Crossing the Cultural Divide
In a time of deep polarization, we at New Wine, New Wineskins explore how we can build relational bridges through Jesus across various cultural divides. Each episode of our podcast Crossing the Cultural Divide engages voices from diverse backgrounds to reflect on how the triune God’s love stretches us to cross boundaries, confront injustice, and embody faith and hope in a fractured world. Join us as we pursue truth and reconciliation through thoughtful dialogue and faithful presence in dependence on God's Spirit.

In Episode 9 New Wine Director Paul Louis Metzger reflects upon the importance of doing more than making New Year's resolutions. We need to cultivate joyful resolve to follow Jesus amid suffering and trauma in daily life throughout the year. He then interviews Patristics scholar Dr. Jon M. Robertson on St. Athanasius's work on the incarnation of Christ our mediator and the teaching's importance for cultural engagement today.
