This Advent, while global Christians prepare to commemorate the arrival of the Prince of Peace, our Palestinian kin in Gaza suffer unthinkable violence. Their cries for deliverance, echoing those of two millennia ago, seem to be falling unheard in the United States. To see their pain and hear their cries, US Christians must move beyond information to transformation...from webinar to worship.On December 23, the special worship gathering "Christ in the Rubble" was live-streamed from Christmas Lutheran Church in Bethlehem, featuring this sermon by Rev. Dr. Munther Isaac.  Central to this liturgy of lament is the prophetic message that if Jesus was born today, he would be born "under the rubble." [Co-organized by Red Letter Christians, Christ at the Checkpoint Conference, Bethlehem Bible College and Churches for Middle East Peace; supported and sponsored by kindred organizations]

[Virtual Immersion] Christ in the Rubble - Live from Bethlehem - Munther Isaac

In a world accustomed to conflict, Mending Divides offers a refreshing counterpoint. Hosted by Dr. Jer Swigart, this Global Immersion podcast dives deep into the conflicts we’re all dealing with in conversation with those who think deeply about them.

This is not a prescriptive conversation about how to build peace. Instead, Mending Divides features the human beings behind the work. It's a portal into their stories, analyses, and practices. As we encounter the myriad ways they understand and navigate their conflicts, we’ll discover who we must become to face our own.

Expect honest, unfiltered conversations that: 
- Challenge your assumptions: Discover diverse and often unexpected paths to peace.
- Illuminate new perspectives: Understand the roles that religion, culture, and biology play in shaping the complexities of conflict and our approaches to it.
- Offer hope: Hear stories of resilience, creativity, and bravery that will inspire us to live likewise.

Join us as we explore the many faces and facets of conflict and peace. Learn more at globalimmerse.org or follow along on Instagram @globalimmerse and wherever you get your podcasts.
