On Sunday January 12, we began our 2-month panel with an astrologer, Greek Orthodox priest, and a leader in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. We had a rich discussion of the STORY that each of their faith traditions tell about who we are, why there is brokenness in this world, and hope for the future. You can listen to the program here:

In December, we hosted our first gathering of local spiritual leaders who were guests on Faith Matters on KSQD in 2019. It was wonderful to have these individuals from a variety of traditions share with one another informally over a simple meal. These conversations are critical to have as influential faith leaders come together to get to know one another and build bridges of understanding. We hope to continue to have these gatherings in 2020–both on and off the air.

Sorry due to unforeseen circumstances, tomorrow’s Faith Matters program has been cancelled. A previously-recorded program exploring the concept of COMFORT with a rabbi, pastor, and Buddhist nun will air instead. Stay tuned for an all-new panel starting on Sunday, January 12.

On Sunday 11/10 we started our next 2-month panel with 3 new guests representing the Vedic (Hindu), Pagan, and evangelical traditions.
