Summary: Identity is shaped in part by the core convictions of one's faith. Yet often we are unable see exactly how these are interrelated. By listening to voices from outside the Christian faith tradition, we may be able to more clearly see the role faith plays in shaping one's identity. A panel of Muslim women shared stories of how their faiths shape and inform who they are.
