Multi-faith engagement does not require less conviction.
It requires deeper humility.
Faith leaders can hold their beliefs with integrity while building trust with neighbors who believe differently.
We are honored to join @iclrsorg in Oxford exploring what it means to move from interfaith dialogue to meaningful multifaith engagement.
Dialogue reaches its greatest value when it leads to relationships, collaboration, and shared action.
We are grateful to engage with an inspiring group of global clerics, humanitarians, scholars, royalty, and government leaders who are committed to building stronger communities across lines of faith and conviction.
Day one is done! @MultiFaithNN@iclrsorg & the Oxford Islamic Center. Focusing on what it means to move from Interfaith Dialogue to Multifaith Engagement. Dialogue that doesn’t lead to engagement is wasted. From global clerics & humanitarians to scholars & royalty & governments

Read that again.
That one sentence carries a great deal of weight. A truth that should shape how we think about dignity, religious freedom, and the way we treat one another.
Faith leaders can help lead the way toward a healthier public life.
It does not have to be fueled by suspicion, contempt, doom-scrolling, or constant reaction.
It needs wisdom, character, and leaders willing to pursue the common good.
Reflecting on our retreat a few years ago in Sudan.
Christian, Muslim, and Jewish leaders walked together, listened deeply, and modeled the kind of friendship our founders believed in: rooted in conviction, marked by respect, and committed to the common good.
Yesterday in Chattanooga, civic and faith leaders gathered for a conversation on religious liberty and civil engagement as part of the America 250 celebration.

Mulit-faith INSPIRE gatherings in Dallas featured shared meals, dialogue on inspirational women and spiritual practices, and a clothing drive supporting a local children’s closet, advancing multifaith peacebuilding and community connection.
Words shape how people understand a mission.
We use the word multi-faith intentionally. It reflects the distinct faith traditions at the table and the conviction that real engagement does not require flattening those differences. Naming that clearly matters.
Big cultural change is often talked about in national terms. But trust is usually built much closer to home.
Change starts local.
Trust is built in congregations, neighborhoods, and cities where leaders choose relationship, service, and honest dialogue.

Before communities become more compassionate, they usually become more connected. Before public life becomes healthier, people have to choose to know one another.
Relationships are not the extra part of this work. They are where change begins.
Why multi-faith? Because trust does not build itself.
It grows through relationships, shared service, and honest dialogue that helps communities become more resilient.
This week in Houston, leaders from across faiths are coming together for a Safety Net retreat—building meaningful relationships, strengthening multi-faith connection, and pursuing a shared purpose for our communities.
