Ep. 17 - What Did Jew Just Say to Me About Jesus? w/ Bethany Slater
from Growing Up Christian · host Casey Greseth
I think anyone who grew up Christian probably heard a sermon or two on the nation state of Israel, and its importance to the return of Christ. Maybe your family had an "I stand with Israel" bumper sticker. Maybe you even heard your parents/pastor bungle through an explanation of how the Jews are God's chosen people (because it says so in the Bible and they have to take it literally) but might get a pass out of hell, even though they never accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior. Ohhh, if only the rest of us could get out of hell on a technicality! Our guest, today, is Bethany Slater. Bethany was born into a conservative Christian family, and was raised in a very unique kind of Christian community. While most people who find their way out of evangelical Christianity drift into a more liberal variant or drop out of faith completely, Bethany found herself being pulled toward Judaism after dealing with the problem of Christian supersession. After years of studying and learning about the Jewish faith, she eventually converted. Her story is beautiful and fascinating, and we are very excited for you all to hear it.
