Religious Interpreting: An open conversation - 0.125 PS

$12.65

Episode Info:

In this episode, we explore the world of religious interpreting — from church services and weddings to funerals, medical and AA Meetings. We discuss what makes this work unique: interpreting scripture, music, and emotion-laden moments often through the lens of personal belief and cultural nuance.

We also touch on the presence of non-certified interpreters, and whether this work should be paid or pro bono. With real talk and practical tips, this episode sheds light on a setting where language, access, and faith come together.
