Scenario

When interfaith communities split over the intersection of spirituality and politics

Our interfaith discussion group has been meeting for two years and we've always been able to navigate our theological differences with respect, but now we're fracturing over political issues that feel inseparable from our faith convictions. Some of us think we should avoid politics entirely while others believe our spiritual practice demands we engage with justice, and the silence between us is becoming its own kind of statement.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Sacred conversations become impossible when the ground of what is sacred itself becomes contested.
