In July 2017 HRH Prince Ghazi bin Muhammad of Jordan, Professor Paul S. Fiddes and Dr Minlib Dallh, OP, met at a historic Christian pilgrimage site in Jordan for a conversation about love of God and neighbour. The conversation-partners were all members of the research team for the ‘Love in Religion’ project at Regent’s Park College, Oxford, sponsored by the John Templeton Foundation. The place of the conversation was ‘Bethany Beyond Journey’, traditionally the site of the baptism of Jesus Christ and the beginning of his ministry, which formed part of the early Christian pilgrimage route between Jerusalem, the Jordan River and Mount Nebo.
