In Tbilisi, Georgia, a radical experiment in interfaith relations is taking place. The Peace Project is one of the world鈥檚 first to bring a mosque, synagogue, church, and other places of worship together under one roof. Sounds of Muslim prayer, Shabbat services, and Georgian hymns fill the air as worshippers from different faiths mingle and break bread in the communal Hall of Abraham. The project is the brainchild of Malkhaz Songulashvili, a maverick Bishop of Georgia鈥檚 Evangelical-Baptist Church, and is attracting attention from religious leaders around the world.
