A Might Heart Brings Faiths Together


I've yet to see A Might Heart, the movie based on the murder of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl by al Qaeda and Taliban fighters and starring Angelina Jolie as his wife Mariane, but a screening of the film in LA brought together members of the Christian, Jewish, and Muslim community to talk about the movie, the events surrounding Pearl's death, and how people of faith can work together to bring reconciliation.

Paneklists included Rev. Peter Laarman, Executive Director of Progressive Christians Uniting, Rabbi Haim Dov Beliak of JewsonFirst, and Hussam Ayloush, Ex. Dir of the Council of Arab Islamic Relations in Southern California. Events like these can't solve all our difficulties, but they can help us sort out the issues and bring people of good will together.
