Why are there no other faith traditions (Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Native American, et al) in the Partnership?
The Partnership was established in 1993 on the foundation of a shared biblical perspective. At our origin, we were able to take advantage of long-standing institutional relationships between Jewish and Christian organizations in the United States, which facilitated undertaking what has been a complex new mission for all of us. We respect the concern and care for creation shown by other faiths and wisdom traditions. Programs sponsored by our partner groups at the local and regional level frequently invite and include representatives of other faith communities, as well as people with no immediate religious affiliation. But ours is an effort rooted in biblical faith.
