Religious freedom is foundational to American culture. While many churchgoers and clergy are accepting of some religious pluralism, Islam is often misunderstood or even feared by US Christians. Anna Piela and Michael Woolf provide much-needed background information about the history of Islam, the origins of religious diversity as an American value, and examples of how Islamophobia impacts our culture negatively. They invite the church to counter these biases and misgivings through study, worship, and prayer, using liturgical tools linked with the lectionary.
