Congratulations to our Client

The Elijah Interfaith Institute, led by Dr. Alon Goshen- Gottstein, was awarded a $200,000 planning grant by the John Templeton Foundation, for the planning and piloting for a inter-religious study of the concept of religious genius as a new category for the study and appreciation of saints and holy people in world religions, creating thereby a new area of academic study and identifying the commonalities in this field among the world's religions. The purpose of the grant is to test the idea and to prepare a much more substantial multi-year project that would cultivate the notion of religious genius and take it to the academic and religious communities worldwide.
