Description

In August, our team attended the 2023 Parliament of the World's Religions in Chicago, Illinois. Since 1893, this interfaith conference has advocated for harmony and dialogue across religious traditions and their believers. This year, In Good Faith presented on a panel (see below for link). Now, we also get to share with you the impromptu interviews Steve conducted at the Parliament.
He speaks first with Rev. Dallas Conyers and her efforts to combat climate change, an overarching theme at the Parliament. Dallas speaks about a series of consecutive incidents that put her life on hold: listen to how Rev. Conyers found healing through religious vigor and scripture.
Steve then speaks with Jaxon Washburn, a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and graduate of Harvard Divinity School. Jaxon walks us through how he became involved with the Parliament and why divinity school was the right choice for him.
