly by the ELCA, in interfaith dialogue. He explains the distinctiveness of 21st-century ELCA interreligious discourse, while encouraging Lutherans to invest in inter-faith relations out of their fullness. Through their lives and stories, desire to serve, quest for the sacred, and theological discovery, Lutherans and Muslim can grow together, as they seek peaceful community.
