Welcome to "The Journalism of Everything Podcast," where curiosity knows no bounds. In today's thought-provoking episode, your host, journalist Darisse Smith, delves into one of the most complex and contentious regions on the planet: Israel. Brought up in both progressive Southern Baptist and Episcopal traditions, Darisse shares her personal journey of the contrasting biblical teachings she encountered as a Southern Baptist and Episcopalian. She then tackles a rapid-fire, condensed history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, from the Balfour Declaration to the ongoing 2025 strife, offering a panoramic view of this century-long territorial and cultural battle.
The highlight of the episode is a profound interview featuring Bishop William Gregg, an Episcopal Bishop with a PhD in Theology from Notre Dame. Together, they explore why Israel holds such significance in the Bible and the intricate layers of modern geopolitical and religious contexts. Are the Israelites still God's chosen people? How do biblical prophecies shape today's world views and conflicts? And critically, can critiquing a nation be separated from condemning a faith? Join us as we peel back the layers on Israel, prophecy, and what being "God's chosen people" means in a modern world of cultural pluralism and political tumult. Don’t miss part one of this captivating discussion, and be sure to tune in next episode for the continuation with Bishop Gregg.
