About the Author

'As a leading community development practitioner, Dave Andrews has enjoyed the friendship of people from various religious traditions ... and has sought to find common ground with his Muslim friends... In this reflective reader he has sought to bring about a respectful listening regarding the Messiah from the New Testament tradition and that of the Muslim faith... This is the song of a God for all and close to all: a God in whom we have our very being ... who draws close and nurtures us ... in the Stranger from Galilee.' - Charles Ringma - Emeritus Professor of Regent College, Vancouver and Research Professor of Asian Theological Seminary, Manila.
