    Episode 3.17 Attacks on Our Muslim Neighbors

    Is it really Christian to attack Muslims? To claim that "sharia" is a threat to all of us? That the Muslim faith is inherently violent? Shaimaa Zayan of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) joins Kim Batchelor to talk about what CAIR is, to explain sharia and how it applies only to Muslims, and discuss the current threats to Muslims by Texas leaders, candidates, and Christian nationalists. She also explains how we can all be better allies, and Christians can be more Christ-like as we support our Christian neighbors. Enjoyed this episode? Connect with us some more at Northaven.org!
