What does it mean to pursue peace in a world shadowed by conflict?
In this episode of A Show of Faith, we tackle this complex question through insightful dialogues among our diverse panel. As we often see global tensions rise, particularly with ongoing situations like the conflict between Ukraine and Russia, our hosts reflect on the intricate relationship between war, peace, and ethical leadership.
Join us as we explore how different faiths view peace and the underlying justice that should accompany it. Rabbi Stuart provides rich insights on the Hebrew word “shalom,” emphasizing that true peace means everything being in its rightful place—not merely the absence of war. Father Mario engages with the principles of Just War Theory, stressing the moral considerations necessary to justify conflict. In between, Rudy shares the millennial perspective, reminding us of the importance of active civic engagement in a world ripe with dissonance.
By delving into these crucial themes, we stimulate awareness about our roles in perpetuating conflict or fostering peace. We invite our audience to reflect on their thoughts regarding current global issues and how dialogue shapes our understanding of complex moral dilemmas. Let's engage in this timely conversation about today's weighty matters of war and justice.
