About the Book
What if world religions treated you and each other with the same kindness, respect and equality that you receive when you dial 9-1-1? What does fire department customer service have to offer the world’s religions about treating all people with dignity and respect? If the word “religion” literally means “to bring together”, then why do world religions inadvertently foster divisive exclusivity? Fire Department Religion demonstrates that if the world’s religions adopted fire service customer service principles, religion would finally bring people together, promote universal human rights, create opportunities for world peace, and ultimately lead to a validation of the One God whose voice we all hear in equally beautiful ways.
