A deeper look at a new podcast series on polarization and our call to be peacemakers.
As a nation we are playing cultural and political Whac-a-Mole. On college campuses, at workplaces, in houses of worship, and even at the Thanksgiving table, it’s not just the ideas that we are trying to beat back. We’re using verbal mallets to pummel people because of their different views about the world or perceived threats to our identity.
As we’ve become more polarized and divided than ever, it feels like meaningful, respectful conversations between people who disagree have become a thing of the past. Is it still possible to have difficult conversations with people who see the world differently from us without sacrificing our deep convictions and beliefs? What is the role of Christians in this moment? How can Christians be peacemakers within their churches, and among the larger society?
From the National Association of Evangelicals comes a new podcast series, Difficult Conversations. It’s an exploration of how we ended up so polarized, and how Christians can become the peacemakers that Jesus called blessed. Hosted by NAE President Walter Kim, this series will share incredible stories of people who’ve stepped into enemy territory for the sake of building bridges, and you’ll hear from experts on why difficult conversations are so hard, how to have them, and why they matter for the kingdom of God.
The series features:
- Jonathan Haidt, renowned social psychologist and author of “The Anxious Generation”
- Dr. Francis Collins, acclaimed scientist and served as director of the National Institutes of Health during the COVID pandemic
- Derwin Gray, lead pastor of Transformation Church in Indian Land, NC
