Abstract

Interfaith engagement provokes discomfort and concern for many student affairs professionals who feel unprepared to facilitate constructive, interactive initiatives regarding the challenging area of religious and worldview diversity. Goodman, Giess, and Patel respond to these challenges with Education About Religious Diversity and Interfaith Engagement: A Handbook for Student Affairs, which they intend as a practical guidebook for practitioners to develop professionally and create effective programs that contribute to their diverse campus communities. Their edited work highlights a model of religious pluralism, inclusive of all religious, spiritual, and secular worldviews, and recommends numerous efforts to strive toward that ideal. Their work represents a valuable resource for student affairs professionals in addressing the complex dynamics inherent in interfaith work, an arena that needs substantial attention within the context of a divided and polarized American and global society.
