A Peace Proposal for Christianity and Judaism with Ellen Charry | Created In The Image of God 206

What does it take for faith traditions with centuries of complicated history to move from uneasy armistice toward genuine peace? In this illuminating episode, theologian Ellen Charry—Emerita Professor of Theology at Princeton—reflects on a lifelong journey that began as a curious Jewish child and transformed her into a bridge-builder between worlds. Ellen is frank about her own story: growing up Jewish, marrying into a rabbinic family, converting to Christianity, and ultimately claiming a unique vantage point from which to sponsor dialogue few are willing to undertake. Now, in the face of rising antisemitism and renewed tensions worldwide, Ellen is working on a peace proposal that moves beyond polite tolerance. Her forthcoming book seeks to reimagine the relationship between Judaism and Christianity not as inherited rivalry, but as a partnership rooted in God’s desire for flourishing, mutual understanding, and shared purpose. She argues that the well-being of creation itself depends on such reconciliation—because wherever division lingers, “creation languishes.” Across this conversation, Ellen charitably examines what it would mean for traditions—not just individuals—to make peace and “share God.” The episode is a testament to hard-won wisdom, honest spirituality, and the hope that old enmities can give way to something radically new. If you care about faith, history, or practical peacemaking, this is a conversation you will not want to miss.
