Drawing upon a diverse range of historical examples and contemporary cases, The Religious Dimensions of Shared Spaces offers a focused and systematic analysis of space sharing involving religious groups or organizations. While all space-sharing arrangements share certain similarities, the involvement of religious groups or organizations adds a unique dimension to the discussion. This book explores the ways in which religious groups or organizations invest meaning in the spaces they use and share, including \"sacred space.\" It also examines when and why religious groups or organizations enter into space-sharing arrangements with other parties, whether religious or secular, and how they structure and maintain their arrangements, including handling tensions that may arise. The book also highlights cases where religion does not matter in space sharing, even when religious groups or organizations are involved. Case studies include internal congregational groups that negotiate the use of shared facilities, arrangements between congregations and external groups or organizations, multifaith partnerships, and shared spaces in secular venues.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 558g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 238 x 157 x 22 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781793639349\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paul D.
