Spiritual growth and maturity is knowing and walking alongside your neighbor that views the world differently. Dr. King speaks of becoming a World House. If we are to be a World House we are to know every religion and every human as a part of the human family. These famous words still ring true today as antisemitism is on the rise.
In this episode, Bishop Wright has a conversation with Rabbi Peter Berg of The Temple, the oldest Jewish worshiping community in Atlanta. They discuss the history of Jews and Christians walking alongside one another in Atlanta, antisemitism and disinformation, and where we go from here. Listen in to the full conversation.
