Interfaithing: Can We Talk About Israel?
Description
Join Ari and Anna on a powerful episode of Interfaithing as they tackle one of the most challenging topics for interfaith families: conversations about Israel.

Topics addressed include:
-
The emotional weight of Israel for Jews and how partners can respectfully broach sensitive topics
-
Historical and theological perspectives on Israel in both Jewish and Christian contexts—from Zionism to Christian Zionism and the role of apocalyptic beliefs
-
The impact of current events on Jewish identity, antisemitism, and family dynamics in interfaith households
-
Navigating justice, nonviolence, and the meaning of peace through interfaith dialogue
-
Why curiosity and open-hearted conversation matter for couples facing difficult issues
And MUCH MORE!!
