Interfaithing: More Than Monotheism—Buddhists, Christians & Beyond

Join Ari and Anna for an illuminating new episode of Interfaithing as they dive into what happens when Jewish, Christian, and even Buddhist traditions meet under one roof! Inspired by an American Buddhist listener's question, this episode tackles the twists, surprises, and spiritual sparks that come when families blend divergent faiths. From shave-worthy Jewish holidays to college classroom revelations, get ready for candid stories, unexpected insights, and plenty of humor as Ari finally reveals his face (literally!) and Anna shares classroom surprises that upend common assumptions about interfaith identity. Topics addressed include: The challenges and opportunities faced by children from interfaith families choosing their faith paths Trends like religious "nones," "dones," and the emerging "ones" who reconnect with spirituality or tradition in unique ways The differences and overlaps in how traditions like Judaism, Christianity, and Buddhism—or "JewBu's"—approach faith, practice, and community Stories from classrooms and family life that highlight generational shifts in religious engagement How interfaith families foster respect, curiosity, and learning across multiple traditions And MUCH MORE!!
