The twenty-four-hour interreligious conversation centered on themes of sacred community, learning, and worship. Shawn Landres of Synagogue 3000 was an organizer of the gathering; Ryan Bolger was one of the keynote speakers and participants. This article reflects on some of the themes that surfaced then and subsequently, and it suggests new categories of analysis for the sociological study of twenty-first century congregational life and interreligious dialogue.In January 2006, two paracongregational organizations, Emergent/U.S. and Synagogue 3000, convened a meeting of innovative Christian and Jewish religious leaders.
