In this episode Chris & Riley are joined by Dr. Sahar Qumsiyeh.

She recounts her vivid experiences living under a brutally segregationist regime and how it shaped her upbringing. She describes her conversion and ultimate reconciliation to the Jewish people as she prayed for and received the love of Christ for her fellow children of God.
