Abstract	:	This Doctor of Ministry final project is a longitudinal impact study of the advanced Building Abrahamic Partnerships ( BAP II ) interfaith training course for Jews, Christians, and Muslims offered at Hartford Seminary in 2007, 2008, and 2009. As director of the Building Abrahamic Partnerships program at the seminary, the author was one of three designers and co-facilitators of this training. The project, as an exercise in action research, assesses the effectiveness of the course in terms of enhancing interfaith leadership capacities, and it identifies twenty characteristics required of a competent leader in this emerging field. The methodology and data are based on telephone or SKYPE interviews with 59 out of the 61 participants in BAP II, along with interviews of the other co-facilitators. The evaluation is both quantitative and qualitative. The project includes contextual examination of the nature and importance of interfaith leadership, the historical background and institutional setting for the BAP program and the advanced leadership training, and the author's personal reflections on the vocational requirements for this field. The latter dimension includes a Jewish theological foundation for engaging in Jewish-Christian-Muslim relations.
