The Role of Church Leaders in a Pluralist Society

Abstract

In a pluralist society characterized by diversity in beliefs, values, and worldviews, the role of church leaders is pivotal in fostering dialogue, understanding, and cooperation among different faith communities. This paper examines the challenges and opportunities faced by church leaders in pluralist societies and explores strategies for effective interfaith engagement. Drawing on theological principles and practical examples, the paper argues that church leaders play a crucial role in promoting peace, tolerance, and mutual respect in a diverse society.
