KNYGA The Fetzer Institute Retelling Sacred Stories: Our Journeys to a Shared Sacred Story

A major multi-religious labor to retell stories drawn from nine traditions to facilitate Sacred-based solidarity for shared flourishing among all people and the Earth. Over the last five years, The Fetzer Institute, a philanthropic foundation dedicated to helping build the spiritual foundation for a loving world, has sponsored a multi-year project titled "Our Shared Sacred Story." Gathering teams of scholars and spiritual leaders from all the major world religious traditions, each team was assigned the task of composing a "story" that shares their respective tradition's experience of the Sacred and how it can support shared flourishing. The volume begins with an effort to tell a "shared sacred story" that respects each religion's integrity and calls for a new philosophy of science open to the Sacred.
