It’s Really All About God: Reflections of a Muslim Atheist Jewish Christian by Samir Selmanovic (Jossey-Bass, 2009)
It’s Really All About God is the most challenging book I have read this year (2009) so I thought that it was time to tell you why.
Though Samir has a strong Christian faith, he believes that God must also be found outside the boundaries of our own particular faith tradition. In other words, he believes that Christians need Jews and Muslims and even atheists to stretch their understanding of who God is. Looking for and finding God in others who are very different from ourselves is meant to be at the centre, not the outskirts, of our religious experience, he contends.
