Bonus Episode: Breaking the Glass - Reflections on Interfaith Relationships

We are thrilled to feature an episode of a new podcast in the Jewish pod-o-sphere, as a bonus episode on our podcast feed! This episode is the third in a new series called Breaking the Glass: Reflections on Interfaith Relationships. Breaking the Glass is a podcast series from Jewish Rhody Media reflecting on the experiences of multifaith couples and families in Jewish communities and beyond. A series that asks its listeners to reimagine traditional ideas of community, family, and partnership, Breaking the Glass is a candid acknowledgement of how our experiences shape each of us, in ways both beautiful and difficult.

-------------------------------

What happens when force of habit becomes, well, forced? Breaking the Glass's third episode, entitled "Breaking the News, Pt. 2," surveys the institutional responses to multifaith marriage that have cast it into the corners of communal life for far too long. Faith leaders, multifaith marriage advocates and couples break down the role – and toll – of emotions in communal decisions, helping us to break the news to ourselves: multifaith couples are looking for a place in religious communities, and it’s high time they are fully welcome.
