Interfaithing: The Next Chapter Starts Now

Ari and Anna return with an exciting announcement about the evolution of their Interfaithing podcast and project! This episode marks a new chapter as they expand beyond their previous two seasons into broader community-building work, introducing significant developments that will shape the future of interfaith family support. Topics addressed include: - The launch of "The Interfaithing Rabbi" — Ari's new sub-brand exploring how Judaism relates to other faith traditions, both within interfaith families and through broader clergy collaboration and community engagement. - Anna's ordination as a reverend through the Universal Life Church, bringing her educational background from Union Theological Seminary to serve families seeking clergy support outside traditional denominational boundaries for weddings, baptisms, baby namings, funerals, and more! - Their unique philosophy on interfaith families — not creating a blended "third way" or hybrid tradition, but strengthening both Judaism and Christianity by holding them together in respectful, loving relationship. - Building community through Patreon — plans for Shabbat gatherings, holiday events, and resources for interfaith couples seeking non-judgmental support, practical rituals, and connection with others navigating similar journeys. - Addressing Jewish grandparents' concerns about co-identification and "blendedness," exploring how multiple religious identities can support rather than compete with each other within families. - The powerful mission of interfaith families as peacemakers — demonstrating how faith traditions can live in peace and harmony, raising each other up rather than creating competition and antagonism. - Excitement about "Nobody Wants This" Season 2 on Netflix and how this interfaith relationship story intersects beautifully with their own work! And MUCH MORE!! Join Ari and Anna as they chart this new course, inviting you to be part of a growing community where faith traditions stand alongside each other, strengthened by relationship!
