Wrestling with Faith : 6-Session course
Most people, even the most devout, struggle with issues about God. We sit in the synagogue during the High Holidays and affirm the essentials of Judaism in theory, but when it comes to trusting God with our daily lives, we share a secret, painful fear that God isn't really looking out for us. Many have been brought up under the assumption that mainstream science is incompatible with genuine Jewish faith, so when they see compelling evidence for biological evolution, for example, they feel forced to choose between science and their faith. Wrestling with Faith was created for tackling questions like these, the “big issues” that keep people from intimate faith with God. In Wrestling with Faith, we acknowledge the often unspoken doubts and questions that all people share, as we share their invitation for us to dig deeper for the answers.
Overview: Week 1) I Have Trouble Believing in G-d Week 2) Does God really care? Week 3) Jewish Beliefs Seem Primitive Week 4) A Good G-d Who Does Bad Stuff Week 5) Are Religion and Science at Odds? Week 6) How Can I Relate to a G-d I Cannot See?
