Over the course of history, narratives have been woven about diverse people and communities, some uplifting and others divisive. It is often far too simple to categorize individuals without delving into their multifaceted identities, their rich histories, their vibrant cultures, and their deep connections to the land they call home.

Discover the extraordinary story of Bishara Awad and his family, a Palestinian Christian rooted in the heart of Bethlehem. Through their resilience, they've not only created Bethlehem Bible College but also nurtured pastors, educators, and peacemakers in a land fraught with conflict. Theirs is a story that transcends borders and boundaries, a narrative that underscores the unwavering strength of unity and the beauty of a culture that thrives amid adversity.

In "Yet In The Dark Streets Shining," we're invited to see the world differently. It challenges us to recognize the divinity within every human being, urging us to embrace our shared humanity. This story is a testament to the power of compassion and understanding in a time when peace is needed more than ever. It's a call to appreciate the beauty of diverse cultures and the potential for harmony in our collective human experience.

This is part one of two in this podcast series.
