Episode 41: David’s Visit to Parliament
David attended the Parliament of the World's Religions in Chicago this past September. This episode features micro-interviews with attendees from various parts of the world. The significance of the Parliament of the World's Religions in its hometown, where it has been bringing people together on the shores of Lake Michigan for 130 years, was celebrated. This year, the return to in-person gatherings enriched this legacy, bringing together new people and collective hope. Attendees from 95 countries made this the most internationally attended event in the history of the Parliament. Our shared call to conscience was celebrated, with diverse voices of faith, spiritual, and political leaders engaging in discussions at the forefront of threats to freedom, democracy, and human rights worldwide.
