Judaism and Christianity: How Do They Relate? by Rebecca Miller https://padlet.com/rebeccapaigemiller/XnsRelatingtoJudaism This is an attempt to provide a set of resources for Christians who would like to learn more about Judaism and how one is able to relate to a people group who share a sacred text. How are we similar and how are we different? What are common assumptions of one group towards the other? In what ways do Christians hurt their Jewish "cousins"? How can Christians improve their theology in ways that do not hurt the Jewish people? How can we live together in unity while respecting each other's uniqueness and particularity?
