Foundations of a Thoughtful Judaism: Faith

in

Taught by Rabbi Holzman
Tuesdays, 7:00-8:30pm, on Zoom only
January 28, February 25, March 18, April 22, May 20

In our next section of the four-part Foundations curriculum from the Shalom Hartman Institute of North America, we explore big ideas about faith. Where does faith come from? What are the models in Jewish tradition for a complex relationship with God which includes reverence and joy, but also anger and argument? Where does doubt fit into a life of faith? Where do Jews who do not believe fit in? Join us as we delve into these questions and more.
