Andrew Larsen, a devoted peacemaker and long-time friend of Peace Catalyst, joins us to talk about a recent trip to Iraq and an unexpected personal meeting with Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, as well as his own approach to bridge-building in the Middle East and the U.S. Andy has worked as a consultant to churches and nonprofit groups seeking to understand “the other,” particularly Muslims. He empowers peacemaking initiatives through photography, personal relationships, and building a network among Muslim, Christian, and advocacy groups to build bridges between divergent communities.   Edited by Nicole GibsonMusic: Soulmates by Yigit AtillaSupport the podcast: https://www.peacecatalyst.org/peacemaking-podcast
