Judaism Inbound: An Introduction to Judaism for Everyone

Facilitated by Rabbi Miriam Terlinchamp

Take a deep dive into Judaism’s core ideas, texts, and practices. This class
explores what being Jewish has looked like in the past and scouts ahead for
what it could look like in the future. Part lecture series, part study club,
and part spiritual laboratory, this series is designed to teach about and
challenge mainstream Judaism. This introduction to Judaism course is built
around the notion that Judaism is constantly changing and is in a period of
especially radical change. We believe that there is no singular way to teach
“what Jews believe” or “what Jews do.”

Judaism Inbound is an introduction to Judaism class that covers Judaism as a
religion, Judaism as history, and Judaism as a culture, with a “spiritual but
not religious” approach. It is meant for a wide variety of people, but a
perfect course for those considering conversion, in multi-faith relationships,
seeking to unlearn/relearn a new framing around Judaism, or just curious about
Judaism.

Course participants will also have opportunities for learning and community
building, including Shabbat dinners, special topic workshops, a 24-hour
retreat, rabbinic mentorship, and more. These benefits are optional and
provided at no additional cost for enrolled students.
