Christian, Jews, & Muslims: What Similarities do they Share?

This was something D'Angelo worked on last week at Sunday School and then shared during the "Time with the Youth" portion of today's worship.  Apparently, they worked some on comparative religions last weekend and examined some of the basic differences and similarities between Christianity, Judaism, and Islam.  D' was asked to share what he learned.
He learned that all three religions worship one God.  All three consider Jerusalem to be very special and all three religions think that Abraham is a very good and wise man.  And all three religions possess holy books and use important symbols.  D' did a good job of clearly presenting his information to the congregation and he was well-received.  Obviously, there are many more differences the further separate the three religions, but I thought he did a good job communicating some basic elements of the three.  I'm very proud of my boy.
