This book describes the experiences and reflections of a Christian priest living and working in a predominantly Muslim community in Blackburn. It explores the complexities of coexistence and the ways in which engaging with Islam has changed his perception of prayer, and strengthened the depth and experience of his Christian faith. Sharing prayer fosters understanding, but it can also create a ‘God-filled space’ in which a Christian encounter with God can be enriched. Fr Heale examines the Christian church’s approach to engaging with Islam, and the way in which Muslims perceive Christianity, influenced by historical and doctrinal differences. His exploration highlights the importance of faith and love in Christian-Muslim interactions. The concept of mission is examined in the light of the transformation of understanding that comes through a deeper understanding of Islam.
