Access Judaism: Personal Inventory of Belief

Hosted By: Keeping It Sacred (KITS)

What experiences have defined your spiritual path so far? How would you characterize your theological outlook? Join this class to consider your belief system, and learn about various Jewish theological traditions, from the commanding God to the force of Nature, from the inexplicable to the acutely involved. No experience necessary. All are welcome.

This is one class in a 16-class series called Access Judaism, intentionally designed by Rabbi Heather Miller. Taken together, classes feature a broad spectrum of Jewish subjects in the realm of history, rituals, culture, philosophy, law, and spirituality. These classes, which include post-class reflection questions and responses, can also count towards requirements for conversion or adult B’nai mitzvah.


No experience necessary. All are welcome!
All classes are FREE. No one will be turned away for lack of funds.
