| Summary: | The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has affected all aspects of life, including interreligious engagement. This article offers one interpretation of the key markers that should underpin a distinctively Christian engagement with other religious traditions in the current climate. It develops suggestions around the three “theological virtues” – namely, faith, hope, and love – as it is argued that these make the Christian way of being in the world distinctive and attractive. Each virtue is defined first in a broad way, and then in specifically Christian terms, before it is explored in its various applications to interreligious engagement. The article focuses on the opportunities and challenges of engagement in pandemic times throughout, indicating areas for future development in the process. Its conclusion highlights the challenges associated with interreligious engagement in the digital context. |
