Ordinary Heroes – Episode 366 | Frank Pesce
Host: Bernie Furshpan | hmTv
In this powerful episode of Ordinary Heroes, Bernie Furshpan sits down with faith leader and bridge-builder Frank Pesce, founder of Swords into Plowshares (S2PS), for a deeply personal and forward-looking conversation about hope, responsibility, and action in uncertain times.
Frank shares the vision behind S2PS — a global movement rooted in shared values, reconciliation, and turning conflict into constructive purpose. Together, Bernie and Frank explore the spiritual and human pull of Jerusalem, the urgency of educating young people in a world saturated by misinformation, and the importance of building real relationships across faiths, cultures, and nations.
The conversation touches on the Abraham Accords, agricultural and humanitarian initiatives in Israel, the power of the arts to heal, and why investing in the next generation isn’t optional — it’s essential. This episode is about choosing hope over despair, building bridges instead of walls, and proving that ordinary people can do extraordinary things.
A timely, heartfelt dialogue for anyone who believes the future is still worth building.
