Pastor Don Mackenzie, Rabbi Ted Falcon and Sheikh Jamal Rahman -- known as the Interfaith Amigos -- started working together after 9/11. Since then, they have brought their unique blend of spiritual wisdom and humor to audiences in the US, Canada, Israel-Palestine and Japan. Their work is dedicated to supporting more effective interfaith dialogue that can bring greater collaboration on the major social and economic issues of our time.

Karen Armstrong calls their "exuberant and courageous" new book, Religion Gone Astray: What We Found at the Heart of Interfaith, "an inspiration and example for all of us in these sadly polarized times." Their first book, Getting to the Heart of Interfaith (2009), brought them international attention with coverage from the New York Times, CBS News, BBC Radio, and various NPR programs.

Pastor Don Mackenzie is devoting himself to interfaith work after retiring as Minister and Head of Staff at University Congregational United Church of Christ in Seattle. Ordained in 1970, he is a graduate of Macalester College, Princeton Theological Seminary and New York University. His interest in interfaith began while at Macalester and deepened with his teaching in Lebanon in the year prior to the 1967 Six-Day War.

Rabbi Ted Falcon, PhD, spiritual guide, author, teacher and therapist, has been a student and teacher of Jewish meditation and Kabbalah for over forty years. Ordained in 1968 at the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in Cincinnati, he served in Los Angeles as a congregational and a campus rabbi. In 1975, he earned a doctorate in Professional Psychology. Founder of spiritually-oriented synagogues in Los Angeles and Seattle, his books include Judaism For Dummies and A Journey of Awakening: Kabbalistic Meditations on the Tree of Life.
