Book to be feature of Interfaith Week

OGDEN -- "Getting to the Heart of Interfaith: The Eye-Opening, Hope-Filled Friendship of a Pastor, a Rabbi and a Sheikh" (Skylight Paths, $16.99) will be the featured book for the 2012 Interfaith Week in Ogden.

Organizers of Interfaith Week, Feb. 4-11, are encouraging area residents to start reading the book now, so they will be prepared to attend a discussion on the book during this year's celebration.

The book, written by the Rev. Don Mackenzie, Rabbi Ted Falcon and Sheikh Jamal Rahman, explores the similarities and differences among major faiths and discusses ways people of differing faiths can respect one another and work together.

Brian Davis, director of the Religion and Ethics Resource Network at Weber State University, will facilitate the book discussion at 7 p.m. Feb. 9. The location is still to be determined. Information about the event will follow in the religion pages of the Standard-Examiner.
