Scenario

When interfaith dialogue becomes competitive

Our interfaith Bible study group has been meeting for five years but lately every discussion turns into subtle attempts to convince each other that our individual traditions have the right interpretation. We started this to learn from our differences but now it feels like we're all just defending our corners and I'm wondering if we've lost something essential.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A group committed to mutual learning is discovering that the ego's need to be right can corrupt even the most well-intentioned spiritual conversations.
