- "The Anglican Parish of St. Theodore of Canterbury is situated in a multicultural neighbourhood in Toronto, where the Christian population is a decided minority. Interfaith experiences have a significant impact on the Christian praxis of parishioners. Yet the subject has not received much attention in the course of the Church's teaching. Out of personal background and as the parish priest, the author undertook to find out what would happen if parishioners' interfaith experiences were discussed intentionally with the benefit of formal theological thinking. The theoretical framework operative in the thesis revolves around the spectrum represented by exclusivism, inclusivism and pluralism". -- Abstract, p. vii.
