    Who We Are

    Testimonials

    Many renowned religious and educational leaders have praised the Institute's work. Among them are:

    --Rabbi Irving Greenberg, President
    The National Jewish Center for Learning and Leadership


    "The Institute for Christian and Jewish Studies is the most comprehensive, pioneering combination in the U.S., and, per-haps the world, of advanced thought, clergy involvement, and lay participants..."



    --Dr. William Richardson, President
    The Kellogg Foundation, Battle Creek Michigan


    "The Institute for Christian and Jewish Studies embodies the kind of organizational innovation and pedagogical imagination needed to confront the hostilities which pit one religious group against another."



    --William Cardinal Keeler, Archbishop of Baltimore and
    President of the National Conference of Catholic Bishops


    "The Institute for Christian and Jewish Studies has become a great resource for the faith communities in and beyond the Baltimore area."



    --Blu Greenberg, Distinguished Author and Lecturer

    "To heal the wounds, to enable brothers and sisters to under-stand each other, to promote a climate of peace and mutual respect while affirming our differences -- that is God's work. And the work of the ICJS."



    --Dr. Martin Marty, University of Chicago, described by Time as the most influential interpreter of religion in the U.S.

    "We have enough models of conflict and too few of under-standing and resolution: Prosper, ICJS!"



    --Rabbi Michael Cook, Professor of Early Christian Literature Hebrew Union College, Cincinnati

    "Far and away, in my view, the best program of its type, and certainly the model of what we should be doing in all areas of our country and in Europe as well."



    --Dr. Mary C. Boys, Union Theological Seminary, New York and Professor Sara S. Lee, Hebrew Union College, Los Angeles

    "ICJS honors the particularity of faith traditions while fostering a genuine commitment to religious pluralism. Such organiza-tions are vital to the health of religion and to North American society."



    --Dr. Calvin W. Burnett, President, Coppin State College

    "The ICJS provides needed education which breaks through the walls of distrust separating religious and racial groups."



    --Rev. Daniel Harrington, S.J., Western School of Theology

    "The ICJS session in which I participated so stimulated me that I wrote a book, John's Thought and Theology, in response to it."
