Fundamentals of Judaism

Have you been part of Jewish communities for years, but always wanted to understand more about Jewish life and practice?  Are you new to our community?  Are you considering conversion?  This class is for you!  This course is an introduction to the major ideas and practices of modern Jewish life, particularly as they are lived in the GJC community. You will get a sense of the Jewish things there are to do and learn and think about, some practice in those things, and an opportunity to reflect on what they might mean to you.

Joshua Gutoff has written and taught about Jewish topics for more than 30 years and has worked with students of all ages and backgrounds.  A member of Minyan Masorti here, he received both rabbinic ordination and a doctorate in education at the Jewish Theological Seminary.
