As a representative of the Shoulder to Shoulder Campaign: Standing with American Muslims, Advancing American Ideals, a network of people of faith and goodwill working to understand, counter, and prevent Islamophobia in the U.S., this is a book we have long been waiting for. It is a must-read for our Christian partners, and an invitation for all of us, regardless of our faith or background, to do the work of building an America that moves closer to its ideals of religious liberty and human dignity for all.” - Nina M. Fernando, Executive Director, The Shoulder to Shoulder Campaign

“Piela and Woolf chart new territory by offering Christian leaders accessible liturgical resources for countering Islamophobia. They make a compelling case that worship and ritual are not peripheral but rather essential to a robust Christian response to Islamophobia and to the cultivation of authentic and mutually inspiring relationships between Christians and Muslims."— Todd Green, Author of The Fear of Islam: An Introduction to Islamophobia in the West

“Anna Piela and Michael Woolf draw on their pastoral experience and scholarship to create a wonderful and needed resource for pastors and others who shape worship services. The authors provide thoughtful and helpful ways to develop and experience worship that is transformative in attitudes and practices towards Muslims and, by extension, to people of other faiths.”— Rev. Dr. A. Roy Medley, General Secretary Emeritus, American Baptist Churches
