With a new afterword Acts of Faith is a remarkable account of growing up Muslim in America and coming to believe in religious pluralism, from one of the most prominent faith leaders in the United States. Eboo Patel' s story is a hopeful and moving testament to the power and passion of young people-and of the world-changing potential of an interfaith youth movement.
"A beautifully written story of discovery and hope. " --President Bill Clinton "[A] visionary book, part coming-of-age memoir and part call-to-action . . . A shining vision of the possibilities of interfaith cooperation and pluralistic discourse. " --Adam Mansbach, The Boston Globe"The best recent American statement about living one' s faith in a pluralistic society. " --Robin Lovin, Christian Century"Remarkable . . . A well-written, compelling testimony to how one man is trying to ensure that different religions can live side by side in peace. " --Paul Raushenbush, Beliefnet. com "Eboo Patel is an exciting new voice of a new America: diverse but not divisive, hopeful but not utopian. He speaks for all of us from a rising generation of bright, brown, and bold Americans who have much to offer a country embarking on a new millennium and in need of new blood. " --Shaykh Hamza Yusuf, executive director of the Zaytuna Institute
