In this episode, our three hosts–Abeer, Daniel, and Jen–get together to reflect on one year of podcasting and their experiences as it relates to Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza and the ongoing occupation violence throughout Palestine-Israel. They also discuss the meaning of Christmas and its potential to call the church to justice in a time of war, occupation, and violence. This is a serious and fun conversation that gets into everything Christmas from consumerism, to the biblical Christmas story, to cheesy holiday greeting cards.
In the extended episode, the hosts are joined by Saleem, Across the Divide’s producer, and together they answer a fun round of questions about the Christmas season and themselves. To access this extended conversation and others, consider supporting us on Patreon.
